This issue includes our 2022 reader picks on topics relating to process cooling. What makes a reader pick? Primarily, it’s based on how popular these articles have been on our websites over time.
When choosing which low temperature heat transfer fluid to use for your process, data such as density, viscosity and pour point need to be taken into consideration. In Process Cooling’s annual Cooling Capabilities Chart on Low Temperature Heat Transfer Fluids, we have compiled all of the data you need to choose a fluid for low temperature heat transfer fluid processes.
A heat transfer fluid with low electrical conductivity is essential for applications where electronics or electrical components are cooled either directly or indirectly (using a heat exchanger/cold plate) by the fluid.

When planning a low temperature process chiller installation, the compressors, heat transfer fluids, insulation and controls all play roles in a successful implementation.
Developing an industrial process chiller system for low temperature applications has many challenges, but it can be — and has been — done. This article discusses common challenges and shares insights into research that was used to design a chiller system that operates to -45°F (-43°C) fluid temperatures.
Fluid degradation can lead to expensive maintenance costs and shutdowns due to fouling and loss of heat transfer capacity. Fluid reclaiming allows a processor to reprocess and reuse degraded fluid.
Thirty years ago, heat transfer fluid (HTF) manufacturers would sell virgin fluids at inflated prices and dispose of the used thermal fluids without regard for the potential of remediating the used fluid. Times have changed.
Specifications for Calflo, Petro-Therm and Purity FG HTF heat transfer fluids, manufactured by Petro-Canada Lubricants Inc., have been added to aspenOne Engineering software. The companies expect the additions to the Aspen HYSYS and Aspen Plus modeling software to provide engineers with a range of solutions when designing a heat transfer system.
