õlijahutid

õlijahutid are devices designed to lower the temperature of lubricating oil in various mechanical systems. Their primary function is to prevent the oil from overheating, which can lead to a reduction in its viscosity, decreased lubricating properties, and potential damage to the machinery.

These cooling devices are commonly found in engines, transmissions, and hydraulic systems. The principle of operation typically involves circulating the hot oil through a heat exchanger where it comes into contact with a cooler medium. This cooler medium is often air or a coolant fluid, such as water or glycol.

Air-cooled õlijahutid utilize fins to increase the surface area exposed to the airflow, facilitating heat transfer. Oil-cooled õlijahutid, on the other hand, employ a separate cooling circuit, similar to a radiator in a car's engine cooling system.

The design and size of an õlijahuti depend on the specific application and the amount of heat that needs to be dissipated. Factors such as the operating temperature, the volume of oil, and the heat generated by the machinery are all taken into consideration during the selection and design process. Proper functioning of an õlijahuti is crucial for maintaining the performance and longevity of the equipment it serves.
