What are heat Transfer Oils?
Posted by Hamid Shakouri on 3rd Sep 2024
Heat Transfer Oils are oils designed to carry and transfer heat in industrial systems that require precise temperature control and are intended for use in closed indirect heating installations. Heat transfer fluids play a crucial role in various industrial processes and applications. They are formulated from highly refined base stocks that are resistant to thermal cracking and chemical oxidation. This type of oil must have several unique characteristics including good thermal conductivity, Purity of oil, Excellent thermal stability, good oxidation stability, low carbon residue, High, Flash Point, and Fire Point.

What is synthetic heat transfer fluid?
Engineered for optimal performance in demanding industrial heating applications, synthetic thermal fluids boast a broad operating temperature range, exceptional heat transfer efficiency, and outstanding resistance to degradation, corrosion, and fouling. Most Synthetic heat transfer oils are artificial aromatic heat transfer fluids that demonstrate versatility by being applicable in both liquid and vapor phases. They exhibit outstanding heat transfer capabilities and possess favorable fluid properties, making them particularly well-suited for low-temperature applications.
Performance Benefits
Low Viscosity
Excellent Low-Temperature Performance
Vapor Phase Operation
