Air-cooled heat exchangers forced vs induced draft

Air-cooled Heat Exchangers Forced vs Induced Draft 

Advantages and disadvantages of forced and induced draft air-cooled heat exchangers are shown here to aid in selection. 

Less possibility of the hot effluent air recirculating around to the intake of the sections. The hot air is dis- 

Less effect of sun, rain, and hail, since 60% of the surface area of the sections is covered. 

Increased capacity in the event of fan failure, since the natural draft stack effect is much greater with induced draft.
