Enclosed circulated heat transfer systems for industrial applications such as process industry, chemical plants, textile producers etc. and in household equipment such as oil filled radiators.
Advice
The life of Thermia oils depends on the design and usage of the system. If the system is well designed and not subjected to abnormal workloads, the life can be for many years. It is important to monitor oil condition regularly as rates of change in physical characteristics are more significant than actual values. The properties that should be monitored are viscosity, acidity, flash point (open and closed) and insolubles content. Advice on applications not covered in this leaflet may be obtained from your Shell representative.
Thermia B can be used in high temperature continuous heat transfer equipment with the following application limits:
Thermia B
Max. film temperature Max. bulk temperature 340C 320C
High oxidation and thermal stability Thermia B is based on carefully selected highly refined mineral oils. The rates of oil cracking and oxidation are very small, giving long oil life. This assumes an efficient fluid heater with good pump circulation that the film temperatures on the heater surface do not exceed the limits above. Low viscosity and high heat transfer coefficient Low viscosity enables excellent fluidity and heat transfer also at lower temperatures. Good solvency Non-corrosive Low vapour pressure Non-toxic oils and easy disposal Mineral oil heat transfer fluids are safer to handle than synthetic fluids. After service they can easily be collected as used oil for recycling or disposal.
