Industrial Descaler for Aerospace Equipment
Descaling Applications in the Aerospace Industry
Applications in the aerospace industry often prioritize the use of water-operated equipment. Over time, scale and mineral deposits can build up on this equipment, causing issues with its operation and reducing productivity. Descaling aerospace applications is essential to its efficiency and performance. Water-operated equipment that requires regular descaling in the aerospace industry includes:
- Boilers
- Heat Exchangers
- Cooling Towers
- Condensers
Boilers
Boilers use combustion heat to heat water or create steam. They accumulate scale that can affect efficiency, performance, and cost-effectiveness. Descaling should be part of regular maintenance procedures in boilers to ensure optimal performance, effectively transfer heat, and prolong the lifespan of equipment.
Heat Exchangers
Transferring heat from a gas or liquid to another gas or liquid without contact, heat exchangers save and repurpose energy for heating and cooling applications. Scale buildup can affect the equipment’s ability to transfer heat in both shell and tube heat exchangers, leading to increased costs and potential damage. Regularly cleaning and descaling heat exchangers eliminates the risk of costly repairs, shutdowns, or equipment replacements.
Cooling Towers
Cooling towers transfer heat out of water for reuse. Hot water is sprayed across a heat transfer surface, and then cool air is brought up through the equipment to cool the water. In cooling towers, scale buildup can reduce water flow, restrict airflow, and reduce the ability to transfer heat effectively, leading to lower efficiency and higher costs. Descaling cooling towers is necessary for creating a controlled environment in aerospace applications.
Condensers
Condensers convert steam to liquid to recycle heat from gas. When scale builds up in condensers, it lowers the efficiency of the facility due to decreased heat exchange. Scale buildup can result in higher costs and reduced performance, leading to long-term negative effects in condenser equipment. As part of regular maintenance procedures, descaling condensers can minimize downtime, increase energy efficiency, and reduce costs.
Why is Water Scale Harmful in the Aerospace Industry?
In aerospace applications, the build-up of scale and mineral deposits can cause loss of performance and efficiency, as well as potentially damage equipment. Scale acts as an insulator in various heat transfer equipment, restricting the ability to conduct heat. The following challenges may arise as a result of scale buildup in aerospace equipment:
- Reduces heat transfer efficiency and negatively impacts conductivity
- Leads to increased energy consumption and higher operating costs
- Uneven heating surfaces, which may cause hotspots or damage equipment
- Restriction of water flow causing potential overheating or failure of critical components
- May compromise the quality of production, increase downtime, and require additional maintenance
