Railway Vehicles

With the rapid development of railway industry, electric locomotive has obtained a great progress. As a result, heat exchanger, which is used to cool down the main transformer and converter of electric locomotive, also improves a lot both in its structure and function, and higher requests have been raised.

Old electric locomotive mainly adopts copper heat exchanger which has a big size, heavy weight, low heat exchanging capacity and high cost. In order to meet the market requirements, Metalli has designed and developed aluminum heat exchanger with compact structure, excellent performance, and high reliability. The potential risks such as vibration, corrosion, and sand blocking, which may cause the decrease in heat transfer efficiency, have been taken into account while designing. Besides, according to the fan characteristic curve and fluid resistance characteristic curve of the entire cooling system, in the guarantee of the heat exchange capacity of cooler, calculation has been processed to optimize the performance of ventilation system and oil-water system.
