Heat Transfer Equipment is used for transfer of heat from a hot fluid to cold fluid that is the exchange of thermal energy between physical systems. The flow of heat represents the movement of energy from one place to another, and temperature is the measure of thermal energy available. There are three primary mechanisms for heat transfer: conduction or diffusion, convection, and radiation. The most commonly used type of Heat Transfer Equipment is a shell and tube heat exchanger, and other heat transfer equipment are an intercoolers and heaters; condensers and boilers in steam plant; evaporators; regenerators and refrigeration units; automobile radiators; oil coolers of heat engine, etc.
