ABSTRACT Water and steam are typically used as heat carriers in heating systems. But at high temperatures, water and steam requires a corresponding high operating pressure. In industrial heating systems, a high temperature level is often a great advantage and establishing this with water and steam can be very controversial and expensive. In thermal oil heaters a special oil are used instead as the heat carrier, operating at atmospheric pressure up to 300°C. Comparing to water and steam, it would require a pressure of 85 bar to obtain this temperature. There are several advantages by using thermal oil compare to e.g. steam systems. Thermal oil heaters are a real good and innovative solution for heat production in those industrial processes where high process temperatures are required. There are circumstances in which the use of a thermal fluid heater rather than a steam boiler is more suitable for heat production, usually to lower costs.
