Common industrial cooling methods and features for water well drilling rig

Cooling methods for the water well drilling rig depend on type, environment and needs. Options include air, water, oil and hybrid cooling.

 

  1. Air cooling: Uses fans; simple, low-maintenance, no water needed. Fits small rigs or dry areas. Portable rig engines rely on it—fails in 35℃ heat after 2 hours.
  2. Water cooling: Uses water/antifreeze; 3-5x more efficient than air. Suits large rigs. Truck-mounted rigs stay stable at 40℃, but need regular refills.
  3. Oil cooling: For hydraulics; uses radiators for heat exchange. Compact, precise. A deep-well rig’s system starts fans at 45℃, saving energy.

 

Hybrid systems (e.g., water + air) work for high-heat rigs. One 300m rig stayed cool for 8 hours, saving 15% energy. Choose based on environment and cost.waterput boor tuig
