Performance Curves
Selection Procedure
step 1
determine Heat load. Typical Rule of Thumb, -size cooler for 1/3
of the input horsepower. Heat load may be expressed as either
Horsepower or BTU/Hr
or KW/°C
.
HP=BTU/HR ÷ 2545
BTU/HR=HP x 2545
step 2
determine entering temperature difference.
(Actual E.T.D.)
E.T.D. = Entering oil – Entering Ambient
temperature air temperature
The entering oil temperature is generally the maximum desired
system oil temperature.
Entering air temperature is the highest Ambient Air temperature
the application will see.
step 3
determine the Corrected Heat dissipation to use the Curves

step 4
select model From Curves Enter the Performance Curves at the
bottom with the GPM oil flow and proceed upward to the adjusted
Heat Rejection from Step 3. Any Model or Curve on or above this
point will meet these conditions.
step 5
Calculate oil pressure drop Find the oil pressure drop
correction factor and multiply it by the Oil Pressure Drop found on
performance curve.
Listed Performance Curves are based on:
• 50 SSU (11 cSt) oil
• 100° F (55.56° C) Entering Temperature Difference (E.T.D.)
If your application conditions are different, then continue with the
selection procedure.
