Reducing temperature. Improving performance! Bowman Charge Air Coolers For turbocharged marine and stationary land based engines Charge air coolers cool the compressed combustion air from the turbocharger. By reducing the temperature, the incoming air is much denser, enabling increased air mass to be supplied to the engine. The result is better combustion efficiency providing improved engine performance, plus reduced fuel consumption and emissions. Bowman offer a comprehensive range of charge air coolers, which are suitable for marine and land based stationary engines up to 570kW. Based on Bowman’s...

Titanium tube stacks Titanium is the ultimate ‘fit and forget’ material for aggressive water conditions. Bowman now offer titanium tube stacks on many of our charge air coolers. See page 7 for more details. Easy product selection At Bowman, we have developed a computer programme to select the correct charge air coolers for your application. Simply by supplying us with the following information we can advise the correct unit; 1: Charge air mass flow rate in kg/min 2: Charge air pressure in bar g 3: Max. acceptable charge air pressure drop (if known) in kPa 4: Charge air cooler inlet and outlet...

BOWMAN® Charge Air Coolers Typical performance The tables below show the performance characteristics that can be achieved from our Charge Air Coolers in either marine or land based operation. Marine Type Charge Air Flow (kg/min) Water Flow (l/min) Pressure Drop Heat Rejection Water Flow Pressure Drop Engine Power Land Type The above typical performance figures are based on an air inlet temperature of 180ºC at 1.75 bar g and cooling water at 30ºC. Maximum air inlet temperature is 250ºC. For higher temperatures please contact the sales department. Maximum air inlet pressure is 5.5 bar g. (EC120...

BOWMAN® Installation Bowman Charge Air Coolers must always be mounted so that the water outlet is uppermost (see diagrams below). They must not be operated without an adequate water flow and when used in conjunction with our header tank heat exchangers, they should be positioned in the circuit so that they always receive the full flow of the engine water pump. By simply unscrewing the end cover retaining screws, the tube stack can be removed from its outer ‘shell’ for routine cleaning and maintenance. On reassembly, it is always recommended that the ‘’O’’ rings are replaced to ensure a reliable,...

A world of applications Bowman charge air coolers have been tested and proven in some of the most extreme operating conditions around the world, from icy depths of a Northern Canadian winter, to the searing heat of an Australian summer, plus just about everything in between. Here are just a few examples: Marine Engineering In Portugal, Bowman FG100 charge air coolers have been used to convert two John Deere engines for marine use. The installation, on the Catamaran ‘Independencia’, helped reduce temperatures in the engine room from over 50ºC to just 25ºC. Power Generation In Canada, Bowman FG100...
