How Enclosure Coolers Create Cold Air The heat in the slower moving air is transferred to the faster moving incoming air. Vortec Enclosure Coolers are powered by a vortex tube - a unique device that creates a vortex from compressed air and separates it into hot and cold air streams. Here’s how it works: The vortex tube’s cylindrical generator causes the input compressed air to rotate at speeds up to 1,000,000 rpm, as it is forced down the inner walls of the hot (longer) end of the vortex tube. Vortec Enclosure Coolers Vortex Enclosure Coolers maintain a slight pressure in the cabinet to...

At the end of the hot tube, a small portion of this air exits through a needle valve as hot air exhaust The heat in the slower moving air is transferred to the faster moving incoming...
