Heat Exchanger Versus Cooler
The main difference between heat exchanger and cooler is in the 
design. While a refrigeration system has a refrigeration unit that 
cools the circulating coolant, a heat exchanger does not have a 
refrigeration unit and achieves temperature control through direct 
heat exchange of the fluid.
What is Chiller?
A chiller is a device that removes 
heat from a process by passing 
cold water through it. Cold water 
used in chillers is produced by 
means of an absorption and 
cooling cycle or by compressing a 
liquid from a vaporized form.
How does the cooler work?
The structure of a vapor compression 
chiller usually consists of a compressor 
unit that creates a cooling effect by 
converting the vaporized refrigerant 
into a cooled liquid form. Vapor 
compression systems are usually 
installed with air coolers, water cooled 
chillers or evaporation condensers.
What is a heat exchanger?
Heat exchange cooling systems use 
devices that transfer heat through 
various fluids. A heat exchanger 
cooler may use a refrigerant 
consisting of an air or a liquid 
mixture to remove the heat 
generated by the associated heating 
process.
Condenser and Heat Exchanger: Are 
they the Same?
The condenser can be seen as a form 
of heat exchanger, as its function is 
similar to that of a refrigeration heat 
exchanger. While a heat exchanger 
can control the process temperature 
independently, a condenser is a 
component of a cooling system (water 
or air cooler) used to remove heat 
generated by an industrial or 
commercial process.
