Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to methods and systems for use in subterranean operations. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to methods and systems of cooling equipment used in subterranean operations.
- Pumping equipment is used in many operations associated with drilling and developing a hydrocarbon-producing wellbore within a formation.
- pumping equipment typically generates a large amount of heat, which must be removed and dissipated with a cooling system.
- Current cooling systems used with pumping equipment during an operation typically move air through the cooling system using large fans. These fans tend to consume a relatively high amount of energy. For example, some cooling systems can burn on the order of five-thousand gallons of fuel per year, per pump.
- the fan systems used in a typical cooling system can create a large amount of noise pollution.

- an example cooling system 100 comprising a cooling tower 110 , an array of fans 112 , an exhaust pipe 115 , and a radiator 120 .
- the array of fans 112 may be vertically oriented within the cooling tower 110 and move air from a suction chamber 125 toward a cooling tower output end 130 . As a result, the array of fans 112 may pull air away from the radiator 120 .
- the exhaust pipe 115 may connect to a pumping system and provide a conduit for exhaust gases generated and emitted by the pumping system. In certain embodiments, the exhaust pipe 115 may extend into the cooling tower 110 and direct exhaust gases through the cooling tower 110 , as will be described below in further detail.
- the array of fans 112 may pull air from the suction chamber 125 , which, in turn, pulls air from the radiator 120 to cool the radiator 120 .
- the radiator 120 may contain coolant received from a pumping system. Once circulated through the radiator 120 the coolant may be directed back to the pumping system.
- the cooling tower 110 may be oriented vertically such that air is directed through the cooling tower 110 and expelled upwards. As such, the lighter hot air may help increase the air flow through the cooling tower 110 without requiring additional power consumption by the array of fans 112 .
- the radiator 120 a may receive pump oil 152 from the pumping system to be cooled by the cooling system 100 .
- the radiator 120 b may receive engine coolant 154 from the cooling system.
- more than one radiator 120 a , 120 b may be used to circulate fluids through the cooling system 100 , for example, when it is desirable to cool more than one type of fluid simultaneously.
- engine exhaust 156 generated by the pumping system may be routed by an exhaust pipe 415 through the suction chamber 125 and expelled through the array of fans 112 .
- the array of fans 112 may be comprised of a plurality of bladeless fans 200 .

- the outer chamber air pressure may be increased relative to the inner flow path air pressure to increased the air flow rate through the bladeless fan 200 .
- the pressure partition 220 may comprise at least one air flow slot 225 .
- the at least one air flow slot 225 may extend axially substantially along the entire perimeter of the pressure partition 220 . In certain embodiments, the at least one air flow slot 225 may be located towards the intake end 204 of the pressure partition 220 . In certain embodiments, the at least one air flow slot 225 may have a substantially consistent width of between about 0.02 inches to about 0.1 inches.

- the air flow slot 225 may be angled toward the output end 202 to direct air flowing from the outer chamber 210 toward the output end 202 . In certain embodiments, the air flow slot 225 may be defined by overlapping portions 222 , 223 of the pressure partition 220 .
- a pressure difference between the outer chamber 210 and the inner flow path 215 may result in a high velocity air flow through the air flow slot 225 and into the inner flow path 215 .
- pressurized air flows through the air flow slot 225 into the inner flow path 215 (shown by arrow 230 )
- air within the inner flow path 215 may be dragged with this pressurized air toward the output end 202 (shown by arrow 232 ) through air-to-air frictional forces. Bernoulli forces may also cause air within the inner flow path 215 to move into the high velocity air flowing from the outer chamber 210 through the air flow slot 225 .

- the bladeless fan is shown by example with a hexagon shape, the bladeless fan 200 is not intended to be limited to any specific shape. For example, may form a square, pentagon, heart shape, or any other geometric shape so desired.
- each bladeless fan 200 may engage the outer wall 206 of at least one adjacent bladeless fan 200 .
- adjacent bladeless fans 200 may share an outer wall 206 .
- adjacent bladeless fans 200 may share an outer chamber 210 , as shown by example in FIG. 7 .
- the plurality of bladeless fans 200 may be configured in series with each other, in parallel with each other, or in a combination of both parallel and series configurations. Further addition of bladeless fans 200 , in series or in parallel, may provide increased air flow rate through the cooling tower. For example, the addition of one or more bladeless fans 200 in series may increase the air flow velocity through the cooling tower 110 , while the addition of one or more bladeless fans 200 in parallel may provide increased air flow area through the cooling tower 110 .
- each bladeless fan 200 may be connected to and associated with an individual air compressor to supply compressed air to the outer chamber through the air compressor connector.
- the power of each bladeless fan may be controlled by adjusting the power of the compressor associated with that bladeless fan (or turning the compressor off completely).
- the volumetric air flow rate through the array of fans 112 may be fine tuned in response to the requirements of the cooling system. For example, while the equipment to be cooled is powering down, in an idle state, or operating at reduced capacity, the volumetric air flow rate through the array of fans 112 may be reduced by powering off selective air compressors. Likewise, if the equipment to be cooled is running at an increased capacity or generating a higher level of heat, selective air compressors may be adjusted to increase air pressure within the associated bladeless fan's outer chamber.
- the air compressor 226 may be connected to the outer chamber of more than one bladeless fan.

- each bladeless fan 200 may be oriented vertically within the cooling tower 110 , such that the intake end 204 of each bladeless fan 200 draws air from the suction chamber of the cooling tower 110 .
- the flow of air through the bladeless fan may be further aided by rising heat (which is less dense and more buoyant than cooler air), which may reduce the energy required to move a given volume of air upward through the cooling tower 110 .
- the cooling system may further comprise an exhaust pipe 410 axially located in the inner flow path 215 of a bladeless fan 200 .
- the exhaust pipe 410 may comprise an exhaust pipe wall 415 and an exhaust pipe outlet 420 .
- the exhaust pipe wall 415 may create an exhaust flow path 435 that may provide a conduit for exhaust gases expelled by the pumping equipment.
- the exhaust pipe outlet 420 may direct exhaust gases toward the cooling tower output end 202 .
- the exhaust pipe 410 may extend through substantially the center of the bladeless fan 200 .
- the exhaust pipe 410 may comprise a muffler.
- the exhaust pipe wall 415 may be heated by hot gases flowing through the exhaust pipe 410 . A portion of this heat may be transferred from the exhaust pipe wall 415 to the surrounding air located within the inner flow path 215 , contributing to the heat efficiency caused by the increased buoyancy of air within the inner flow path 215 .

- the heat exchange fins 425 may comprise a heat conductive substance, such as copper or other substance suitable to pull heat from the exhaust pipe wall 415 as would be recognized by one of ordinary skill in the art with the benefit of this disclosure.
- the heat exchange fins 425 may aid the transfer heat from the exhaust pipe wall 415 to the air in the inner flow path 215 by conducting heat from hot gases within the exhaust pipe 410 toward the air within the inner flow path 215 .
- the heat exchange fins 425 may extend outward from the exhaust pipe wall 415 , increasing the surface area in contact with air within the inner flow path 215 .
