I've had a bit of trouble trying to find an answer to this question. I'm hoping maybe ya'll can help.
I'm wonding if any company makes an oil cooler that is Freon/R12/R134/etc to oil cooler instead of an air to oil cooler. I have a car that will have AC and needs an oil cooler. It seemed smart to run a small portion of the AC refrigerant to cool the oil (no air required). But I can't find any reference of anyone having done this before or anyone selling units. |

Okay, how about using a small secondary evaporator coil (downstream of the pass. comp. evap coil) to cool the air blowing across a standard air-to-air oil cooler. No huge load on the compressor, and would only pre-cool the air (all important Delta T) when the outside temps are high enough to justify running the A/C.

The ducting wouldn't have to be all that elaborate, and a blower wouldn't really even be need if the inlet was in the air stream. |
