The fermenter tank is one of the important equipment in the beer brewing process. 

The beer fermentation process is the normal microbial activity of yeast using fermentable substances in wort under certain conditions. 

Yeast will generate heat during the fermentation process.

In order to make the fermentation and post-ripening proceed at the setting temperature, it need be cooled.

and generally Tek Machinery Beer Fermenter use dimple type as cooling jacteks

and what is dimple Cooling jacket principle?

The dimple cooling jacket is a new type of high-efficiency jacket design. It is made of two thin stainless steel plates that are perforated and firmly welded to a thicker plate surface to form a honeycomb shape.

This structure is not only light, soundproof and elastic, but also widely used in food processing, winemaking and other industries with its excellent mechanical properties and heat transfer performance. Compared with general jackets, the Dimple jacket equipment greatly reduces the jacket wall thickness and inner barrel wall thickness, thereby reducing manufacturing costs. 

From the perspective of heat transfer, the dimple jacket has a small gap, and the fluid flow rate in the cavity is significantly increased. The honeycomb structure plays a role in interfering with the flow direction in the jacket, so that the fluid constantly changes the flow direction and speed when flowing through the honeycomb point, forming a turbulent vortex, accelerating heat (cold) exchange, and greatly increasing the heat transfer effect. The Dimple Cooling jacket tank is actually a pressure vessel that can perform heat and cold exchange. It is heated or cooled through the interlayer according to the needs of the reactants in the container. 

A Dimple type jacket is used around the fermentation inner tank to reduce the temperature of the fermentation tank. The honeycomb jacket structure is used to reduce the jacket wall thickness and the inner tube wall thickness to achieve a better cooling effect.
