Provided is a cooling device with which it is possible to cool a fluid to be cooled, even before maintenance work, if a fault such as a blockage or a breakage occurs in a part of a channel. The cooling device (1) is provided with four heat exchangers (1A-1D) and a plurality of heat exchanger connection parts (111-120), each of the heat exchanger connection parts allowing natural gas to flow therethrough. Each of the heat exchangers has: a drum (101, 102, 103, fourth drum 104), a refrigerant reservoir (T), a plurality of heat exchanger core parts (121, 122, 123, 124) immersed in liquid propane in the refrigerant reservoir (T), and a demister (106). A plurality of cooling channels allowing natural gas to flow therethrough are installed, independent of each other, from the first heat exchanger (1A) to the fourth heat exchanger (1D).

A cooling system is disclosed. The cooling system may comprise a first cooling unit installed at a cooling target, the first cooling unit including a first cooling pipe forming a flow path of a first refrigerant; and a second cooling unit installed at the cooling target, the second cooling unit including a second cooling pipe forming a flow path of a second refrigerant, wherein the first cooling pipe includes a first cooling pipe first end adjacent to a first side of the cooling target, the first refrigerant being introduced into the first cooling pipe first end; and a first cooling pipe second end adjacent to a second side of the cooling target, the first refrigerant being discharged from the first cooling pipe second end, wherein the second cooling pipe includes a second cooling pipe first end adjacent to the first side of the cooling target, the second refrigerant being discharged from the second cooling pipe first end; and a second cooling pipe second end adjacent to the second side of the cooling target, the second refrigerant being introduced into the second cooling pipe second end.

A heat exchanger comprises an inlet, an outlet, a heat exchanging channel, and an opening. The heat exchanging channel surrounds a cavity. The opening provides access to the cavity. The inlet is coupled to one end of the heat exchanging channel and the outlet is coupled to another end of the heat exchanging channel. The heat exchanging channel is isolated from the cavity. No access or passage is present between the heat exchanging channel and the cavity. During operation, heat exchanging fluid flows through the heat exchanging channel thereby cooling fluid within the cavity. The heat exchanging fluid never contacts the fluid within the cavity. In various embodiments, the heat exchanging channel has a single or stacked layer when viewed along a cross section. The heat exchanging channel has a spherical, cylindrical, or rectangular shape. In one embodiment, an insulative layer is disposed between layers of the heat exchanging channel.
