How does a chiller work.
Chiller plant chilled water system diagram.
Process fluids typically water or a water glycol mix are used to cool machinery equipment food etc.
This means not only the delivered capacity of the chillers is reduced but also.
Chilled water schematic and condenser water schematic how to read and understand the engineering drawings with real world examples illustrations animations and video tutorial.
The evaporator of the chiller is where the chilled water is generated.
A chilled water system is a cooling system in which chilled water is circulated throughout.
To put it simply industrial chillers cool process fluids.
Chilled water system basics.
Chilled water plant system diagram exercise this is an updated version of an exercise i originally published on the blog back in september of 2013.
To remove heat from water.
It enters the air handling unit cools the air in cooling coil absorbs the heat and returns back to the plant room to get.
Chilled water systems provide cooling to a building by using chilled water to absorb heat from the building s spaces.
How a chiller works.
Covering chillers pump sets ahus risers primary and secondary systems cooling towers and bypass lines.
This cool fluid removes heat from the process and the warm fluid returns to the chiller.
The water chilled in the chiller is pumped to various parts of the building that are to be air conditioned.
System flow below chiller min flow 250 gpm variable primary flow at 25 system load two way valves control capacity by varying flow of water in coils per chiller system load 50 tons 176kw 50tons 176 kw primary bypass flow 250 gpm 95 l s 150 gpm 9 5 l s delta t 12 of 6 7 oc 100 gpm 44 ºf 6 3 l s 6 7 ºc 56 ºf 13 3 ºc 150.
However the purpose of a chiller remains the same.
The process fluid absorbs heat from what is being cooled and then goes through the chiller where the heat is removed from the fluid and transferred to the.
The chilled water flows up the height of the building to each floor in pipes known as risers.
If the water flows along tube side and the refrigerant along the shell side it is called as the flooded chiller.
The plant operators turn on extra chillers and associated pumps to provide the needed capacity.
At the heart of the water chilled system a chiller removes heat from water by means of a refrigeration cycle.
I posted it to provide an on line version of an exercise i had done in class which was the first time i had tried using a sketchup model as a teaching aid.
