How to choose the chiller size you need.

time2009/11/19

If you ask for?the industrial chiller, cooling capacity is usually the prime concern to choose the prefered size.Here we would like to share some formulas with you about this.

No matter what your application,there are also some single formulas for determining the size of chiller you need.Before you begin,you must know three factors below:

  • the inlet chilled water temperature ( the incoming water temperature )
  • the outlet chilled water temperature ( the chilled water temperature you require )
  • the chilled flow rate

General formulas:

1. Norminal cooling capacity ( KW )?= chilled water flow rate (?L/S )?* 4.187 * temperature difference ( ℃ )* safety coeffcient ( 1.3 for air cooled and 1.1 for water cooled )

2.Norminal cooling capacity ( Btu / hr ) = flow rate ( GPH )?* 8.33 * temperature difference ( ℉) * 1.2

3.Norminal cooling capacity ( Kcal / h ) = water tank volume ( L ) * temperature difference ( ℃ )

Of course , you can contact us for more details and we will be glad to assist with you.
