  2. Chiller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiller

    A liquid (glycol based) chiller with an air cooled condenser on the rooftop of a medium size commercial building. In air conditioning systems, chilled coolant, usually chilled water mixed with ethylene glycol, from a chiller in an air conditioning or cooling plant is typically distributed to heat exchangers, or coils, in air handlers or other types of terminal devices which cool the air in ...

  3. Chilled water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chilled_water

    The water in the chilled water circuit will be lowered to the Wet-bulb temperature or dry-bulb temperature before proceeding to the water chiller, where it is cooled to between 3 and 6 °C and pumped to the air handler, where the cycle is repeated. [3] The equipment required includes chillers, cooling towers, pumps and electrical control ...

  4. Free cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_cooling

    For a human-powered version, see yakhchal.. When the ambient air temperature drops to a set temperature, a modulating valve allows all or part of the chilled water to by-pass an existing chiller and run through the free cooling system, which uses less power and uses the lower ambient air temperature to cool the water in the system.

  5. District cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/District_cooling

    Chillers in a district cooling at University of Rochester in Rochester, New York. District cooling is the cooling equivalent of district heating.Working on principles broadly similar to district heating, district cooling delivers chilled water to buildings like offices and factories.

  6. Chiller boiler system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiller_boiler_system

    A chiller boiler system is a hydronic system. It uses water instead of air to heat and cool a structure. A properly designed hydronic system is usually more efficient than a standard forced air system. [1] Chiller boiler systems use radiant heating and cooling or fan coil systems to condition a home or business. This allows for multiple zones ...

  7. Glycol chiller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycol_chiller

    Glycol chillers are a specific kind of refrigeration system, often used to cool a variety of liquids, including alcohol and other beverages. Using a chiller allows producers to lower the temperature of the product dramatically over a short period of time, depending on the production needs.

  8. Water chiller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_chiller

    A water chiller [1] is a device used to lower the temperature of water. Most chillers use refrigerant in a closed loop system to facilitate heat exchange from water where the refrigerant is then pumped to a location where the waste heat is transferred to the atmosphere. However, there are other methods in performing this action.

  9. Cooling tower - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooling_tower

    This equivalent ton is defined as the heat rejection in cooling 3 US gallons per minute (11 litres per minute) or 1,500 pounds per hour (680 kg/h) of water by 10 °F (5.6 °C), which amounts to 15,000 British thermal units per hour (4.4 kW), assuming a chiller coefficient of performance (COP) of 4.0.
