Chilled water plant optimization based on part-load cooling tower performance.

Author(s) : SUMMERS C., HOWELL R.

Summary

Cooling towers are often used in air conditioning applications to reject heat into the atmosphere. For many people in the industry, the thermal performance of cooling towers is often taken for granted. With proper control of condenser water temperature from the cooling tower, an up to 27% increase in efficiency of a central chilled water plant can be realized.
