Summary

THE AUTHOR STRESSES THE IMPORTANCE OF SELECTING THE RIGHT PLANT ITEMS. THE DIFFERENCES IN POWER REQUIREMENTS OF SINGLE VERSUS TWO STAGE COMPRESSION AND PART LOAD BETWEEN RECIPROCATING AND SCREW COMPRESSORS ARE SHOWN. ALSO THE INCREASE IN POWER WITH INCREASE IN CONDENSING TEMPERATURE MUST BE BALANCED AGAINST COST DIFFERENCES OF AIR-COOLED AND EVAPORATIVE CONDENSERS. SYSTEM DESIGN IS STRESSED WITH EXAMPLES OF COSTLY DEFROSTING METHODS AND THE BETTER USE AT PART LOAD OF THE HEAT TRANSFER SURFACES OF CENTRAL PLANT AGAINST OUT-CYCLING OF MULTIPLE UNITS. D.W.H.
