OPERATING EXPERIENCE WITH A LARGE THERMALLY STRATIFIED CHILLED WATER STORAGE TANK.

Author(s) : TRUEMAN C. S.

Summary

A LARGE CHILLED WATER STORAGE TANK HAS BEEN IN FULL OPERATION FOR ABOUT 6 YEARS IN VANCOUVER. 2 ASPECTS OF THESE DATA WILL BE OF PARTICULAR INTEREST. FIRST, THE VERY HIGH PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL TANK VOLUME THAT IS AVAILABLE FOR EFFECTIVE COOLING IN ACTUAL OPERATION PROVES THE VALIDITY OF THE THERMAL STRATIFICATION CONCEPT. SECOND, THE POSITIVE IMPACT OF THE OVERALL OPERATION OF THE CHILLED WATER PLANT MADE POSSIBLE BY A SERIES OF ENERGYCONSERVATION MEASURES REINFORCES THE IMPORTANCE OF CONSIDERING THE INTERRELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN SYSTEMS IN BOTH DESIGN AND OPERATION.
