Phased distribution system decoupling and refrigerant management for a multi-plant district cooling system.
Author(s) : GULDENZOPH D. E.
Summary
Important benefits, such as enhanced pressure control and pump energy savings, may be derived from utilizing a variable-volume, hydraulically decoupled pumping system rather than a direct-pumping system for chilled-water distribution. However, converting large, direct-pumped distribution systems to decoupled systems is not always practical due to excessive capital cost requirements and the design of the existing equipment. The paper presents one approach to dealing with these factors, where it was not only beneficial but essential to decouple certain additional cooling loads that were atypical of existing loads served by a large district cooling system.
