Type of monograph: Book

Summary

This book explores the major improvements in recent years to many chiller and cooling tower components that have resulted in improved performance and lower operating costs. This new edition looks at how climate change and "green" designs have significantly impacted the selection of refrigerants and the application of chilled water systems. It also discusses the expanded use of digital controls and variable frequency drives as well as the re-introduction of some older technologies, especially ammonia-based absorption cooling.
Extract from the table of contents: fundamentals (basic information about systems and equipment, including how they and their various components work); design and application (equipment sizing, selection, and application; details of piping, control, and water treatment; and special considerations such as noise control, electrical service, fire protection, and energy efficiency); operations and Maintenance (commissioning and programmed maintenance of components and systems, with guidelines and recommended specifications for procurement).
