Use: Central chilled-water cooling for large buildings (commercial offices, hospitals, malls).
How it’s used:
- A chiller cools water (typically to ~6–7 °C) by evaporating refrigerant in its evaporator, absorbing heat from the water loop.
- The chilled water is pumped to air-handling units or fan-coil units throughout the building, where it absorbs heat from indoor air and provides cooling and dehumidification.
- The warmed water returns to the chiller to be re-cooled; the chiller’s condenser rejects heat to the outside (air- or water-cooled).
Benefits:
- Efficient centralized cooling for many zones
- Precise temperature and humidity control
- Easier maintenance and load management than many distributed units
Typical considerations:
- Choose air-cooled vs water-cooled by site, efficiency, and water availability
- Refrigerant type and regulations, regular maintenance, and proper system balancing.
