Air cooled water chiller.
Air cooled chiller circuit diagram.
The compressor has two functions in the refrigerant cycle.
The refrigeration circuit is made up of four.
It can be either air cooled a coil or coils and a fan or fans or water cooled another shell tube heat exchanger cooled by cooling tower or other water.

Air cooled chillers will use fans to blow cool ambient air over their condenser to remove heat from the system this type does not use a cooling tower.
Air cooled chiller schematic.
I ll show you some examples of how chillers are illustrated in schematics as it really varies.
The two in the top right and the one in the bottom right are all air cooled chillers and the rest are water cooled.
Open or close the descriptions below with the icons.
For the remainder of this article we will focus on water cooled chillers and cooling towers.
First it removes the refrigerant vapor from the evaporator and reduces the pressure in the evaporator to a point where the desired evaporating temperature can be maintained.
Industrial water or glycol chiller systems contain two main circuits.
A type of condenser where refrigerant flows through the tubes and rejects heat into a flow of ambient air most chiller units are fitted with air cooled condensers.
We ll first start with the chiller.
