Process Chiller

A process chiller is a cooling system that removes heat created during an industrial process. Process chillers cool a liquid that circulates the area that needs to be cooled, maintaining the set temperature.A process chiller is a thermal device that removes heat generated by a given process. This cooling equipment repeatedly conducts chilled water through a closed-loop to allow a drop in rising process temperatures.Chillers operate on the principle of compression or absorption of a vapor. They are designed to provide a continuous flow of coolant to maintain a preset temperature. As the diagram shows, they are a continually circulating system of fluid that lowers the temperature by removing heat.Chiller efficiency is a calculated ratio of the energy consumed over the amount of heat absorbed from the process fluid. Two commonly used efficiency ratios are: Coefficient of performance. Energy-efficiency ratio.
