Chilled Water Storage System Design

Successful chw tes design strategies basis of design chilled water is normally stored at 39 f to 42 f in the storage tanks since this temperature range is directly compatible with conventional chillers.

Chilled water storage system design.

The return temperature is between 58 f to 60 f. Volume gallons 5 875d 2h. Temperature and make cooling tower. Chw systems also may be used for removing process or other heating loads.
