What would be the chilled water temperature difference (Delta T) in Air-Cooled & Water-Cooled Chillers?

Answer 1

The temperature difference of chilled water supply and return  (can be 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, and 20).

                                               

The chilled water flow in chillers varies at different temperature differences ( T):

 

 

                          Delta T          gpm/ton

                                                   10                    2.4

                                                   12                    2

                                                   14                    1.7

                                                   16                    1.5

                                                   18                    1.33

                                                   20                    1.2

Higher T makes the pipe sizes smaller.
