EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Chilled water systems are mainly used in large commercial HVAC air
conditioning systems and industrials cooling applications although there are some
residential and light commercial HVAC chilled water system in use. Chilled water
systems are popular because they use water as a refrigerant. Water is far less
expensive than refrigerant. This makes them cost-effective, especially in commercial
HVAC air conditioning applications.
The water is pumped to the cooling tower outside where the water releases
heat and is returned to the heat exchanger where the cold water absorbs heat from the
chilled water return. Coming out of the heat exchanger is a chilled water supply pipe
that is delivered to the load through the chilled water supply. For this, to work the
outside air temperature has to be cold enough to properly cool the water plus the
proper mechanical and control system needs to be set up to make this function
properly. If set up properly, this type of system can save a lot of energy and give the
chillers a rest.
In the case of a chilled water system where the chiller is located in low-
ambient outside temperatures, crankcase heaters are installed on the compressor to
reduce or eliminate liquid slugging of the compressor from migrating refrigerant from
the evaporator.

CHAPTER 1
GENERAL INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction
The seed of MUST gained roots through the Pre-Commonwealth Act No.
3377 known as the Vocational Act of 1927. It was named as the Misamis Oriental
Trade School (MOTS) which catered to the elementary level only but eventually in
1936, it opened a secondary four-year program.
Decree 1431 upgraded the institution to Don Mariano Marcos Memorial Polytechnic
State College. In 1991, it was renamed Mindanao Polytechnic State College (MPSC)
Last July 27, 2016, the Congress approved Republic Act No. 10919
amalgamating the Mindanao University of Science and Technology (MUST) located
in Cagayan de Oro City and the Misamis Oriental State College of Agriculture and
Technology (MOSCAT) located in Claveria, Misamis Oriental into the University of
Science and Technology of Southern Philippines (USTP).

CHAPTER 2
2.1 Introduction
Chilled water air conditioning systems are commonly used in applications that
need large cooling capacity such as hypermarket, industrial process, and commercial
air conditioning such as offices and factories. More and more homes are using this
system to air conditioned their entire house because of its cost-effectiveness and no
hazard of having refrigerant piped all over the house.
The condenser water absorbs heat from the refrigerant in the condenser barrel
of the water chiller, and is then sent via return lines to a cooling tower, which is a heat
exchange device used to transfer waste heat to the atmosphere. The extent to which
the cooling tower decreases the temperature depends upon the outside temperature,
the relative humidity and the atmospheric pressure. The water in the chilled water
circuit will be lowered to the Wet-bulb temperature or dry-bulb temperature before
proceeding to the water chiller, where it is cooled to between 4° and 7°C and pumped
to the air handler, where the cycle is repeated. The equipment required includes
chillers, cooling towers, pumps and electrical control equipment. The initial capital
outlay for these is substantial and maintenance costs can fluctuate. Adequate space
must be included in building design for the physical plant and access to equipment.
The chilled water, having absorbed heat from the air, is sent via return lines
back to the utility facility, where the process described in the previous section occurs.
Utility generated chilled water eliminates the need for chillers and cooling towers at
x
the property, reduces capital outlays and eliminates ongoing maintenance costs. The
physical space saved can also become rentable, increasing revenue.
Utility supplied chilled water has been used successfully since the 1960s in
many cities, and technological advances in the equipment, controls and trenchless
installation have increased efficiency and lowered costs.
The use of air as a means of cooling a space can sometimes be harmful to our
health. Chilled water systems are fundamentally safer due to the use of non-toxic,
chemically-stable water as the refrigerant. Chillers don't require that potentially-
hazardous refrigerants be circulated throughout a building in close proximity to
occupants. Noise pollution affects both health and behavior. Noise pollution can cause
hypertension, high stress levels, tinnitus, hearing loss, sleep disturbances, and other
harmful effects. Air cooling system requires refrigerant which is way expensive and a
leak in refrigerant line inside the building will probably require brazing, leak testing
with nitrogen and evacuation of the system. Also when the air stops flowing through
the cooling coil, there is possibility that liquid refrigerant will return to the
compressor and damage it.
This report will benefit the users of the Food Innovation Center. With the
design of a chilled water system on the Technology Building, the students and faculty
can concentrate more because of less noise created by chilled water system compared
to air cooled system. They also not worry about the hazardous refrigerant that may be
circulated throughout the building and because the condenser is water cooled, it’s
usually mounted on the same rack.
Repairs only require plumbing work and only water is lost if the chilled water
piping leaks somewhere in the building and is also a lot cheaper compare to
refrigerant.
xi
The student goals and constraints which serve as important factor of the report
are considered and are enumerated as follows:
Condenser – area of the system that pulls heat off the machine
Cooling Tower – cools water from the condenser by dissipating it into the air
Tower Bypass Valve – controls the condenser water flow either over the
cooling tower or recirculates it through the machine
AHU – or air handling unit, is a device to condition and circulate air as part of
HVAC system
Fan-coil unit – a small terminal unit that is often composed of only a blower
and a heating and/or cooling coil
Diffuser- A diffuser is placed over ductwork, and it separates air with vanes
going in differing directions. It evenly distributes air flow in the desired
directions.
Enthalpy- for a given sample of air, a measure of the total heat content (the
sum of the heat energy of the dry air and heat energy of the water vapor within
it). It is typically used to determine the amount of fresh outside air that can be
added to recirculated air for the lowest cooling cost.
xiii
Fresh air intake- an opening through which outside air is drawn into the
building. This may be to replace air in the building that has been exhausted by
the ventilation system, or to provide fresh air for combustion of fuel.
Abbreviated FAI.
Heating coil- A heating coil is the part of the system that conducts heat. It
allows electricity to act as fire.
Heat exchanger- A heat exchanger is the part of the system that transfers heat
from the hot parts of the machine or a system to the cold parts of the machine
or system.

From the cooling load calculations, the calculated peak load from the whole
system is 25.685 TOR or 26 TOR. Since the system’s peak load is below 200 tons, the
water chilled system for this building will be utilizing a single chiller. Constant flow
65
is simple and often applied to small systems up to 200 tons as long as the system
pressure drop is fairly low and a wider change of temperature is applied to reduce the
system.
The standard rating condition flow rates for electric chillers in ARI 550/590
are 2.4 gpm/ton.

Figure shown above is the flow of the air distribution. It is a repeating cycle
which means that it should have a return pipes that will return the supplied water to
the cooling water tower. The water is pumped with a use of a centrifugal pump from
the water cooled chiller and then pumped to the air handling units and the remaining
water is then flashed to the cooling tower and then goes back to the chiller for another
process of distribution.
Runs are based on the pipe layout of the building (Index run)
Leq=Lstraight + nLelbows+nLtee
The head loss of the pipe varies on the diameter of the pipe (commercialized
steel pipe) and the GPM supplied. The friction loss on both supply and return pipe
line is determined using pipe sizing chart of commercialized steel pipe ( ASHRAE
71
Fundamentals 2009).The lengths of the pipe line is obtain in the pipe layout of the
building.
Pipe fitting head loss are obtained using the Darcy-Weisbach Equation
wherein the friction factor multiplied by L/D is approximated by the K-factor, which
is size-dependent loss coefficient found in table 1, of ASHRAE 2009 handbook.

SECOND FLOOR:
Positioning:
1. Pipe work, electrical connections, control box and condensate pump access panels
should be readily accessible. Refer to cassette dimensions.
2. Position unit at least 5 ft. (1.5m) from wall or similar obstruction, and at least 8 ft
(2.4m) from the floor or grade.
99
3. Position unit so discharge air does not blow directly on remote wall wired
thermostat, if used.
5. Verify Condensate drain has sufficient fall — 1” per 10’ (8 mm/m) in any
horizontal run between cassette and drain.
7. Maintain minimum 1” (25.4mm) clearance above cassette depth and false ceiling
for proper installation.
Mounting Method:
1. Use template to cut ceiling opening and determine rod positions. See Figure
below.
2. Install hanger bolts using 3/8” (10mm) all-thread rod at centers. See Table
below.
5. Level at correct distance from ceiling with aid of installation guides. See
Figure below.
6. Secure unit in position with locknuts and washers on either side of cassette bracket.
7. Insure threaded rod does not protrude more than 2” (51mm) below mounting
bracket. See Figure.
8. If ceiling is not level or even, install cassette level to ensure correct pump operation
and to maintain fan clearances.
10. Maximum slope of 1/8” (3mm) over length of chassis toward condensate drain is
allowed. Slight discrepancy between cassette and ceiling will be taken up by fascia
foam seal.
Duct Connections:
Attach branch duct and fresh air duct collars to cassette chassis.
Install no more than 10 feet (3m) of branch duct or fresh air duct.
Duct through wall penetration is an installation way that the ducts are passed
through walls. Ducts should be insulated so that no leaks will occur. In ducting
through wall, sheet metal sleeves are present in order for the duct to be insulated well.
any temperature (below the Critical Point) is different from the composition of the
liquid phase.
6. Secure unit in position with locknuts and washers on either side of cassette bracket.
7. Insure threaded rod does not protrude more than 2” (51mm) below mounting
bracket.
8. If ceiling is not level or even, install cassette level to ensure correct pump operation
and to maintain fan clearances.
10. Maximum slope of 1/8” (3mm) over length of chassis toward condensate drain is
allowed. Slight discrepancy between cassette and ceiling will be taken up by fascia

Electrical wiring must be in accordance with all electrical codes. In absence of such
requirements to the National Electrical Code (NEC).
Connect Wiring

1. Loosen four screws on front of control box cover. Slide cover up and off to
access high-voltage wiring. Rating plate is located on outside of control box
cover.
2. Protect unit by time delay fuse or breaker. Check rating plate for circuit
ampacity and breaker or fuse size. Use only HACR type breakers. Select
proper wire for ampacity rating.
3. Connect local disconnect switch within 3 feet of unit.
Units rated 208/230V, primary side of transformer are factory wired for 230V.

CHAPTER 5
5.1 Evaluation
The optimal operation performance of the chilled water system and each
equipment under specific load condition are obtained by maximizing their exergy
efficiencies respectively. By designing the proper size of pumps, air handling units,
cooling tower and proper sizes of pipes is a great to avoid unnecessary materials and
improper equipment during installation which is very economical.
5.2 Conclusions
Our team has successfully presented the calculation of the cooling load as well
as presented the design of the Chilled Water System for our assigned building, the
Food Innovation Center. The recommended sizes of the equipment to be used in the
Chilled Water System are also done and have met all of our objectives.
