Performance
The performance examples, on the following pages provide performance
information at various capacities for the most common water temperatures. The
stated cooling capacity is based on a water-temperature difference between the
evaporator inlet and outlet of 5°C and a difference of 5°C between the inlet and
the outlet of the condenser. The capacity ratings are applicable to a temperature
drop within 4 to 8°C except as limited by the minimum or maximum water-flow
rates as indicated by the heat exchanger’s hydraulic resistance table. All
capacities are based on a fouling factors of 0.044 m²K/kW for both evaporator
and condenser-watersides. If a different fouling factor is used, the unit capacity
will vary. For conditions that are not directly tabulated, direct interpolation may
be used. Extrapolation is not permitted.
For determining, the cooling capacity and the power input the following
information is needed:
• the required cooling capacity
• the inlet and outlet evaporator-water temperature
• the inlet and outlet condenser-water temperature
The evaporator-water flow can be determined by using the formula:
Evaporator water flow (liter/second) =
Cooling capacity x 0.239
Evaporator inlet (°C) - Evaporator outlet (°C)
The condenser-water flow can be determined by using the formula:
Condenser-water flow (liter/second) =
(Cooling capacity + Power input) x 0.239
Condenser outlet (°C) - Condenser inlet (°C)
The water pressure-drop tables are available on page 13.
Selection example:
Cooling capacity required: 560 kW
Evaporator temperature: 12/7°C
Condenser temperature: 30/35°C
Fouling factor: 0.044 m²K /kW
By using the selection table it can be determined that the RTWB 220 gives a
cooling capacity of 567 kW and a power input of 151 kW.
Determination of the evaporator flow rate:
27.1 liter/second = 567 x 0.239
12 - 7
Determination of the condenser flow rate:
34.3 liter/second = (567 + 151) x 0.239
35 - 30
After the evaporator and condenser flow rates have been determined, the
hydraulic pressure drop can be determined by using the water pressure-drop
table.

Selection Procedure - RTUB
Performance
The performance examples, on the following pages, provide performance
information at various capacities for the most common evaporator water and
saturated condensing temperatures. The stated cooling capacity is based on a
water temperature difference between the evaporator inlet temperature and
outlet of 5°C and a temperature difference of 9.6°C between the saturated
condensing and liquid temperatures (sub-cooling). The capacity ratings are
applicable to a temperature drop within 4 to 8°C except as limited by the
minimum or maximum water flow rate indicated in the heat exchanger
hydraulic resistance table. All capacities are based on a fouling factor of
0.0176 m² K/kW for evaporator water side. If a different sub-cooling or fouling
factor is used, the unit capacity will vary. For conditions that are not directly
tabulated, direct interpolation may be used. Extrapolation is not permitted.
To determine the cooling capacity and the power input, the following
information is needed :
• the required cooling capacity
• the inlet and outlet evaporator temperature
• the saturated condensing temperature
Selection example:
Cooling capacity required: 523 kW
Evaporator temperature: 12/7 °C
Condensing temperature: 45 °C
Fouling factor: 0.0176 m² K/kW
By using the selection table it can be determined that the RTUB 220 gives a
cooling capacity of 530 kW and a power input of 175 kW (with a sub-cooling of
9.6°C).
25.3 liter/second =
530 x 0.239
(12 - 7)
The water pressure drop can be determined by using the water pressure drop
table.

function. The chiller will run normally when the contact is closed and stop
the chiller when the contact is open. Re-closure of the contact will permit the
chiller to automatically return to normal operation. To be in series with water

108 Normally-open contacts for remote shutdown or refrigerant circuit
operation. The refrigerant circuit will go through a normal shutdown when
the contacts are closed and will automatically resume normal start and run
modes when contacts are open.
