How to determine the total amount of circulating water used in a process system?
Thread Content
I need some advice! As the title suggests, how can I determine the total amount of water that needs to be used in the circulation system of the cooling tower? There are roughly 7-8 systems that require circulating water, but the heat exchange volume for each of these systems is not large. If I calculate based on the heat exchange amount, it seems like too little water is needed. How should I handle this? Also, how much cooling circulating water is required per 3kW pump, on an hourly basis.
A 3Kw pump can pump out over a dozen cubic meters of water. Calculate the total heat transfer amount, select one circulation rate, and choose the chilled water tower based on this. The chiller tower manufacturers will install the fans and water pumps, and automatic water replenishment is achieved by connecting a water supply pipe; the small tray at the bottom of the chiller tower is sufficient for this purpose, with any excess water flowing out automatically
