Purpose
The Chilled Water System provides chilled water throughout the plant to all air conditioning and air cooling units that are required during plant operation.

Components
• Chillers• Chilled Water Pumps• Chilled Water Expansion Tank• Air Separators
10
Chillers
• Three chiller units provided
• Each unit consists of a 1500-ton centrifugal compressor
• Any two units may operate in series with the third unit in standby.

Chilled Water Pumps
• Three horizontal centrifugal pumps are provided to move the chill water through the system (two normally running with one in standby).
• Each pump is rated at 150 hp at a design flow rate of 3027 gpm.

16
Chilled Water Expansion Tank
• Maintains NPSH to the chilled water pumps.
• Allows for chilled water expansion on temperature fluctuations.
17
18
Air Separator
• Air removal from the water– Reduces corrosion of the piping network– prevents cavitation of the chilled water pumps
• Air is removed from the chilled water flow stream by utilizing air separator "Tees.“
• Turbulence causes air to be removed from the flow stream.
• The tees direct air to the expansion tank.

Chilled Water Heat Transfer
• Chilled water circulates through the evaporator to transfer heat to the refrigerant.
• TPCW passes through the condenser to remove heat from the refrigerant.
• The heat, therefore, is transferred from the chilled water to the Refrigerant and from the Refrigerant to the TPCW.
