What are Chilled Water in HVAC?

Chilled water is a critical component in modern cooling systems, often used to cool buildings and industrial processes. This substance, typically cooled to temperatures ranging between 4-7 degrees Celsius, is circulated through a building's closed-loop pipes and used to absorb heat from the environment. The absorbed heat is then dissipated via cooling towers or other heat rejection methods. Chilled water systems are prevalent in large-scale applications due to their energy efficiency and cost-effectiveness. These systems can be centralised or decentralised, with the former offering greater control over temperature regulation and the latter providing more flexibility for specific cooling needs within smaller areas of a building or facility. The quality of chilled water is crucial for system performance, necessitating regular monitoring for impurities that may affect the efficiency of heat transfer or cause damage to system components.
