How to determine correct capacity of your refrigeration system?
You are faced with an important decision: what power should your refrigeration system deliver? 116, 125 or 170 kilowatts? In this blog, you will discover how to find the perfect balance between efficiency and cooling power.
Why is proper sizing so crucial?
A properly sized cooling plant offers numerous advantages: low energy consumption, low operating costs and a better CO2 balance. But beware: a cooling installation that is too large consumes unnecessary energy, while one that is too small, cannot deliver the required cooling capacity. To make the right choice, it is important to first understand how a refrigeration system works.
How does a chiller actually work?
The chiller extracts heat by passing refrigerant in the evaporator from liquid phase to gaseous phase. We call this process evaporation. The absorbed heat is released by the refrigerant to the outside air in the condenser, where the gas changes to the liquid phase.
The circulating water/liquid can be brought to any desired temperature, usually between -15 and +25 degrees Celsius. This makes the chiller ideal for both process cooling and ambient air temperature control.
Our range includes chillers with cooling capacities between 26.5 and 88.3 kW. Following detailed advice, we can meet your individual needs quickly and easily. Rental refrigeration from Coolworld can be used in a wide range of sectors and industries.
Are you thinking about the future when planning?
A refrigeration system is a long-term investment. Therefore, it is wise to consider future developments when planning. For example, consider whether you have plans to expand your refrigerated space. You can opt for a slightly more generously sized machine, invest in additional cooling technology later, or rely on temporary cooling when needed.
Also, don't forget to include global temperature trends in your considerations. The trend points to rising average temperatures, which means the need for additional cooling in summer is likely to increase in the coming years.
What if you need extra cooling temporarily?
Whether your cooling system turns out to be too small, more cooling power is suddenly needed, or your system fails: rental cooling offers a quick and reliable solution. Coolworld Rentals offers various temporary cooling systems for storage, process cooling and climate solution.
Application areas are:
- Coolants in the production process
- Connection to a permanent cooling or air-conditioning system
- Cooling of chemicals in storage tanks
- Additional process cooling or cooling of cooling water of a cooling tower
- Cooling of machinery process water
- Ice rinks for winter festival events or professional events
Customised cooling
Choosing the right refrigeration system is a matter of customisation. By carefully identifying your current and future needs, you can select a system that performs optimally and is energy-efficient. And should you still need extra cooling unexpectedly, rental cooling offers a flexible solution.
