What are the differences between water cooling and air cooling in chillers?


The first thing to declare is a water-cooled chiller and an air-cooled chiller The principle of operation is the same, the same is the use of circulating water to cool the object, the water-cooled chiller applies slightly larger Point equipment, the greater because the water-cooled type must be equipped with an external water tower for cooling, if the required cooling capacity is not great, such as the cooling capacity of 10KW or less, it is recommended to use air-cooled chiller.
A lot of people heard the air-cooled chiller mistakenly thought that it was like blowing a fan to cool the required equipment. Actually not, the air-cooled type is the same as the water-cooled type, but also uses the water circulation to achieve the cooling effect, but It comes with a fan to eliminate the cooling tower. The advantage is that the installation is simpler and easier to maintain.

Air-cooled chillers adopt air cooling, eliminating the cooling towers, cooling water pumps and piping systems that are essential to the cooling water system, and avoiding fouling of condensers and water pipes due to poor water quality. It also saves water resources. It is currently the most economical and simple model of cold water air-conditioning equipment maintenance. 

Air-cooled chillers can be used on small systems. Most large units are water-cooled or industrial screw chillers. The initial investment in water-cooling is less for the host than it is for air-cooled ones. However, with cooling towers and computer rooms, electronic water treatment equipment, etc., to say that for many years of operation, the cooling efficiency of water-cooled units will be relatively reduced, and air-cooled will not.

The annual operating costs are lower than those of water-cooled chillers. The cost of engine room construction is the lowest among all types of air-conditioning cooling and heating systems. The maintenance cost is about half that of water-cooled or boilers, and the noise and volume of air-cooled chillers is cooler than water. The big one can only be installed outdoors. Most water-cooled units are installed in the basement. The common point of air cooling and water cooling is that the cooling effect is also stable.
