Chiller Design, Selection, O&M

Chiller Design, Selection, O&M is a practical course focused on the fundamentals and applications of industrial and commercial chiller systems. It provides an understanding of chiller types, operating principles, major components, and refrigeration cycles. Participants learn how to determine cooling requirements and select suitable chillers for different applications. The course covers key design considerations such as capacity, efficiency, operating conditions, and system configuration. It explains the selection of air-cooled and water-cooled chillers based on project requirements. Participants also gain knowledge of pumps, cooling towers, heat exchangers, compressors, and associated control systems. The course introduces important performance parameters such as COP, EER, IPLV, and energy consumption. It also focuses on commissioning, routine operation, preventive maintenance, and troubleshooting techniques. Practical approaches to identifying common chiller faults and improving system reliability are discussed. By the end of the course, participants will be better equipped to design, select, operate, and maintain efficient chiller systems.
