The capital cost of the network is the summation of installed costs for all individual heat transfer equipment, including heat exchangers, furnaces, steam heaters, water coolers, and air cooler and refrigeration, and other related costs, including foundation, piping, instrumentation, control, and so on. Thus, it is a total investment ( ) required to build the entire heat transfer system. 

The thermocycle system can be operated only when condensing water is available at a temperature lower than the required chilled-water-supply temperature. Modifications for a centrifugal refrigeration unit include the installation of a small liqmd-refrigerant pump, cooler spray header nozzles, and a vapor bypass line between the cooler and the condenser. Without the compressor operating, a thermocycle capacity up to 35 percent of the refrigeration-unit rating can be produced. 

Combination of evaporative and refrigerated inlet systems—The use of evaporative coolers to assist the chiller system to attain lower temperatures of the inlet air. 

In general, the higher of the temperature differences between the outlet temperature of one stream and the inlet temperature of the other should be 20 deg K and the lower temperature difference should be 5-7 deg K for water coolers and 3-5 deg K when using refrigerated brines, although optimum values can only be determined by an economic analysis of alternative designs. 

Table 10.7 shows that the temperature must be decreased to low values to obtain a reasonable yield from the crystallization process. It should also be noted that cooling to 40°C should be possible against cooling water, and perhaps even down to 30°C. Any cooler than this, and refrigeration of some kind is required. This increases the cost of the cooling significantly. 

The total emissions from the system are not increased by the large quantities of cold gas, since a closed refrigerating cycle is maintained by vray of an externally ananged gas cooler and condenser (Fig. 2.37). The hot exhaust gas is made to pass through the cooler and is partly returned in the form of cold gas for pre-admission cooling into the pump. The pump... 

After carbonation at ambient temperature the carbonated water passes through a cooling coil in a cooler and on to the dispense head, where the dispensing valves are housed. The cooler is a tank of water with refrigerated walls on which a layer of ice (the ice bank ) accumulates. This ice allows a reserve of cooling capacity to be built up during less busy periods. 

Sample Custodians determine from the COC Form whether a temperature blank has been enclosed with the samples. If a temperature blank has been enclosed, Sample Custodians remove the ice, the packing material, and the samples from the cooler and line them up on a receiving table or in a fume hood, if samples emanate odor. They measure the cooler temperature by inserting a thermometer into the temperature blank. If the blank is not present, they measure the temperature inside the cooler by placing a thermometer or an infrared temperature probe between sample containers. The temperature of the cooler upon arrival to the laboratory should be 2-6°C whether it has been measured inside the cooler or in the temperature blank. To document sample conditions upon arrival at the laboratory, laboratories record the cooler temperature on the COC Form or use a separate cooler receipt form, similar to one shown in Appendix 17. Samples are then placed in storage refrigerators or walk-in coolers kept at 2-6°C. 

Power recovery turbines, which let down suitable refrigerants under pressure, are also being developed (2). In conjunction with absorption refrigeration, these could be used to recover power from compressor coolers and other low grade heat. 

The foam sheet is clean, bright in appearance, has excellent cushioning properties, and is nonporous. The foam is extruded as a sheet and is subsequently vacuum thermoformed into the desired shapes for packaging, etc. (Chapters 5 and 7). Use includes low temperature insulation in freezers, coolers, and other types of refrigerated rooms auto, truck bodies, and railroad cars refrigerated pipelines and low-temperature storage tanks for liquefied natural gas. They find usage as a replacement for molded-paper-pulp board in meat and produce trays and egg cartons. 

Cost of air conditioning. Price includes compressor, motor, starter, controls, cooler, condenser, and refrigerant. Does not include cooling tower, pumps, foundations, ductwork, and installation costs. 

Armed with the thermodynamic fundamentals of heat management, we now take a closer look at the unit operation control loops for heat exchangers. We start with utility exchangers. These are used when heat is supplied to, or removed from, the process. Examples are steam-heated reboilers, electric heaters, fuel-fired furnaces, water-cooled condensers, and refrigerated coolers. 

Each reactor has its own product cooler, and pairs of reactors and coolers operate alternately to permit cleanout of carbon. The cooled reactor product is fed directly to the prefractionator whose function is to separate the organic chlorides from propylene and hydrogen chloride. Liquid propylene from storage is used as reflux, its flow being regulated by a recorder-controller. This reflux is cooled to about — 40°C, the dew point of the top stream from the prefractionator, by self-refrigeration in a propylene flash drum.
