design conditions. However, most systems will be called upon to deliver full load capacity for only a relatively small part of the time the unit is in operation.

CAPACITY CONTROL

The major components of a chiller are selected for full load capacities, therefore capacity must be controlled to maintain a constant chilled liquid temperature leaving the cooler. Prerotation vanes (PRV), located at the en- trance to the compressor impeller, compensate for varia- tion in load (See Fig. 2. Detail A).

The position of these vanes is automatically controlled through a lever arm attached to an electric motor lo- cated outside the compressor housing. The automatic adjustment of the vane position in effect provides the performance of many different compressors to match various load conditions from full load with vanes wide open to minimum load with vanes completely closed.
