Preface

This manual examines chilled-water-system components, configurations, options, and control strategies. The goal is to provide system designers with options they can use to satisfy the building owners’ desires, but this manual is not intended to be a complete chiller-system design manual.

System designers may get the most use from this manual by familiarizing themselves with chilled-water-system basics and understanding the benefits of various options. Thereafter, when a specific job will benefit from these advantages, consult appropriate sections of the manual in detail.
