Chiller
A chiller is a machine that removes heat from a liquid via a vapor-compression or absorption refrigeration cycle. Most often water is chilled, but this water may also contain ~20%
glycol and
corrosion inhibitors; other fluids such as thin oils can be chilled as well.Chilled water is used to
cool and dehumidify air in mid- to large-size commercial, industrial, and institutional (CII) facilities. Most chillers are designed for indoor operation, but a few are weather-resistant. Chillers are precision machines that are very expensive to purchase and operate, so great care is needed in their selection and maintenance.
Engineers are normally retained to evaluate applications' cooling needs, and to specify the optimal machines.
