Evaluation method in energy efficient design of cooling plants

Abstract

The paper presents research in connection with a method of evaluating different cooling plant system architecture. This method is of analytical nature and is to be used primarily effectively solve problems regarding the selection of a cooling plant system architecture. A satisfactory solution here refers to a solution with a lower cost of total electricity consumption. The method's verification is presented by comparing two cooling plant with water cooled chillers system architecture. First of them is using cooling towers, while the other using dry coolers in the same mode.
