What is the function of the liquid cooler in a chiller system?
What is the function of the liquid cooler in a chiller system?
- To regulate the flow of refrigerant in the system
- To remove heat from air or water by vaporizing the refrigerant (correct)
- To cool the warm water
- To increase the pressure of the refrigerant
Where does the vaporization process occur in the shell-and-tube heat exchanger?
Where does the vaporization process occur in the shell-and-tube heat exchanger?
- Inside the tubes with liquid refrigerant (correct)
- Outside the heat exchanger
- In the compressor
- Inside the shell with warm water
What happens to the warm water as it interacts with the refrigerant in the heat exchanger?
What happens to the warm water as it interacts with the refrigerant in the heat exchanger?
- It heats the refrigerant and turns it into a gas through vaporization process (correct)
- It cools down and exits the system
- It increases in temperature and pressure
- It becomes a part of the refrigerant cycle
