Evaporative condenser, also known as evaporative cooling and cooling (condenser), is a kind of equipment that absorbs the heat of the high-temperature gaseous refrigerant in the coil when the spray water outside the coil is partially evaporated, so that the refrigerant in the tube is gradually cooled from the gaseous state to the liquid state.
The operating cost of the system is low
Condensing temperatures within a wet-bulb design temperature of 8.3°C are very practical and economical, with the result that the compressor power is at least 10% less than other cooling tower/condenser systems, and 30% less power than air-cooled condenser systems, which is equivalent to the power consumed by the fans of the cooling tower/condenser system and is about 1/3 of the fan power of the same size air-cooled condenser fans. Due to the low head of the pump and the reduced water flow, the pump power is approximately 25% of the pump power required in a typical cooling tower/condenser system.
Save on initial investment
The evaporative condenser integrates the cooling tower, condenser, circulating water pool, circulating water pump and water pipe, which reduces the equipment such as cooling tower, circulating water pump and water pipe, and also reduces the cost of handling and installing individual components in the cooling tower/condenser system. Because the evaporative condenser makes efficient use of the evaporative cooling heat exchange method, it can effectively reduce the heat exchange area, the number of fans and the power consumption of the fan motor.
Space-saving
Evaporative condensers save valuable space by combining the condenser coil and cooling tower into one, and eliminate the need for larger pumps and lines as is the case with cooling tower/condenser systems. Evaporative condensers require only about 50% of the windward area of an air-cooled condenser of the same size.
