- Chilled water provided from a utility plant is commonly used in a building’s HVAC system in lieu of installing chillers. Lower return water temperatures or low Delta T (∆T) decreases the efficiency of the entire chilled water system. This condition is known as “Low ∆T Syndrome”. Low ΔT syndrome is the result of the inefficient use of chilled water at the point of consumption. This presentation will provide a review of district chilled water system design and how low ∆T impacts both the chillers and the buildings the chillers are serving. We will also cover low ∆T and how it impacts pumping, causes of low ∆T, attempts to correct low ∆T and the relationship between low ∆T and chiller capacity. In conclusion, we will review a study of a building where “Low ∆T Syndrome” was corrected at the point of water to air heat transfer.
do we just modulate the belimo valves then by setting the desired return chill water temperature and forget about the supply air temperature?
