from the refrigerant vapor, causing it to condense. The


condenser water is supplied to the chiller from an ex-
ternal source, usually a cooling tower. The condensed
refrigerant drains from the condenser into the liquid
return line, where the variable orifice meters the flow
of liquid refrigerant to the evaporator to complete the
refrigerant circuit.
The major components of a chiller are selected to han-
dle the refrigerant, which would be evaporated at full
load design conditions. However, most systems will be
called upon to deliver full load capacity for only a rela-
tively small part of the time the unit is in operation.

CAPACITY CONTROL
The major components of a chiller are selected for full
load capacities, therefore capacity must be controlled
to maintain a constant chilled liquid temperature leav-
ing the evaporator. Prerotation vanes (PRV), located at
the entrance to the compressor impeller, compensate
for variation in load (Refer to Figure 2 on Page 8).
