2 . From the Performance Tables: CAPACITY: 27 .2 TONS; KW:

30 .6

3 . First find the water flow and pressure drop for pure water as

In the previous example .

GPM = (24)(27 .2)/10 = 65 .3 GPM

From Fig . 1, read pressure drop from mid . Curve as:

Pressure drop = 8 .5 ft . of water

4 . To convert performance data for pure water to data using 30%

Propylene Glycol, record the adjustment multipliers from Fig .

AM-1 & Fig . AM-2 on page 42:

CAPACITY factor: 0 .97

KW factor: 0 .988

GPM factor: 1 .022 Pressure Drop factor: 1 .20

5 . Calculate chiller performance using 30% Propylene Glycol by

multiplying the chiller performance data for pure water by the

adjustment factors as follows:

CAPACITY:

27 .2 x 0 .97 = 26 .38 TONS

KW:

30 .6 x 0 .988 = 30 .23 KW

GPM:

65 .3 x 1 .022 = 66 .74

GPM Pressure Drop: 8 .5 x 1 .20 = 10 .2 ft . of water
