the design of the chilled water system that is used to neutralize heat was investigated. First
the stability of the water temperature was defined as: 1) The steady-state temperature; and 2) the time to reach steady-state temperature distribution in the pool. Then
a formula was deduced
by considering the heat transfer between the chilled water and heat sources
to represent the average temperature of the water in the pool over time. The main influencing factors of the theoretical minimum flow for cooling
steady-state temperature
required time
(e.g.
initial water temperature in the pool) mass flow rate
and temperature of the chilled water
were also analyzed. Finally
by determining key parameters
such as the mass flow rate and temperature of the chilled water in accordance to theneed in a real project
the temperature distribution of the pool water was examined using both computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation and theoretical calculation. The results showed that when the temperature of the chilled water was 17 ℃ the theoretical minimum flow was calculated as 83.67 t/h. After 6–7 months
the average temperature of the water in the pool could reach the steady-state temperature of 22.44 ℃.
