Dear all

I am doing a project to optimize the power consumption of a water cooled chiller . But my consultant told me that i can first make a model to estimate the power consumption of a chiller base on the change of (1) chilled water flow, (2) chilled water supply temper, (3) chilled water return temperature, (4) condenser water temperature(entering chiller), (5) Condenser flow.

What is the benefits in estimating power consumption of the chiller?

Once i know the power consumption under some conditions, what i can do to lower the chiller power consumption?

Thank You
