    air cooled condenser size calc????



    HI frns,
    Can any help me to calculate total length of an air cooled condenser required for 1 TON water chiller.
    Heat Load of chiller = 3.5kW
    Condensing temp.=50 degC , evaporating temp.=5 degC, R407C gas, condenser tube dia.=9.525mm copper tube(plain) with aluminium fins,

    secondary fluid(water) details:
    inlet water temperature=20 degC
    outlet water temp. = 15 degC
    temperature difference = 5 degC
    water flow rate =10 LPM

    You will find a number of useful software tools on this site, at very reasonable prices. I strongly endorse these products & use them myself.

    Please do as Des told you to but remember to add the compressor watts to the total heat removed.

    5,8 m is a rough estimate
    It's better to keep your mouth shut and give the impression that you're stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.
