The chiller refrigerant is more than just Freon?

A chiller is a kind of refrigeration system. As a refrigeration system, it must have a refrigeration medium to be able to function normally. What is a refrigeration medium? It’s a refrigerant, it’s a refrigerant. Different places and different habits have different names. The refrigerant of the chiller is of course the necessary medium for the normal cooling of the chiller. However, for most people, you may not know that cold water The refrigerant of the machine is not just Freon, it may also be-other substances!

In any case, even if it is not a Freon-type refrigerant or refrigerant, even if it is other substances, then it must be liquid. This is no doubt. Then, besides Freon, what other refrigerants will there be in the chiller?

Basically, in addition to Freon, the most common is water, which may be unbelievable to everyone, that’s right! Water is the most common liquid substance. Water also has the energy to transfer to the cold. Moreover, when the water is pure, its heat conduction and cooling capacity are actually very high!

Water cannot be used in the case of low cooling temperature requirements. Moreover, water is generally used as chilled water above zero. When used as a refrigerant or as a refrigerant, air cooling is often used to cool the refrigerant. Through the condensation or evaporation process.

Therefore, even if the price of water is very cheap and the source is very wide, water is not a refrigerant or refrigerant that can be widely used in industrial production. Therefore, it should be ruled out!

In addition to Freon, the most common type of chiller refrigerant and refrigerant, in fact, is ammonia. Ammonia was actually used earlier than fluorine-based refrigerants. Fluorine-based refrigerants are frequently used mainly because ammonia is used as a refrigerant and refrigerant. It has certain defects in itself, such as the shape stability of ammonia is not very good, and Ammonia is more toxic than Freon and has certain harm to the human body. Freon is very harmful to the human body, so it can allow a certain amount of leakage. Therefore, fluorine-based refrigerants have certain advantages in the use of refrigerants.

The advantage of ammonia is that it is more suitable for operation in refrigeration systems than the pressure of fluorine refrigerants, and ammonia is generally used as a cryogenic and ultra-low temperature chiller system. As a cryogenic refrigerant and refrigerant, ammonia can be said to It is more suitable for chillers than fluorine!
