Application Considerations
but use it sparingly due to its lower efficiency. Or, a chiller may have a
different fuel source, used as a hedge against either high demand or high

Sizing” on page 78.)
Large Chilled-Water Systems
(6+ Chillers, District Cooling)
Figure 19. Large chilled-water system schematic

downtown districts, and mixed-use residential and commercial
developments.
