Abstract

In this paper, the volume flowrate of chilled water in the water chiller simulation apparatus was optimized using experimental studied. The experimental analysis was performed on the fan coil unit (FCU) of the system. The chilled water flows in tube side and the air as a hot fluid flows throughout the tube and fin of FCU. The thermal performance and analysis of the heat transfer is examined using various chilled water flowrate e.g. 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 lpm. The effect of the flowrate to the important parameter such as LMTD temperature, heat absorb used for investigate the heat transfer characteristics. The result showed that the heat transfer characteristics has been increased with the increased of chilled water volume flowrate.
