Cooling capacity using water vs. 60/40 EGW
Cooling capacity using water vs. 60/40 EGW
(OP)
Does anybody know how to quantify the performance difference when using 60/40 egw instead of water in a chiller evaporator that uses R134a refrigerant?

How cold are you going?
The mix should only have enough EG to keep the fluid from slushing, otherwise, you're simply wasting refrigerant capacity.

Glycol systems are usually slightly more expensive than water systems. There is a one-time initial cost to fill the system with 30-40% glycol.
Convenience - In cooling systems where components are frequently disconnected and reconnected, the glycol is typically captured and added back to the system
