hi fellow engineers,
I know this issue has been around for many years and I am aware of various pros and cons but I would like to hear opinions and reasons from engineers why they have chosen to design and install direct seawater cooling system in lieu of indirect system (use sw to cool fresh water loop to cool), especially those with feed back from their direct sw design.
many thanks
C&E
