One of the greatest incentives for designing a chilled water system to be variable primary is reducing the likelihood and problems associated with low Delta-T syndrome. It is, after all, one of the most common and costly problems in standard primary secondary chilled water design. But how exactly does variable primary reduce…
Read MoreThere are many advantages to the traditional primary secondary chilled water design, overall simplicity being at the top of the list. So why has the industry leaned into variable primary…
Read MoreWhat is a variable primary chilled water system? How does it differ operationally from a primary/secondary system? And why might you choose one chilled water design approach over the other? In this series on Variable-Primary Chilled Water Systems, we’ll be answering…

Now that we know what happens when we vary flows and mix temperatures in a primary secondary pumping system, let’s explore these theories in some more realistic scenarios.
As discussed in a previous blogs, when it comes to primary secondary systems, one of three flow patterns is always in occurrence:

Low Delta T Syndrome. The terminology alone strikes fear in the hearts of anyone involved in chiller plant design or operation. We know Low Delta T Syndrome is bad. We know it wastes energy. The very topic has given rise to countless technical articles and white papers that most of us haven’t the time or patience read. But take heart because believe it or not, if you’ve read and understand Part 1 and Part 2 of this Series, you already have the building blocks to understand Low Delta T Syndrome. You just don’t know it yet.
