WSHP System Control and Optimization Part 2: Freeze Protection Strategies for Cooling Towers
/
Most commercial WSHP system will require a cooling tower, which can either be an open or a closed-circuit design. If the system is in a part of the country that periodically sees sub-freezing temperatures during the heating season, it must be….
