Why Air-cooled chiller

The key difference between air-cooled and water-cooled chillers lies in how they handle condensation. Air-cooled chillers use air to cool the refrigerant, while water-cooled ones rely on a cooling tower and water. In air-cooled chillers, air passing over fin tube coils cools the refrigerant, while water-cooled chillers use water from cooling towers to cool the refrigerant through evaporation. However, this process results in a significant amount of water wastage, which poses economic and environmental challenges, especially in regions like Iran facing water shortages. Air-cooled chillers operate based on the compresrsion refrigeration cycle and are vital components in air conditioning and industrial refrigeration systems. They are typically installed in open spaces like rooftops or yards to allow heat transfer from the condenser coils to the surrounding air. The condenser coils, commonly made of aluminum fins and copper tubes, play a crucial role in cooling the refrigerant. Radiran, with over 50 years of experience in coil and heat exchanger production, is one of the leading providers of condenser coils, offering various capacities and configurations to meet different needs.
