Temperature control valve for closed loop cooling system
liliput1: The retrofit I speak of is to modify an existing open loop system that has been in service for over ten years. My proposed heat exchanger will add an additional boundary between the raw water and the existing process water loop. I propose a straightforward environmental benefit over...- dlynnbell

Temperature control valve for closed loop cooling system
Thank-you all for your replies. Here's some more info I left out. Our raw water (secondary coolant) supply is gravity fed fresh water. (36" line @ 120psig) No pumps required. The Aux Cooling heat load varies from 5MMBtu/hr to 35MMBtu/hr depending on plant load. I want to keep 3000gpm...- dlynnbell

Temperature control valve for closed loop cooling system
I am doing preliminary design of a closed loop cooling system to retrofit an existing open loop cooling system. The new system will incorporate a recirc pump to provide a constant 3000gpm flow to the auxiliaries. A water to water heat exchanger will transfer the auxiliary loop heat to raw...- dlynnbell
