Chiller Plant

This document compares the capital costs, operating costs, and life cycle costs of a water cooled centrifugal chiller system versus an air cooled screw chiller system for cooling a 3,800 ton building. The water cooled system has a total investment of Rs. 21.37 crores with annual operating costs of Rs. 11.56 crores, while the air cooled system has a total investment of Rs. 19.77 crores but higher annual operating costs of Rs. 17.48 crores. Over the 15-20 year lifetime of the technologies, the water cooled system saves Rs. 1.60 crores in initial investment costs and Rs. 5.92 crores in energy costs compared to the air cooled system.
