Abstract
A method of controlling chiller capacity in a chiller system. The method comprises the steps of: measuring entering the fluid temperature of a fluid entering a heat exchanger; measuring the fluid temperature of the fluid leaving the heat exchanger; determining a desired leaving fluid temperature; establishing chiller capacity as a function of the difference between leaving fluid temperature and the desired leaving fluid temperature; and adjusting the determined chiller capacity as a function of the difference between entering fluid temperature and the desired leaving fluid temperature.
