We\u2019ve already talked about heat pumps<\/strong><\/a> in a video in our Tempco Youtube<\/a> channel, maybe skipping a step. That\u2019s why I\u2019m dedicating a new tutorial to the functioning of a chiller<\/strong><\/a> (english subtitles available), responding to many requests I\u2019ve received.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s start saying that we all have a chiller in our own homes: a refrigerator is indeed a chiller, working on the same physical principles. The explanation of the thermal cycle of a chiller<\/a><\/strong> can be commonly found in many sources on the web, involving cycles of compression, expansion, evaporation and condensation. I wanted better to underline an essential concept, being the fact that a chiller is not a \u2018cold maker\u2019<\/strong>, but it simply removes heat, using a refrigerant gas, or freon<\/strong><\/a>, as fluid thermal vector.<\/p>\n
