Abstract
To achieve energy saving in the cooling towers as a whole in a heat source system including a plurality of cooling towers connected in parallel to a common chiller. In a heat source system, a plurality of cooling towers are connected in parallel to a common chiller. The cooling towers cool cooling water used and thereby heated in the chiller, and supplies the cooled cooling water to the chiller. A cooling tower control device for controlling the cooling towers starts all the cooling towers at the start of the heat source system.
Claims10
A cooling tower control device that controls a heat source system including a plurality of cooling towers connected in parallel to a common chiller, comprising:
- a processing device and a computer readable non-transitory recording medium that stores a program that causes the processing device to:
- start fans of all the cooling towers irrespective of a cooling capacity required for the cooling towers as a whole at a start of the heat source system.
A method of controlling cooling towers applied to a heat source system including a plurality of cooling towers connected in parallel to a common chiller, the method comprising
- starting fans of all the cooling towers irrespective of a cooling capacity required for the cooling towers as a whole, at a start of the heat source system.
