How does a water chiller pump work?

Answer 1

a chiller is a device which is cooling water (or other liquids). it uses a refrigerant system (like in an air conditioner) to cool down the water, so you have 2 loops: .refrigerant system cools water which are used to cool your system.

the cold water are being pumped with the water pump , to the system you want to cool down.

few types of water pumps are avilable: Positive displacement, turbine, centrifuge and other. the general idea is that the pump sucking a volume of liquid (water) and transfer it to a smaller volume and by doing so- creats pressure. usually we uses a rotary mechanism which is doing it continiusly:

a volume of water is being transfer from big volume to a small one- by rotating a shaft. the shaft continue to rotate and agin suck new volume of water and transfer it, so on.
