A Water-Cooled Condenser is a heat exchanger that removes heat from refrigerant vapour and transfers it to the water running through it. Having the refrigerant vapour condensed on the outside of a tube achieves this. In doing so, the vapour condenses and gives up heat to the water running inside the tube.

What is the advantage of a water-cooled condenser?

Advantages of a Water-Cooled Condenser

A water-cooled system typically lasts years longer, assuming maintenance is not neglected. It has higher heat transfer rate. It consumes far less overall energy, which can lead to savings on energy costs and consumption. It does not require any external power.
