Hello,
I have (maybe a dummy ) question to the DP cooling. In many manuals are written about what if the cooling is not sufficient enough. But nowhere I have seen what happends if the coolig is too eccessive. For example, the cooling water flow is too high and the return line water is cold. In my case the inlet temperature of the cooling water is 15 celsius, the return is max. 25 celsius, but often 21-23 celsius. I don't know the water flow , but it is surlely more than 0.15 gpm, which is the reccondended by the manufacturer. I read somewhere if the DP wall is too cold, than the oil cannot flow back enough fast and that slows the punping speed and lowers the fluid level in the pump.
So if I overcool my? DP, what happens? Slower pumping speed, at gas load, slower pump down? and/or higher base pressure, cannot reach the ultimate pressure of the system?
Any comments?
Regards
Attila
