The Effect of Water on Low Temperature Heat Transfer Fluid Performance

Water contamination of low-temperature heat transfer fluids is often blamed for poor performance in industrial cooling processes involving liquid nitrogen. This study by Paratherm Corp. simulated the coil freezing characteristics of 3 fluids - Paratherm CR, silicone and a d-limonene blend - at varying levels of water contamination.
