chilled fluid (water) distribution Explanation: 'Coldness' is usually distributed through a fluid, mostly water. Coolant is incorrect, as it is normally at ambient temperature, such as coolant in a car engine. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-08-09 00:08:22 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I fail to see why the refrigerant inside the machine should be distributed; it is in a loop inside the machine. Refrigeration machines produce \'coldness\' for a purpose, and in larger installations (high rise bldgs., factories) it needs to be distributed. I have seen it! Professional experience |

refridgerant Explanation: i suppose they are talking about heat transfer media such as CFC's ,brine,ammonia etc. |

cold energy dispersion Explanation: The reason for choosing cold energy, (despite the quantity and nature of the very convincing explanations of Kaeltemittel as refigerant, cooling fluid, etc), is due to the mention of the fittings and insulation material. I can't see how the fluid can be distributed through these parts, (it is normally isolated and contained within a closed system via the steel tubes mentioned, oder?) I think the sentance elludes to the dispersion of the cold, (w-w/o energy mentioned), through these components.
