Vito,
here at UofMichigan, one of our PCW systems runs about 62.5F (16.9C) with a
daily deviation of about 1F. The second runs about 59-60F (15C). It too
has a daily deviation of about 1F. For both systems we may see a seasonal
deviation of 3-4F as the main chiller plant transitions from "free cooling"
to the use of chillers to create cooling water for the campus wide loop.
We also "polish" both loops to 1 meg-ohm so that we have a "high
resistance" in the RF cooling circuits.
