PI Valves
2-way valve that supplies a specific flow for each value of the control signal – – Regardless of pressure variations in the system
PI Valve Pressure
Flow
Effects of Valve Overflow
• Contributes to low DT at coil • Over pumping:
more water ≠ more heat transfer • Instability/Controllability of Flow
Issues with Pressure Dependent Valves
Coil Output
For a given load, Flow and ΔT are inversely proportional. As GPM increases, ΔT drops.

Design and Function
Coils
• Air film coefficient of sensible heat transfer between air and the external surface of the coil
• Water film coefficient of heat transfer between the internal coil surface and the coolant fluid within the coil
• Unit conductance of the coil material
Based on a coil design with a clean, non-fouled surface
