From Whaley Products, Incorporated 
Plastic extrusion processes require chilled water to function correctly. Extruding companies have been turning to WPI for over 15 years for dependable, high efficient, American made chiller systems to cool their processes. Whaley Products has the ability to produce modular chillers, packaged chillers, portable chillers, split chiller systems, glycol chillers, and once through cooling systems. To determine the size of chiller you'll need for your plastic process cooling application, follow this formula: 1. Calculate the pounds of material per hour being processed. 2. Determine how many pounds per hour are required for each ton of cooling capacity. 3. Determine if the extruder or any auxiliary equipment will require chilled water. 4. Size the equipment cooling capacity. 5. Combine the process and equipment cooling requirements. 6. Size your chiller by rounding up to the closest standard unit. **The extruder manufacturer can supply the flow rate through the feed throat and the approximate flow rate to control the barrel in a water-cooled extruder.
Also to consider: How much heat supplied by viscous shear heating has to be removed?
