Water is used to cool the hot air refrigerant from the compressor by pumping counter-flow in the condenser..
In this design, the inner tube is inserted into the outer tube and both pipes are formed into the shape of coil to save space.
The inner tube can be designed to have grooved inner tube to increase the transfer between the refrigerant and the water..
The only way to get rid of the deposits is to use suitable chemical to breakdown the minerals and flushed them out from the tube..
The water will flow through the coil to cool the hot gas refrigerant in the shell.
The liquid refrigerant is channeled out from the condenser for use in the next stage of the cooling process..
Instead of channeling the water away to ponds or drainage system the water can be cooled and then recirculated by using tower.
The water is piped away from the condenser and feed into the tower.
The water that comes out from the tower is then piped back to the condenser and the whole process repeats..
