The global water chillers market size was valued at USD 5.07 billion in 2018 and is projected to reach USD 9.43 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 4.4% during the forecast period. Asia Pacific dominated the water chillers market with a market share of 46.74% in 2018.


Water chiller refers to the mechanical device that is utilized to cool the water by removing heat. It has a water-cooled condenser that is connected with the cooling tower. The water chiller is installed internally, where there is an availability of sufficient water. Water chiller possess more efficiency than air conditioners. The primary reason behind this is, the thermal conductivity of water is 23 times more than air.


Growing demand for district cooling over the traditional cooling method is also fueling the water chiller market growth. In addition to this, the demand for water chillers is expected to increase in the developing countries in the near future.


The major application of water chiller is into the plastic & rubber and food and beverage industries and also in cooling equipment, assembly processes, etc.

Moreover, manufacturers are opting for mergers and acquisitions to maintain their position in the water-cooled chillers market. Also, they are introducing changes in the existing model to improve the performance in terms of high output and minimum sound emission. For instance, in April 2017, Daikin Industries, Ltd. launched its high-efficiency water-cooled screw chiller to handle the minimum emission of sound. Moreover, in 2018, Daikin Industries, Ltd. also launched a mini scroll chiller that removes cold and warm water to meet the heat recovery demands. Subsequently, in Europe, there are strict energy-saving regulations and high environmental awareness regarding emission sound.


MARKET DRIVERS


“Adoption of Energy Efficient Cooling Solution in Water Chillers to Boost Growth”


In the early 1900s, the emergence of water chiller was due to the utilization of the first centrifugal chiller. The components such as, evaporator, condenser, compressor, and refrigerants such as, R-22, etc. are utilized in water chillers to keep the industrial operations in proper flow without hampering the cooling process. Key parameters such as, high thermal conductivity of water, lower maintenance cost, vibration-less operation and requirement of small space, are expected to fuel the adoption of energy-efficient cooling solutions. In the chemical & petrochemical industry, petrochemicals that flow through pipes require cooling to decrease the heating pressure. Moreover, in the plastic & rubber industry, water chiller assist in cooling the hot plastic that has been extruded or is blown away. It is one of the most important Water Chiller market trends that would accelerate growth.


For instance, in December 2018, Daikin Industries, Ltd. introduced the energy-saving free cooling for its R-32 chiller series with improved seasonal efficiency of up to 97%. Also, in April 2018, Blue star Ltd. introduced a wide range of water-cooled scroll chillers with R22, R407C, and R410A refrigerant options. The water chiller of 65 TR is incorporated with an optional tandem circuit, which increases the operating efficiency whenever the chiller operates under part-load conditions.


SEGMENTATION


By Type Analysis


“Centrifugal Segment to Grow at a Higher CAGR Stoked by the Possession of Various Benefits”


Based on type, the market is classified into scroll, screw, and centrifugal water chiller.  Among these, centrifugal water chiller segment is anticipated to grow exponentially over the forecast period, owing to its low maintenance and manufacturing cost. Centrifugal chillers were introduced in the early 1900s by Mr. Willis Carrier. It was influenced by the tailor hydraulic air compressor. The technology grew rapidly.  Centrifugal chillers remove the heat from entering in the chilled water. For instance, Trane introduced Agility™, a water-cooled centrifugal chiller product line. Agility uses compact, high-performance, integrated, low charge (CHIL) evaporators that decrease the total chiller refrigerant charge by up to 25 percent.
