Dear Ronaldo -

Here's some related numbers that I collected when Rigaku and I were trying
to diagnose a chiller problem in my then-new 007HF.

At 1.2 kW (full power; 40 kV/30 mA), the generator was dumping 2.2 kW of
heat into the closed water loop of the chiller.  Flow was 1.1 gpm, and
water temp into the generator was 20 C, water temp out was 35 C.  We
eventually determined that the Haskris R033 (1/3 hp) was too small to take
the heat load, even though a similar system had worked in other
installations.  Replacing the Haskris with a 3/4 hp model allowed the
chiller to handle the heat from the generator.

This was a refrigerated, water-cooled Haskris system: a closed loop of
circulating water cooling the X-ray generator,with a refrigeration system
taking the heat from the closed loop and dumping it into a city water open
loop.  I would say that, for this system, the 1/3 hp chiller was marginal
(worked for some people, not for me) while the 3/4 hp chiller is more than
adequate.  We never did figure out where the extra 1 kW of heat came from;
the only things that the water cools are the anode and the tube tower.

Hope that's helpful.  I can provide a few more details if you want.

- Matt
