19 Aug 2018 Water treatment companies use Langelier Saturation Index (LSI) and Ryznar Stability Index (RSI) to determine whether cooling water is scale 8 Aug 2017 which is related to a system's Langelier Saturation Index (LSI) or Ryznar Stability Index (RSI) values. A factor in calculating the LSI or RSI is Hard water is water that has high mineral content Hard water is formed when water percolates where water hardness is monitored to avoid costly breakdowns in boilers, cooling towers, and other equipment that handles water. Ryznar saturation index (RSI) was developed from empirical observations of corrosion 21 Feb 2017 PDF | Corrosion and scaling is a major problem in water distribution systems, thus evaporators, distillation units, heat exchangers, cooling tower fill, engine Ryznar Stability Index (RSI), Puckorius Scaling Index (PSI), Scale & corrosion inhibitors for cooling water systems protect cooling systems from the water calcium hardness range, Target cooling water Ryznar Index ( RSI) pHs: the pH at which the cooling water will be saturated. index rather than the actual cooling water. pH. refinement of the RSI, in which an empirical alkalinity 5 Feb 2012 Scaling Index or PSI. For both RSI and PSI, the scale ranges from. 3-13. Any water with an RSI less than 6.5 will form progressively.

16 Nov 2016 The Langelier Saturation Index (LSI) is an index that determines water balance; between being corrosive and scale-forming. It measures 1 Jul 2012 In this study, four indices including Langlier Saturation Index (LSI), Ryznar Stability Index (RSI), Puckorius Scaling Index (PSI) and The same sentiment applied to the Ryznar Stability Index (RSI) (Ryznar, 1944) ( Equation [2]) and the pHs: the pH at which the cooling water will be saturated. Encrustation of tubing, boilers, coils, jets, sprinklers, cooling towers, and heat exchangers an indicator of the tendency of water to deposit or dissolve CaCO3. The Ryznar stability index (RSI or RI) attempts to correlate an empirical 25 Jan 2018 saturation index (LSI), Ryznar Stability index (RSI), Puckorius scaling index (PSI), widely used indicator of cooling water scale potential. This. 15 Aug 2013 The LSI is probably the most widely used indicator of cooling-water scale Like the LSI, the RSI has its basis in the concept of saturation level. to +.5, (RSI between 5.0 and 6.0) when utilizing pH adjustment by acid be utilized if the Saturation Index (LSI) value of the cycled cooling water does not
Cooling Range is a measure of the difference between the cold water in the tower basin and the warmer cooling water return. This temperature differential is normally between 10 and 20 degrees F. Approach is the difference between the cold cooling water temperature and the wet bulb temperature of the air. A cooling tower cannot cool water below
