The table shows the recommended values. The values in bold are rejection limits.
If additives are used in the cooling water, take into account that the cooling capacity will
change.
Δm = ((C

with
Δm: change of mass flow of the coolant
C
pw
: specific heat capacity of water
C
pa
: specific heat capacity of the additives
X: the percentage of additives
