Abstract—Now a day’s man needs a sophisticated life with minimal economy and Branded materials made up of high précised components cost more which replicate the price of the machine/ components. Low cost with high performance is the most expected from all categories of people. Industries also follow the same concept of cost cutting and moves to material selection which gives high economic turn over. The Nano component promises the above concept. They are various researches on Nano materials gave way to improve the quality of existing working equipment's. In this work the performance test of chiller unit by using Nano fluid (TiO2) and water cooled condenser. The Water and Nano fluid (TiO2) served as the working fluid with the concentrations by volume 2 g/L. The condenser is double tube type condenser the outer shell is made by the PVC pipe and inner tube is made by copper. It contains eight shells and one pass. The performance was checked by varying the flow rate of water and Nano fluid in the condenser.
