Modeling the performance of small capacity lithium bromide-water absorption chiller operated by solar energy

Conference Saman, N F ; Sa`id, W A.D.K.

An analysis of the performance of a solar operated small capacity (two-ton) Lithium Bromide-Water (LiBr-H{sub 2}O) absorption system is conducted. The analysis is based on the first law of thermodynamics with lithium bromide as the absorbent and water as the refrigerant. The effect of various parameters affecting the machine coefficient of performance under various operating conditions is reported. Coefficient of performance of up to 0.8 can be obtained using flat plate solar collectors with generator temperatures in the range of 80--95 C (176--203 F). Liquid heat exchangers with effectiveness based on an NTU of the order of one would bemore »« less
Second-law analysis of multi-effect lithium bromide/water absorption chillers

Conference Lee, S F ; Sherif, S A

Thermodynamic second-law analysis combined with first-law analysis gives a premium to consideration of the quality of energy over the quantity involved in a process or a system. A detailed thermodynamic analysis leads the way to improve thermal systems and their components. Thus, this analysis can be applied as a useful tool for evaluation and improvement of absorption systems. Various configurations of absorption chillers using a LiBr/H{sub 2}O solution as the working fluid were analyzed and compared on the basis of the first and second laws of thermodynamics. These absorption systems include single-effect, double-effect, and triple-effect cycles. Simulation of these systemsmore »« less
Simulation and performance analysis of a 4-effect lithium bromide-water absorption chiller

Conference Grossman, G ; Zaltash, A ; DeVault, R C

Performance simulation has been conducted for a 4-effect lithium bromide-water chiller, capable of substantial performance improvement over state-of-the-art double-effect cycles. The system investigated includes four condensers and four desorbers coupled together, forming an extension of the conventional double-effect cycle; based on prior analytical studies, a parallel flow system was preferred over series flow, and double-condenser coupling was employed, to further improve performance. A modular computer code for simulation of absorption systems (ABSIM) was used to investigate the performances of the cycle. The simulation was carried out to investigate the influence of some major design parameters. A coefficient of performance aroundmore »« less

A direct, evaporatively cooled, three-ton lithium bromide-water absorption chiller for solar application

Conference Merrick, R H - ASHRAE Trans.; (United States)

Lithium bromide absorption machines first appeared commercially circa 1940. In all designs marketed, absorber/condenser heat has been rejected from the cycle through shell-and-tube exchangers to circulating water that is then processed in contact with the ambient air through a cooling tower. In mechanical refrigeration technology, evaporative condensing products have been an available alternative to water-cooled condensers with separate cooling towers. Lithium bromide machines have not been available with this alternative, mainly because of the difficulty of managing internal and external heat transfer processes through a common surface configuration that would meet all the needs satisfactorily. The main focus of thismore »« less
Report on field experiment program lithium bromide absorption chiller: Field gas conditioning project, Grayson County, Texas. Topical report, May 1991-December 1994

Technical Report Lane, M J ; Kilbourn, R A ; Huey, M A

The primary objective of the project was to determine the applicability of using commercial absorption air conditioning technology in an oil and gas field environment to condition natural gas to meet contractual limitations. Operational and maintenance requirements were documented throughout the test period of 1992 through 1994.
