Handbook on indirect refrigeration and heat pump systems. (Digital or Paper version)

Author(s) : MELINDER Å.

Type of monograph: Guide/Handbook

Summary

Although most refrigeration systems are constructed as direct systems, i.e. systems with direct expansion, indirect systems with secondary fluid circuits have long been used for systems where there are many places to be cooled or where long pipes are required, such as in artificial ice rinks, commercial refrigeration and ground-source heat pumps with long collector tubes in the ground. Indirect systems have come into focus to an ever-increasing extent because of requirements governing tighter constructions in order to minimize refrigerant leakage from plants as well as changing legislation implemented in order to achieve the phasing out of various types of CFC, HCFC and high-GWP refrigerants. A Handbook on indirect systems was published in Swedish in 2010 in cooperation with over twenty companies and experts and an English translation has been prepared by the IIR. The chapters deal with the following topics: 1. Direct and indirect systems, 2. Indirect system solutions, 3. Components, 4. Secondary fluids, 5. Corrosion, 6. Environmental aspects, 7. Projecting and dimensioning, 8. Design and control of system, 9. System construction and installation and 10. Optimization of indirect systems. An expectation of all involved in producing the Handbook is that it will help to better understand and work with indirect systems.
