Author(s) : DORGAN C. B., LEIGHT S. P., DORGAN C. E.

Type of monograph: Guide/Handbook

Summary

Reference manual for the application of indirect-fired absorption machine. It contains the information required to properly incorporate absorption technology into a wide range of applications, including commercial space cooling, central plant cooling, and industrial applications where recoverable heat is available. It provides a logical progression from vapour-compression technology to absorption technology. Extract of contents: introduction (basic background and terminology); required system characteristics; economics of absorption systems; heat recovery; absorption process; lithium bromide-water absorption cycle; aqueous ammonia absorption cycle; matching heat sources, cooling load capability and heat rejection with an absorption machine; lithium-bromide absorption machine applications; ammonia absorption refrigeration machine applications; other technologies. Property charts, tables, as well as algorithms for charts and computer program ASHSORPT (on disquette included) are given in the appendices.
