CAPITAL COST REDUCTIONS IN ABSORPTION CHILLERS.

Author(s) : LEIGH R. W.

Summary

THE PROJECT IS AN ASSESSMENT OF THE POSSIBILITY OF DRAMATICALLY LOWERING THE COSTS OF A NEW GENERATION OF ABSORPTION CHILLERS BY USING LESS MATERIAL. THE AUTHORS TESTED A SET OF POLYMERIC AND METALLIC MATERIALS APPROPRIATE TO PARTICULAR COMPONENTS, WHICH MEET THESE COST GOALS AND THEY SUBJECTED THESE MATERIALS TO LONG-TERM AND ELECTROCHEMICAL TESTING AND ESTABLISHED THAT MANY OF THEM WOULD PERFORM AS REQUIRED. THEY BUILT AND TESTED SMALL HEAT EXCHANGERS, WHICH INDICATE THAT THESE MATERIALS WILL PERFORM SATISFACTORILY, DEVELOPED A METHOD FOR THE ULTRASONIC WELDING OF STAINLESS STEEL FOILS, CONTINUED DEVELOPMENT OF THEIR CONCEPTUAL DESIGN, AND CON-STRUCTED A SIMULATION MODEL THAT INDICATES THIS DESIGN WILL OPERATE WITH A FUEL-BASED COP OF 1.0.
