Summary

The paper comprises the study of adding an inlet air precooler connected to the evaporator of an aqua-ammonia absorption chiller which is driven by the tail-end heat recovered from engine exhaust gases. The performance of the combined system shows less sensitivity to variations in operating variables. Thermoeconomic evaluation shows that the combined system is viable.
