Summary

One way of improving the power efficiency of air refrigerating turbo-machines (RTM) is to combine low temperature production with
mechanical power generation, sea water desalination or in the processing of some technological products. A study has shown that refrigeration and electrical power generation via the combined application of RTM and gas turbine units will decrease refrigeration costs by 15-20%. In the case of regenerative systems utilizing waste heat from the RTM for sea water demineralization, the cost of low temperature production can be reduced by 15-20%. In addition, a high quality distillate is produced at the rate of 10-15 kg for every 1000 kJ of refrigeration.
