Resorption refrigeration plant using waste heat below 100 °C to cover a refrigeration demand down to minus 5 °C.

Author(s) : MALEWSKI W.

Summary

There is a demand for cycles using waste heat as well as heat from district heating systems. The heating temperatures should be below 100 °C and a cooling down of the heat source of over 20 K is of interest. On the other hand, there is a demand for refrigeration not only for air conditioning applications (chilled water down to 5 °C) but also for refrigeration near or below the freezing point (brine cooling). In such cases the well-known resorption refrigeration cycle seems to be a technical solution operating with the binary mixture of ammonia (refrigerant) and water (absorbent). The paper presents the conditions to be fulfilled in order to build such a resorption cycle and the performances to be expected.
