Summary

In this paper, a reverse series flow, double-effect absorption system employing a VRA (vapour recompression absorber) unit operating over a wide range of internal pressure differences is investigated. The performance is compared to a conventional double-effect cycle. Since the VRA requires an electric motor, the impact of gas and electric utility rates on the operating costs of double-effect with the VRA unit cycles and conventional double-effect absorption chillers also are compared.
