Summary

THIS IS A DESCRIPTION OF THE PILOT SOLAR AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM BUILT FOR EVALUATION IN AN EIGHTEEN BED GENERAL HOSPITAL. THE TOTAL ENERGY COLLECTION RATE FOR THE 175 PANELS AT NOON IS APPROXIMATELY 195 KILOW. THE ABSORPTION CHILLERS REQUIRE 95 KILOW WITH A COP OF 0.7 ; THE EXCESS ENERGY IS STORED IN HOT WATER TANKS. IT IS CONCLUDED THAT WHILE A BOILER IS ECONOMICAL FOR BOOSTING WINTER HEATING, BOOSTING OF THE COOLING CAPACITY IS MORE ECONOMICALLY ACHIEVED BY THE USE OF A VAPOUR COMPRESSION WATER CHILLER. SCHEMATIC PLANT ARRANGEMENTS ARE INCLUDED TO SHOW THE HEATING AND COOLING SYSTEMS. E.W.S.
