Summary
Notes the resurgence of absorption chillers in the USA after their displacement by electric-driven vapour compression systems in the mid 1970s (reasons are environmental and economic). Explains the absorption heating and refrigeration cycles. Gives the historical perspective and looks at the improved quality and reliability of today's equipment, including much improved maintenance characteristics.
