Two-phase flow turbines as stand-alone throttle replacement units in large 2000-5000 ton centrifugal chiller installations.

Author(s) : HAYS L. G., BRASZ J. J.

Summary

The paper describes the development and commercial introduction of stand-alone two-phase flow power recovering turbo-expanders for the HVAC market. The units are designed to be installed in parallel to existing throttle valves of large 2000-5000 ton water-cooled chillers. A first unit has recently been installed at a commercial building in Manhattan.
