Summary

The possibility of using district heating for cold production for lower cold capacities was investigated. A function model with a cold capacity of 50 kW was set up which operates according to the principle of single-effect absorption and manages with low supply temperatures (80 °C). A compact layout was achieved by installing plate packages. Numerous measurements show that the layout examined displays stable operating behaviour and achieves a COP factor of about 0.8. At part-load more that >20%, the COP factor is of the order of magnitude of 0.6.
