WATER CHILLERS WITH AMMONIA FOR BUILDING SERVICES

摘要

In recent years several successful projects in the City of London have proved ammonia to be arnviable alternative to standard chillers, particularly where there is an emphasis on reliability orrnenergy efficiency, or where there are particular constraints such as noise or space which predicaternthe design of a special package. Ammonia is not, however, the correct choice for all applications.rnThis paper addresses the design issues which need to be considered before selecting ammonia, andrnthen provides guidelines on how best to incorporate the chillers into the building. Furtherrndevelopments which would make ammonia more widespread are also discussed.
