MIUS TECHNOLOGY EVALUATION - LITHIUM BROMIDE-WATER ABSORPTION REFRIGERATION

摘要

Air conditioning by absorption refrigeration which utilizes heat re¬covered from engines and from incineration of solid waste is a utility service which can be included in a MIUS. This report reviews the suit¬ability of lithium bromide—water absorption refrigeration for such an ap¬plication.nTypes and sizes of units manufactured and their availability are discussed. Single-effect lithium bromide—water absorption systems are available from domestic manufacturers, and double-effect systems will probably be available in the near future. Capital and operation and main¬tenance costs are given for single-effect absorption refrigeration systems.nWhere waste heat is available from electric power generation, a total energy system will use less fuel than a conventional system supplying electric power and using compressive refrigeration over a wide range of conditions. Fuel consumption comparisons are made between total energy and conventional systems providing the same service.
