2.3 - Chiller flowchart and component function
description
Evaporator
The refrigerant is dispersed on the heat transfer tubes of the
evaporator. Chilled water running through the heat transfer
tubes of evaporator is cooled by the latent heat of vaporized
refrigerant.
Absorber
The concentrated solution is dispersed on the heat transfer
tubes of absorber. The refrigerant vapour from the evaporator
is absorbed on the heat transfer tubes of the absorber by the
concentrated solution. Cooling water running through the heat
transfer tubes of the absorber is heated by the absorption heat.
Heat exchanger
After leaving the absorber section the diluted solution passes
through the heat exchanger, where it is heated by the concen-
trated solution. The concentrated solution is cooled by the
diluted solution. Due to the lower temperature this cooling
process of the concentrated solution allows for greater
absorbing power.
Generator
The steam passes through the heat transfer tubes of the
generator. The diluted solution in the generator is heated by the
steam. It releases the refrigerant vapour and is concentrated to
become a concentrated solution.

Condenser
The refrigerant vapour from the generator is condensed on the
heat transfer tubes of the condenser. Cooling water from the
absorber is heated by condensation heat.
Purge unit
The purge unit collects the non-condensable gas in the chiller
and stores it in the purge tank.
