We developed a single-double effect combined absorption chiller for "Solar air-conditioning system" . This chiller is composed of a highly-efficient gas absorption chiller as a main machine which are equipped with a solar heat recovery unit comprising a heat recovery heat exchanger and special condenser. It enables low temp. solar hot water at 75°C under operation at the cooling rating of load factor: 100%. And we constructed the demonstration plant in Japan. We confirmed that the solar heat priority usage function and gas-based backup function operate properly and overall system functions normally. In summer, fuel gas reduction by 10% could be achieved and the results as estimated were obtained.

AbstractThis paper proposes an algorithm for the cooperative operation of air conditioning facilities and the energy storage system (ESS) in railway stations to minimize electricity. Unlike traditional load patterns, load patterns of an urban railway station can peak where energy charge rates are not high. Due to this possibility, if applying the traditional peak-reduction algorithm to railway loads, energy changes can increase, resulting in higher electricity bills. Therefore, it is required to develop a new method for minimizing the sum of capacity charges and energy charges, which is a non-linear problem. To get a feasible solution for this problem, we suggest an algorithm that optimizes the facility operation through two optimizations (primary and secondary). This method is applied to the air-quality change model for operating air conditioning facilities as demand-response (DR) resources in railway stations. This algorithm makes it possible to estimate operable DR capacity every hour, rather than calculating the capacity of DR resources conservatively in advance. Finally, we perform a simulation for the application of the proposed method to the operation of DR resources and ESS together. The simulation shows that electricity bills become lowered, and the number of charging and discharging processes of ESS is also reduced.

Abstract It is a general trend today, the old centrifugal machines to be replaced by new absorption machines. The mass flow rate of the cooling water in the centrifugal machines is normally 30% less than that in the two-stage absorption chiller for the same refrigerating capacity. Some absorption chillers manufacturers have updated and improved the double-effect technology increasing the cooling water temperature difference from the typical value of 5.5°C to 7.4°C and reducing the cooling water flow rate by about 30%. Using such a modern double effect absorption unit to replace a centrifugal chiller the same cooling water circuit can be used and the total cost of the retrofit is minimized. In this case a new flow pattern of the cooling tower is developed, and in this paper the design of a new tower fill is predicted taking into account the new factors characterizing the operating conditions and the required performance of the tower. As an example, the operational curves of a modified cooling tower (1500 KW cooling power) used by a 240 RT double-effect absorption chiller are presented.
