10. Eng. M. Vio Eng. L. A. Piterà - AiCARR TRIGENERATION SYSTEM Trigeneration or Combined Cooling, Heat and Power (CCHP) refers to the simultaneous generation of electricity and useful heating and cooling from the combustion of a fuel or a solar heat collector. 10 CCHP What changes in absorption chiller than vapour compression chiller…

11. Eng. M. Vio Eng. L. A. Piterà - AiCARR Condenser ABSORPTION CHILLER 11 A Vapour Compression Chiller is a machine that removes heat from a liquid via a vapor-compression refrigeration cycle. This liquid can then be circulated through a heat exchanger to cool air or equipment as required. The absorption cycle uses a heat-driven concentration difference to move refrigerant vapors (usually water) from the evaporator to the condenser. The high concentration side of the cycle absorbs refrigerant vapors (which, of course, dilutes that material). Heat is then used to drive off these refrigerant vapors thereby increasing the concentration again. Lithium bromide is the most common absorbent used in commercial cooling equipment, with water used as the refrigerant.

15. Eng. M. Vio Eng. L. A. Piterà - AiCARR HEAT PUMP (HP) 15 A Heat Pump (HP) is a device that transfers heat energy from a heat source to a heat sink against a temperature gradient. Heat pumps are designed to move thermal energy opposite to the direction of spontaneous heat flow To increase the Heat recovery of CCHP, can I use a Heat Pump for cooling the cabinet and the intercoller of CCHP, and increase their heat level (45° to 90°)

The adoption of double-effect absorption chiller to maximize cooling capacity. The logics of operation and support of various systems. At the moment we are monitoring and collecting data that will be presented soon as possible. (Parallel Session A4)
