HOT WATER POWEREDABSORPTION CHILLERSFORINTEGRATION WITH CHP SYSTEMS

The benefits of CHP are fairly obvious and well understood…..

Electricity is generated locally from gas at approximately 30% efficiency

55% of the gas input is recovered as heat for heating the buildingor DHW

This leads to – reduced running / fuel costsreduced CO2 emissions

The benefits of CHP are fairly obvious and well understood…..

However, in commercial and public buildings cooling requirements can often outstrip heating requirements

This is where “tri-generation” becomes a favourable option

The heat from the CHP system can be used in summer to power a heat driven absorption chiller to provide building coolingp p g g

Building cooling is achieved by distribution of chilled water

In the case of an absorption chiller system, the energy to drive the working fluid comes from heat rather than an electrically driven compressor.

The rest of the system is the same.

In an absorption machine the “driving” heat can be in the form of hot water, steam or even direct firing by gas

It is the hot water fired model that is of interest forCHP applications…..

Time LineTime Line

1920s – 1930s : Gas-Fired Domestic Absorption Refrigerator

1950s – 1960s : Mass acceptance of Domestic product(over 4 million units sold)

1968 : First Commercial Gas-Fired Absorption Chiller developed

1970s – 1980s : Widespread acceptance of Commercial cooling product

Performance measures :Performance measures :

The efficiency of an electric chiller is defined as its COP

COP = Cooling Capacity (kW)Electric power used to drive the chiller (kW)

The COP of a heat driven absorption chiller is defined as

COP = Cooling Capacity (kW)Heat used to drive the chiller (kW)

3/21/2011

11

Performance measures :Performance measures :Typically, the seasonal COP of an electric chiller is between 2.0 to 3.0

While the COP of an absorption chiller is between 0.7 to 1.0

However, the two are not directly comparable because of how efficientlythe absorption chiller “driving” heat is produced compared with the efficiency at which the electricity is generated to drive the electric chiller

Environmental Benefits (1):Environmental Benefits (1):The use of Absorption chillers to provide building cooling / air conditioning can make tremendous Carbon (CO2) savings :

Electric chiller : 21 Tonnes of CO2

Absorption chiller powered by CHP : zero CO2(this is ADDITIONAL emissions – as CHP electrical power emissions are equivalent to power station)

Absorption chiller powered by Solar Thermal : zero CO2

Absorption chiller powered by Gas : 15.4 Tonnes of CO2

(based on 100kW chiller operating for 1,000 hours)

3/21/2011

12

Environmental Benefits (2):Environmental Benefits (2):Absorption chillers contain no F Gas refrigerants.

Estimates attribute 13% of ALL of the world’s Global Warming to leaked refrigerants in the atmosphere. This is a major concern and has lead to the development of the stringent F-Gas Regulations

Absorption chillers use the environmentally benign lithium bromide/water mixture or ammonia/water mixture. All of these

h d l l ( ) f d l b lconstituents have ozone depletion potential (ODP) of zero and global warming potential (GWP) of zero.

In addition the sealed working fluid circuit means the opportunity for refrigerant leakage is much less than with a conventional chiller.
