Definitions
- the present invention relates to a generator for an absorption chiller for separating refrigerant and absorbent from a solution of the two.
- An absorption chiller circuit supplies liquid refrigerant to an evaporator.
- the refrigerant in the evaporator absorbs heat from its surroundings to provide a desired cooling effect and undergoes a phase change from liquid to vapour.
- the vapourised refrigerant is then absorbed by an absorbent to form a solution of the two.
- the solution is supplied to a generator in which the two are separated, generally by boiling off the refrigerant as vapour which is then condensed and supplied to the evaporator again to continue to provide the desired cooling effect.
- the separated absorbent is used to absorb the vapourised refrigerant from the evaporator.
- a generator for an absorption chiller comprises a container with an inlet to receive solution of absorbent and refrigerant; a first outlet for refrigerant vapour to leave the container; and
- a barrier is provided within the container between the inlet and the second outlet and the barrier is arranged such that for non-vapourised liquid to leave through the second outlet it must pass under a first portion of the barrier and over a second portion of the barrier.
- the portion of the non-vapourised liquid that contains most absorbent, forming the most concentrated absorbent solution will be the most dense and so will settle at the bottom of the container.
- the barrier being arranged such that non-vapourised liquid must pass under the first portion of the barrier, only the more concentrated absorbent solution is passed to the second outlet.
- the size of the gap through which the non-vapourised liquid passes under the first portion of the barrier determines the concentration of the non-vapourised liquid removed.
- the container By the barrier being arranged such that the non-vapourised liquid must pass over the second portion of the barrier, the container will not run out of refrigerant-absorbent solution during use. Fluid in the portion of the container on the inlet side of the barrier will be turbulent because of the continued delivery of more solution through the inlet, the boiling-off of refrigerant vapour and the possible delivery and withdrawal of the solution for other purposes. It is thus very difficult to determine the level of solution in the container. However, as solution only passes to the second outlet side of the barrier by passing under the first portion of the barrier, the portion of the container on the second outlet side of the barrier contains a relatively calm volume of solution.
- a viewing means such as a clear panel is preferably provided in the container wall on the second outlet side of the barrier to view the level of solution in the container.
- Non-vapourised solution with a lower concentration of absorbent than that at the bottom of the container may be withdrawn from a higher portion of the container as described in the following detailed description.

- Figure 12 are graphs representing efficiency and heat exchange tube wall temperature in a generator illustrated in Figures 1 to 11 having eleven rows of heat exchange tubes and heated by a fuel gas burner rated at 350kW.
- like references identify the same or comparable parts.
- an absorption chiller 2 comprises a regenerator 4 supplying refrigerant in its vapour or gaseous phase along line 6 to a condenser 8 (known per se) and supplying concentrated liquid absorbent along line 10 via one-way valve 12 and a pump 14 to an absorber 16 (known per se). From the condenser 8 liquid refrigerant is supplied to an expansion arrangement 18 (known per se) in line 20 and thence the refrigerant enters evaporator 22 (known per se).
- Line 24 carries refrigerant vapour to the absorber 16 in which the refrigerant dissolves in the absorbent to form a weak solution of absorbent containing refrigerant. That solution is conveyed via one-way valve 26 in line 28 and a pump 30 to the regenerator in which the weak solution becomes concentrated absorbent by boiling-off the refrigerant.
- the refrigerant is water (H 2 O) in which case the refrigerant vapour on line 6 can be steam, and the liquid absorbent is lithium bromide (LiBr solution/H 2 ⁇ ) though other refrigerant and absorbent combinations may be used, for example ammonia as refrigerant and water as absorbent.
- the regenerator 2 comprises a base frame 32 supporting an outer casing 34 of parallel piped shape (shown in dotted line in Figures 5 to 7) and a lower tank 36 of substantially rectangular cross-section having a flat top 37 from which ascend a plurality of substantially vertical heat exchange tubes 38A and 38B, tubes 38A having cylindrical, plain outer surfaces whilst the tubes 38B have heat collecting formations formed by fins 40.
- the heat exchange tubes 38 A, 38B open through a flat base 41 of an upper tank 42 of substantially rectangular cross-section and greater volume than the lower tank 36.
- heat insulating material having an upper inner face 44A (Figure 2), lower inner face 44B ( Figure 2), and two opposite side inner faces 44C and 44D ( Figure 5) defining between them a combined combustion chamber and flue 46 also defined in part by surfaces of the tank top 37 and tank bottom 41.
- the heat insulation may comprise one or more layers of suitable material, for example ceramic fibre board and/or ceramic blanker and/or Rock wool.
- the heat exchange tubes 38A, 38B are substantially wholly within the combustion chamber 46.
- a gas burner 50 of a pre-mix type having an electrically driven fan or impeller propelling combustion air pre-mixed with a fuel gas to a burner outlet orifice or combustion surface which may be disposed within a vertically elongate substantially rectangular frame 52 (Figure 2) within the casing 34 having longer side walls 54 (only one shown, Figure 2).
- the aforesaid burner outlet orifice may comprise a metal fibre burner.
- a downstream flue path within a rectangular tube 56 leads from combustion chamber 46.
- the heat exchange tubes 38 A, 38B are in cross-flow relation with, more particularly at a right-angle to, flow direction X of hot heating gas or products of combustion through the combustion chamber 46 from the burner 50. It can also be seen that the heat exchange tubes 38 A, 38B are arranged in a plurality of rows, in this particular example eleven rows, spaced one from another along the flow direction of the hot products of combustion of each row extending transversely to the direction of flow X of the combustion products - there being at least two heat exchange tubes per row, in this example four heat exchange tubes per row.
- the finned heat exchange tubes 38B are disposed at or towards the downstream end of the array of tubes 38A, 38B, whereas the plain heat exchange tubes 38A are upstream of the finned heat exchange tubes in the array.
- the plain heat exchange tubes 38A are upstream of the finned heat exchange tubes in the array.
- thermo-syphon tubes 58A and 58B are disposed substantially vertically and extend from the lower tank 36 to the upper tank 42 and open into each. As will be understood from Figures 5 to 7 the thermo-syphon tubes 58 A, 58B are surrounded by the heat insulating material which screens the tubes from the combustion chamber 46 and opposes heat transfer from the combustion chamber to the thermo-syphon tubes. With respect the direction X of products of combustion flow in the combustion chamber 46, 60 and 62 are upstream ends respectively of the tanks 36 and 42 and 64 and 66 are the respective downstream ends. The thermo-syphon tubes 58A and 58B open into the upper and lower tanks 42, 36 adjacent to the respective upstream ends 62, 60.
- thermo-syphon tube 58B is downstream of the tube 58A and opens into the lower tank 36 about substantially mid-way therealong and opens into the upper tank 42 nearer to the upstream end 62 then the downstream end 66.
- the number of thermosyphons, their size and inlet-outlet positions can all be adjusted.
- An inlet tube 68 to supply weak refrigerant/absorbent solution from line 28 (Figure 1) to the upper tank 42 opens thereinto opposite to the entrance to the thermo- syphon tube 58 A (see Figures 4 and 5).
- An outlet tube 70 for carrying off concentrated absorbent solution to line 10 leads from the downstream end 66 of the upper tank, and an outlet tube 72 to carry off refrigerant vapour or gas to the line 6 ( Figure 1) leads from the top of the upper tank.
- the unit comprising upper and lower tanks 36, 42, the heat exchange tubes 38A, 38B and the thermo-syphon tubes 58 A, 58B can be formed of metal, for example carbon steel. However because the absorbent used may be corrosive, it may be preferred to form the aforesaid unit of corrosion resistant metal, for example cupro-nickel.
- the weak solution descends to the lower tank 36 through the thermo-syphon tubes 58 A, 58B and then ascends to the upper tank through the heat exchange tubes 38 A, 38B.
- the heat exchange tubes 38 A, 38B may be substantially half full of aforesaid boiling off vapour.
- the plain tubes 38 A form rows 1 to 7 and the finned tubes 38B form rows 8 to 11.
- the products of combustion tend to be hotter at the upstream end of the array of heat exchange tubes 38 A, 38B than at the downstream end.
- the tubes 38B are finned to increase therein ability to extract heat from the relatively cooler downstream combustion products.
- thermo-syphon tube 58A tends to receive the initially input weak solution from the inlet and feed it to a position in the lower tank 32 from which the solution is more likely to ascend through upstream heat exchange tubes 38 A, say tube rows 1, 2, and 3, which are exposed to the hottest combustion products.
- a vapour permeable demister pad 74 which may be of metal mesh or fibre is disposed in front of the entrance to the outlet pipe 72, and in front of or below the pad is a baffle plate 76 to prevent upward surges of solution hitting the pad or entering the outlet pipe.
- a calm zone is established in the upper tank 42 at its downstream end and in front of the entrance to the outlet pipe 70.
- the calm zone 78 is designed to reduce the chance of absorbent in a turbulent state entering the outlet 70 and to increase the chance of only the more concentrated absorbent being supplied to the outlet.
- the calm zone comprises two substantially vertical baffle plates 80 and 82 extending across the upper tank 42.
- the taller first baffle plate 80 is spaced at 84 (see Figure 10) from the floor of the upper tank 42 and somewhat higher than the space 84 is the second baffle plate 82 acting as a weir.
- the second baffle plate 82 could be replaced by the provision of the outlet 70 being a suitable distance above the bottom 41 of the tank 42 as shown in Figure 10.
- the size of space 84 may be variable to adjust the concentration of absorbent delivered to outlet 70, by for example the use of pins to secure first baffle place 80 at one of a number of possible heights.
- a space is preferably provided at the top of the first baffle plate 80 to permit vapour to leave the calm zone. It is difficult to determine the level of fluid in the upper tank 42 because of the turbulence produced by continued delivery of solution through inlet 68, the boiling off of refrigerant vapour, the withdrawal of fluid through thermosyphon tubes 58A and 58B and the delivery of fluid by heat exchange tubes 38A and 38B.
- the calm zone 78 between plate 80 and outlet 70 presents a relatively calm surface from which the fluid level in the upper tank 42 can be determined.
- This fluid level may be determined by looking through a viewer in the side of the tank 42, such as a see through vertically extending panel made from glass or plastic, for example.
- one or more level sensors may be provided in the calm zone 78 to determine the fluid level in the tank 42.
- the pipe 56 may be lined with heat insulating material and may contain a further heat exchanger 86 exposed to the flue gases, this further heat exchanger acting as a regenerator/economiser/pre-heater.
- Heat exchanger 86 may be a tube in serpentine form or a plurality of serpentine forms disposed side by side and connected for liquid to flow through them in succession from one serpentine arrangement to the next, the vertical straight tube lengths in the or each serpentine form being in cross-flow relation with flue gases flow direction.
- An inlet to the heat exchanger 86 is indicated at 86A and an outlet at 86B.
- the further heat exchanger 86 be used to pre-heat the weak refrigerant/absorber solution delivered by the pump 30.
- the section of line 28 between points a and b in Figure 1 is omitted and the line 28 extended by a section 28A leading to the inlet 86A. From the outlet 86B another section of line 28B leads to the inlet tube 68.
- an H 2 O/LiBr solution and a 350kW burner 50 burning fuel gas, for example natural gas, provided with about 20% excess combustion air the following operational conditions may be obtained.
- the boiling temperature of the solution may be about 160°C
- the concentrated solution supplied to outlet 70 may be about 64% LiBr salt
- the velocity of the mixture entering the upper tank 42 from the heat exchange tubes 38 A, 38B may be about 1.5m/s.
- the temperature of the flue gases in the flue 56 may be about 210°C.
- Shown in Figure 12 is a variation in heat exchange tube wall temperature for the tubes in row 1 to the tubes in row 11 and how the cumulative efficiency of the generator may progressively (and relatively uniformly) increase along the array of heat exchange tubes from one row to next.
- the pressure within the upper tank 42 may substantially approach or be 0.5 barg.
- reference 88 indicates a union for mounting a pressure relief valve on the upper tank 42
- reference 90 indicates access tubes to receive liquid level sensors inserted into the calm zone of the upper tank
- reference 92 indicates a normally closed drain passage.
- Sight glasses enabling a view of the main interior of upper tank 42 and the calm zone 78 are indicated at 94 and 96 respectively.
- Temperature sensors may be provided in the lower and upper tanks 36, 42.
- a package burner 50 rated at 350kW has been referred to above.
- Package burners of different ratings may be used for example from a few kW to MW ratings.
- the burner comprises a fan or impeller 100 driven by an electric motor 102 to draw combustion air along a duct 104 in which the air pre-mixes with fuel gas from a gas supply line 106 before supply to the burner outlet orifice.
- An electrical control (not shown) comprises a motor control 108, a pressure switch 110 observing the output pressure of the air/fuel gaseous mixture from the impeller 100, a pressure switch 112 observing the pressure of the fuel gas supplied, solenoid controlled valves 114 and 116, and an air/fuel ratio controller 118 arranged to respond to signals representative of air pressure in the vicinity of an orifice plate 120 in the duct 104.
- a manual valve 121 has to be open before any fuel gas may be supplied. If the pressure of the supplied gas observed by the pressure switch 112 falls outside a pre-determined range the control may operate one or other of the solenoid valves 114, 116 to shut off gas supply to the burner. Should the pressure observed by the switch 110 fall outside a pre-determined range the control may operate to shut one or other of the valves 114, 116 and may also stop the motor 102.
- the control may be responsive to a demanded firing rate at the burner and thus operate the motor control 108 so that the impeller 100 speed is varied to supply combustion air in desired quantity.
- control 108 may be omitted and the impeller 100 driven at a constant speed, the amount of combustion air supplied being varied by operation of the throttle valve 122, in the duct 104, driven by a throttle motor 126 in accordance with signals thereto initiated by the control.
- some other means of generating hot gases to heat the heat exchange tubes 38 A, 38B may be used, for example hot exhaust gases from a gas turbine.
- thermo-syphon tube or tubes as the solution transfer means and/or by locating the thermo-syphon tube or tubes outside the hot gas flow path, there is no or at least little or a reduced heat transfer from the combustion gas to the tube or tubes promoting better thermo-syphon action.
- Weak solution can enter the top chamber and a lower volume of solution can be used.
- thermo-syphon tube or tubes By locating the thermo-syphon tube or tubes outside the hot gas flow path, there is greater freedom in the choice of the size, shape and position of the tube or tubes. By carefully selecting the appropriate design features a weak solution can be circulated/selected and its flow rate controlled. When the thermo-syphon tube or tubes are located outside the hot gas flow path it or they is/are easier to install in the generator, the tube or tubes can be used for flow level measurements and the overall weight of material can be reduced.
- the plates 80, 82 forming the calm zone 78 could be positioned anywhere in the top tank 42, for example at the front, on either side or any combination of positions.
