Absorption Chiller VS Mech. Chiller
Hi everybody,
I'm an Intern for process engineering and had never worked with refrigeration divisions before.
On my research for chillers I found this nice forum and thought I can ask you guys some questions about my problem...
The company I work for have right now an old (16 years) mechanical chiller ( Frick RWB2) . The chiller is working fine but the maintenance costs and operation costs are a litle bit high (100.000 $/year).
My questions is now is an absorption chiller way better than this unit we got right now? Would there be a lot of savings potential with a new absorption chiller?
The chiller is running 24/7 and we just need about 100ton/hr of refrigerant.
Steam with 150psig is at the plant side available.
Thx
Kind Regards
Leo
