Proposal and analysis of a high-efficiency combined desalination and refrigeration system based on the LiBr–H2O absorption cycle—Part 1: System configuration and mathematical model
نویسندگان
چکیده
Simultaneous production of fresh water and refrigeration are often required, e.g. in warm-climate waterdeficient regions, and this study is a proposal and analysis of an efficient way of producing both of them by consuming mainly low-grade heat. After introducing the configuration choice methodology, a combined refrigeration and water system, ARHP–MEE (absorption refrigeration heat pump and multi-effect evaporation desalter), which is the integration of a LiBr–H2O refrigeration unit, a LiBr–H2O heat pump, and a low-temperature multi-effect evaporation desalination unit, is proposed, and the mathematical model is presented and validated. The model serves for conducting a performance analysis of the combined system, reported in Part 2 of this two-part paper. 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A refrigeration cycle is a chain of various pieces of equipment including compressors, condensers, evaporators, and expansion devices each of which takes on a particular thermodynamic process duty in the cycle that eventually results in the production of the required refrigeration. The results of optimized mixed refrigerant cycles (MRCs) in Part I show that the configuration of MRC is an eff...

The current work investigates the exergy analysis of a new system to generate power, heat, and refrigeration. In the proposed system, the heat loss of a gas turbine (GT) is first recovered by a Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSD), then by an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) to generate warm water and additional power, respectively. In the ORC, reheating is used to increase the output power, the req...
