• What is chiller ?

chiller is a machine that removes heat from a liquid via a

vapor-compressionor absorption refrigeration cycle.
This liquid can then be circulated through a heat exchange
r to cool air or equipment as required.
•What is water chiller ?

A water chiller is an industrial water refrigeration apparatus that

produces cold water to cool industrial process equipment.
A water chiller is a complete system filled with
refrigeration equipment, including a condenser, refrigerant, pipes,
coolant expansion reservoir, pumps, and so on.
Water is cooled to temperatures around 20°C (68°F)
and pumped through a hydraulic circuit to reach the process equipment.
How absorption technology works

Absorption chillers' thermodynamic cycle are driven by heat source;

this heat is usually delivered to the chiller via steam, hot water,
or combustion.
Compared to electrically powered chillers, they have very low electrical
requirements - very rarely above 15 kW combined consumption for both
pump and the refrigerant pump.
However, their heat input requirements are large, and their
COPs are often 0.5 (single-effect) to 1.0 (double-effect).
Absorption Chiller Refrigeration Cycle

The basic cooling cycle is the same for the absorption

and electric chillers. Both systems use a low-
temperature liquid refrigerant that absorbs heat from
the water to be cooled and converts to a vapor phase
(in the evaporator section). The refrigerant vapors are
then compressed to a higher pressure (by a
compressor or a generator), converted back into a
liquid by rejecting heat to the external surroundings
(in the condenser section), and then expanded to a
low-
Desiccant Dehumidification Cycle for Solid Desiccants
A typical approach to using solid desiccants for dehumidifying air strea
s by impregnating them into a light-weight honeycomb or corrugated m
that is formed into a wheel. The desiccant-coated wheel is rotated thr
"supply" or "process" air stream. The "active" section of the wheel re
moisture from the air and the dried air is routed to the building. By dry
provided to a chiller, air-conditioning efficiencies are increased becaus
removes the moisture from the air more efficiently than a chiller or a d
(DX) evaporator does.
