Abstract
This article presents a thermodynamic framework for a lithium bromide – water absorption chiller, in which a transient model is developed to simulate the operation process. Local energy and mass balance within the main components like absorber, regenerator, condenser, evaporator and solution heat exchanger is respected to investigate the behavior of the chiller. Experimental correlations are used to predict heat transfer of the related working fluids. The cooling water is set to typical cooling tower conditions of tropical countries such as Singapore. The coefficient of performance (COP) is evaluated against a range of heat source temperatures from 75oC to 100oC. The results indicate the operation conditions of the chiller at its maximum COP is 95oC to 100oC.
