<strong>IEA</strong> SHC Task 38 <strong>Solar</strong> Air Conditioning <strong>and</strong> Refriger<strong>at</strong>ion Subtask C2-A, November 9, 2009<br />

existing in reality have not been incorpor<strong>at</strong>ed into the model. These include the forced<br />

circul<strong>at</strong>ion of refrigerant in the evapor<strong>at</strong>or by means of a second internal pump. Also, the<br />

condensed refrigerant flowing from condenser to evapor<strong>at</strong>or has a time delay which has<br />

been neglected. There is no vapour storage in the vessels assumed. The transport delay c 1<br />

has been assumed constant although it changes in proportion to the strong solution mass<br />

flow. The transport delay in the cooling w<strong>at</strong>er between absorber outlet <strong>and</strong> condenser inlet<br />

due to piping length has also been neglected as well as the change in solution storage on the<br />

tube bundles. These time delays have not been included in order to keep the model as<br />

simple as possible.<br />

The results in Figure 5 are shown here just in order to demonstr<strong>at</strong>e the basic functionality of<br />

the model. A sensitivity analysis along with more experimental d<strong>at</strong>a is presented in the<br />

second part of this paper [7].<br />

Conclusions<br />

In this paper a dynamic model for absorption chillers has been presented. It is based on<br />

internal energy balances as well as mass balances. Dynamic behaviour is implemented via<br />

eight thermal <strong>and</strong> two mass storage terms as well as by two delay times. The he<strong>at</strong> transfer<br />

has been divided into two parts: one which transfers he<strong>at</strong> from the external he<strong>at</strong> carrier to the<br />

exchanger m<strong>at</strong>erial <strong>and</strong> the second from there on to the refrigerant or solution side, or vice<br />

versa. In this way the thermal mass of the vessel could be introduced easily. The agreement<br />

between experiment <strong>and</strong> simul<strong>at</strong>ion is very good with devi<strong>at</strong>ions of 10s for the gener<strong>at</strong>or. The<br />

total time to achieve a new steady-st<strong>at</strong>e after an input temper<strong>at</strong>ure step amounts to<br />

approxim<strong>at</strong>ely 15 minutes. Compared to this, the present dynamic devi<strong>at</strong>ions are in the<br />

magnitude of approxim<strong>at</strong>ely 1%.<br />

More inform<strong>at</strong>ion about the simul<strong>at</strong>ion results, comparison with experiments <strong>and</strong> sensitivity<br />

checks will be presented in the second part of this paper [7].<br />
