THERMAL CONVERTER UNIT Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: heat engineering, refrigerating engineering, absorption machines, thermal converter units. SUBSTANCE: thermal converter unit has two modules A and B with similar absorbers 1 and 2, evaporators 3 and 4, desorbers 5 and 6, condensers 7 and 8 and heat exchangers 9 and 10 arranged in individual housings 11 and 12. Absorbers 1 and 2 and evaporators 3 and 4 of modules A and B are arranged respectively above their desorbers 5 and 6 and condensers 7 and 8 with heat exchangers 9 and 10 arranged between them. Line 14 of high-potential medium being heated is brought to absorber 1; condensers of modules A and B are connected in series by line 13 of low-potential medium being cooled. Liquid absorbent line of evaporator 3 of module A is connected by means of line 16 with loop of heat exchange surface of absorber 2 of module B whose outlet is connected with absorber 1 of module A by means of line 17. Evaporators 3 and 4 and desorbers 5 and 6 of modules A and B are connected in series by means of line 15 on the medium being cooled. EFFECT: enhanced reliability. 1 dwg
