[TRNSYS-users] Type 107 Absorption Chiller in Solar Cooling Model

["#GOH KIM LAI DENNIS#" <Z060113@ntu.edu.sg>]

Dear TRNSYS users,

 

I'm wanting to simulate a Type 107 absorption chiller.

I am wondering if the example external datafile provided in C:\Program Files\Trnsys16_1\Examples\Data Files\Type107-HotWaterFiredAbsorptionChiller.dat can support the parameters I used.

 

Parameters used:

Rated Capacity: 90000kJ/hr or 25kW

Rated COP: 0.7

m chilled water: 100kg/hr

Tchw,in: 12.22C

Tchw,out: 6.667C

ffullcapacity: 1.0

Thw,in: 84.0C

 

From the Mathematical Reference, I calculated the following values:

Qremove = 2326.707kJ/hr

fdesign load = 0.025

fnominalcapacity = 0.7898

Capacity = 69444kJ/hr or 19.3kW

fdesignenergyinput = 0.03108

Qhotwater = 3996kJ/hr

Thw,out = 83.04C

 

Is the example datafile suitable for my model Type 107?

Does anyone have a datafile that simulates absorption chillers in the range of 20-30kW?

Or how can I edit a datafile to suit an absorption chiller of 30kW?

 

Thanks in advance!
