[BLDG-SIM] Solar Absorption Chiller

[Graham & Megan]

Ask the suppliers.  If they can't back it up then do you really want to use their products?  In Australia we have come across two suppliers Energy Conservation Systems (ECS) who can provide a tracking parabolic collctor system linked to BROAD absorption chillers and Conergy who at the time had a high effciiency flat plate collector system.  The collection potential will vary significantly depending on collector type.
Regards,
Graham

  Hello All,

  A project is considering solar absorption chillers system for its cooling and heating sources.

  QUESTION:

  For simulating solar absorption chiller in eQUEST, it was recommended to model it with gas absorption chillers and track the hours that it is heating during the day. Solar contribution must be calculated by "hand" as it cannot be done in DOE-2. Subsequently, savings from solar is estimating by taking into account local weather conditions.

  Can someone elaborate the detail method of this calculation by hand?

  Any information you can share is greatly appreciated.

   

  Sincerely
