Improved effectiveness and dependability in combined heat and power systems (CHP), as well as in commercial cooling and industrial process applications.
The YORK® YHAU-CW Double-effect, Steam-fired Absorption Chillers are engineered for superior efficiency, with a capacity range spanning from 120 to 4,000 TR. These units utilize an innovative two-step evaporator and absorber cycle, coupled with a parallel flow system, to boost efficiency and mitigate corrosion risks.
Due to its double-effect design and versatile operating capabilities, it can accommodate a wide range of steam pressures. Additionally, our world-class engineering and service ensure hassle-free chiller operation throughout its lifespan.
Designed to boost efficiency, the YHAU-CW Double-effect Chiller features an innovative two-step design.
Suitable for a variety of steam pressures found in CHP systems, and commercial cooling and industrial process applications.
Our world-class engineering and service teams simplify the operating cycle and reduce ownership costs.
YORK® YHAU-CW Chillers use a unique two-step evaporator design with dual pressure levels, enhancing the absorption process. Chilled water circulates through both evaporators, while concentrated lithium bromide solution is distilled in the absorber shell, reducing overall pressure.
This innovative approach lowers the solution concentration and overall pressure, resulting in enhanced efficiency and reliability compared to conventional absorption chillers.
The parallel flow cycle splits the solution flow into two parallel, well-balanced paths for both the low- and high-temperature generators. By combining our two-step and parallel flow design, the unit operates more safely and efficiently at significantly reduced pressure compared to traditional series-flow designs.
This innovative approach results in a lower LiBr concentration, enabling the use of a lower-grade driving heat source and achieving a high coefficient of performance (COP).
