Abstract
The absorber has four concentric helical conduits in a housing. A dummy tube is arranged in the housing. The weak coolant solution is conducted in four partial flows through four supply lines to the helical conduits. The profiles of the tube of the helical conduits are of flat oval construction. To ensure that the weak solution is uniformly distributed, on the other hand the individual coils of the helical conduits form a gap in which the solution collects, is conducted downward and redistributed. The heat generated in the absorber is dissipated by a liquid in a secondary system which flows inside the helical conduits.
Claims12
An absorber for a diffusion absorption plant consisting of at least one tube coil extending helically about a vertical axis in a cylindrical housing, the outer surface of said tube coil being capillary active, wherein vertically consecutive windings of said tube coil are spaced apart such that a helical gap containing accumulated refrigerant solution is formed between said consecutive windings.
An absorber for a diffusion absorption plant consisting of at least one tube coil located in a cylindrical housing, the surface of said tube coil is capillary active, whereby individual windings of the tube coil are at a distance from each other and whereby a dummy tube is coaxially arranged inside said housing.
