Absorption refrigerator

Abstract

An absorption refrigerator includes an evaporator having an evaporating heat exchanger pipe operable to evaporate refrigerant on an outer surface thereof so as to cool liquid to be cooled running in the pipe, an absorber containing absorbent liquid for absorbing the refrigerant evaporated at the evaporator, a regenerator for heating and concentrating the absorbent liquid supplied from the absorber by using heat source fluid and then supplying the concentrated absorbent liquid to the absorber, a condenser for condensing steam or vapor of refrigerant supplied from the regenerator and supplying the condensed refrigerant to the evaporator and an evaporator for evaporating the condensed water condensed at the condenser. The absorption refrigerator further includes absorbent liquid supplying means for supplying the absorbent liquid to the refrigerant present at the evaporator and refrigerant discharging means for discharging the refrigerant present at the evaporator to the regenerator.
