    摘要: 975,787. Refrigeration. TRANE CO. Feb. 6, 1962 [Feb. 9, 1961], No. 4511/62. Heading F4H. In an absorption refrigerating system, the flow of heating medium to the generator 14 and the flow of dilute solution from the absorber 18 to the generator are both controlled in response solely to the temperature of chilled fluid leaving the evaporator 16. In the system shown, which employs lithium bromide solution as the absorbent and water as the refrigerant, this temperature is detected by a thermostat 66 connected to pneumatic controller 64 which, via solenoid-operated start-control valve SAV, controls normally open valve 58 in the steam supply line for generator heating coil 56 and normally closed valve 151, or a normally open valve 156, Fig. 3, in the solution circulating system. A strong solution, i.e. one concentrated in absorbent, is recirculated through pump 40 and sprays 44 while a less-concentrated solution is passed through pump 46, conduit 50 and heat exchanger 52 to the generator, concentrated solution being returned to the absorber via conduit 59, the other pass of the heat exchanger and conduits 60, 61. In operation, if the refrigeration load is reduced, the thermostat 66 will cause valve 58 to close to reduce the heat supplied to the generator and valve 151 to open to reduce the rate of flow of solution from the absorber to the generator by allowing some solution to be by-passed direct from conduit 50 to return conduit 60; in the alternative shown in Fig. 3, valve 156 is caused to close so as to restrict the flow of solution to the generator. The system includes also a refrigerant recirculating pump 80, a proportion of refrigerant being used to cool the pumps 40, 46 and 80 through lines such as 88, and a pump 22 for circulating cooling water through coils 20 and 26 in the absorber 18 and condenser 12. The proportion of water flowing through coil 26 is determined by a condenser-temperature-responsive valve 28, and the water is cooled in a tower 32, the proportion of water passing through the tower being determined by a valve 34 controlled by a thermostat 37. If the temperature of the chilled water in line 65 drops below a predetermined value, a pressure switch 73 is actuated to stop the system. The electric control circuit (Fig. 2, not shown) is such that the refrigerant recirculating pump 80 and solution pump 46 continue to operate for a short period; the pump 46 circulates dilute solution to the generator and, via line 98, to the circuit of pump 40, thus flushing out the conduits and preventing solidification when the system cools down. The system includes also a low-temperature cut-out 96 actuated if the temperature in the evaporator should become abnormally low, and a float switch 77, in chamber 76 connected to the evaporator, actuated if the refrigerant level becomes excessively low.
