    摘要: This refrigerating machine is equipped with: a turbocompressor which compresses a refrigerant; a condenser which is equipped with one or more pipe groups configured from a plurality of heat transfer pipes through which cooling water flows, and condenses the refrigerant compressed by the turbocompressor; an expansion valve which causes the refrigerant condensed by the condenser to expand; an evaporator which causes the refrigerant expanded by the expansion valve to evaporate; a temperature sensor which detects cooling water exit temperature, which is the temperature of the cooling water flowing from at least one of the heat transfer pipes constituting the pipe group(s); and a control unit which determines, on the basis of the detection temperature of the temperature sensor, air bleeding start conditions for starting an air bleeding operation to bleed and discharge air to the outside.

    摘要: The purpose of the present invention is to install an economizer having a sufficient internal volume in a compact turbo refrigeration apparatus specifically using a low-pressure refrigerant, and reduce refrigerant pressure loss and enhance efficiency in the turbo refrigeration apparatus. The turbo refrigeration apparatus according to the present invention comprises: a turbo compressor which compresses a refrigerant; a condenser which condenses the compressed refrigerant; a control valve which causes the condensed refrigerant to expand; an evaporator which causes the expanded refrigerant to evaporate; and an economizer which is installed in such a manner as to be sandwiched between the condenser and the evaporator, and separates the refrigerant expanded by the control valve into gas and liquid. The economizer is installed adjacent to a curved wall, having a drum shell shape, of the condenser and/or the evaporator, the curved wall being shared with the structural wall of the economizer. The economizer has a height (H) greater than the maximum width (W) thereof when viewed in the longitudinal direction thereof.

    摘要: A turbo chiller that has an oil-free configuration, which reduces the frequency of maintenance and maintenance-induced release of refrigerant, and can achieve a reduced environmental impact by utilizing the characteristics of the low-pressure refrigerant R1233zd(E) that reaches negative pressure at a saturation temperature of 18° C. or lower. The turbo chiller comprises a refrigeration cycle that includes a turbo compressor, a condenser, a decompression device, and an evaporator connected in sequence via piping and is filled with a refrigerant; wherein the refrigerant is a low-pressure refrigerant R1233zd(E) refrigerant with low global warming potential and low ozone depletion potential; the turbo compressor has a direct drive configuration in which a rotating shaft of impellers is directly joined to a motor; and the rotating shaft is supported by magnetic bearings.
