    Lithium Bromide Absorption Heat Pump

    Lithium bromide absorption heat pumps, which operate based on the same principles as absorption chillers, have recently gained attention as an effective solution for large-scale heat recovery projects—particularly in upgrading low-grade waste heat into usable thermal energy. These systems are especially advantageous in industrial applications where maximizing energy efficiency is critical.

    Absorption heat pumps are typically classified into two types:


    Type I – Heat Booster (Heat Addition): Driving heat temperature > Output heat temperature
    (Heat quantity increase / Waste heat upgrading)

    Also known as a heat-boosting absorption heat pump, this system primarily utilizes a high-temperature heat source (such as steam) to drive the cycle, transforming low-temperature waste heat into a large amount of usable medium-temperature heat.



    Uses a small amount of high-grade thermal energy (e.g., steam below 8 barg)


    Elevates low-grade waste heat (around 50–70 °C) to a useful range (70–110 °C)


    Ideal for large-scale industrial heating or district heating networks



    Heat balance example:
    100% high-temperature driving heat + 80% low-temperature waste heat
    → yields approximately 180% useful medium-temperature heat output

    Primary benefits:



    Significantly reduces steam consumption for heating


    Additional benefit: lowers cooling water temperature





    Type II – Temperature Lifting (Exergy Upgrade): Driving heat temperature < Output heat temperature
    (Temperature lift / Waste heat utilization)

    Also known as a temperature-lifting absorption heat pump, this system utilizes medium-temperature waste heat and upgrades its thermal quality, allowing for reuse at higher temperature levels.



    Uses medium-temperature waste heat (80–100 °C) as the driving source


    Releases part of the heat to the environment via cooling water


    Delivers the remainder as higher-temperature output heat



    Two-stage operation examples:



    Stage 1 Output Temperature: approx. 110–150 °C


    Stage 2 Output Temperature: up to approx. 170 °C



    Heat balance:



    Stage 1: 100% input – 50% lost to cooling = 50% high-temp useful heat


    Stage 2: 100% input – 70% lost = 30% high-temp useful heat



    Common applications:
    Widely used in chemical plants for top-column heat recovery in distillation systems. It can replace traditional top condensers while simultaneously supplying steam for other processes.

    Lithium Bromide Absorption Chiller

    Main Heat Exchange Components of an Absorption Chiller:

    Evaporator
    Condenser
    Generator
    Absorber

    Refrigerant (Water) Cycle:
    Water vapor and concentrated lithium bromide solution are separated in the generator → Vapor condenses into water in the condenser → Throttled to the evaporator for cooling → Absorbed by lithium bromide in the absorber to form a diluted solution → Returned to the generator.

    Lithium Bromide Circulation (Replaces Compressor Function):
    Concentrated solution from the generator → Pressure reduced via throttling → Absorbs water vapor in the absorber to form a diluted solution → Pumped back to the generator after pressurization.

    Advantages:


    Simple structure with minimal mechanical components for stable, low-vibration operation.
    Easy operation with wide cooling capacity modulation from 10% to 100%.
    Compatible with low-grade heat sources such as waste heat, hot water, or steam.
    Driven by thermal energy; power consumption is only 5% of equivalent electric chillers.
    High cooling efficiency under stable heat supply and suitable for automation.


    Limitations:


    Lithium bromide solution is corrosive to carbon steel; regular maintenance is required.
    Operates under vacuum; requires excellent sealing. Air leakage may lead to performance degradation.
    High cooling water demand.

    Main Models:


    Single-effect hot water type: 30 RT to 3000 RT (also available in two-stage configuration)
    Single-effect / Double-effect steam type: 50 RT to 1500 RT
    Double-effect flue gas type: 100 RT to 1500 RT

    Fin Tube Heat Exchanger

    Finned tube heat exchangers have a structure similar to conventional shell-and-tube heat exchangers. However, instead of smooth tubes, finned tubes are used as the heat transfer surface. Due to enhanced heat transfer and compact structure, they are also known as compact heat exchangers. The primary purpose of adding fins is to increase the heat exchange surface area and promote heat exchange efficiency.

    To increase the heating surface area, it can be achieved by increasing either the outer or inner surface. The additional area is referred to as the Secondary Area. Currently, there are various types of finned tubes used in the industry, with designs primarily focusing on external fins. External fins can be classified into several types: low finned tubes, high finned tubes, and continuous finned tubes. Selection of finned tubes depends on different operating conditions, and there are numerous options for the combination of fins and smooth tubes. Optimal selection can be made based on factors such as the type of fluid, operating temperature, and corrosiveness.

    Taiwan Heat Transfer can provide various types of finned tube heat exchangers according to your specific requirements!

    Power Plant Heat Exchangers and Deaerators

         Regardless of whether it's a nuclear power plant, thermal power plant, cogeneration plant, etc., as long as it utilizes a steam turbine for power generation, although the heat sources may vary, the principle of power generation remains the same. It involves utilizing a steam turbine for power generation, with the thermal cycle referred to as the steam power cycle or Rankine Cycle.

    In the Rankine cycle of steam, feed water absorbs heat in the boiler (or steam generator) to produce steam, which is then sent through pipes to the turbine to expand and perform work, driving the generator for electricity generation. After performing work, the low-pressure exhausted steam is sent to the condenser for cooling, where it condenses into liquid form. It is then pumped back to the boiler through feed water pumps, passing through either high-pressure or low-pressure feed water heaters for reheating and through deaerators for thermal deaeration, thus forming a closed cycle.

    Our Scope of Supply

    Our company specializes in the design and manufacturing of a wide range of auxiliary heat exchange equipment used in power generation systems (excluding boilers), including:


         Surface Condensers
         Feedwater Heaters (Low-Pressure & High-Pressure)
         Deaerators
         Air Preheaters
         Gland Steam Condensers
         Air Ejectors




    Condenser:
       In the steam power cycle, the condenser primarily functions to:
       1. Release heat at the cold end and recover condensed exhausted steam to feed water.
       2. Remove non-condensable gases and dissolved oxygen from water to prevent system corrosion.
       3. Lower back pressure, maintain vacuum, increase turbine effective enthalpy drop, thereby enhancing cycle efficiency.

    Condensers are classified into water-cooled (Surface Condenser) and air-cooled (Air Cooled Condenser), both of which our company can provide.

    Vacuum level of the condenser is one of the main performance indicators. Our company can also provide vacuum equipment for the condenser, such as Air Ejectors and water ring vacuum pumps.


    Feed Water Heater:
    Feed Water Heater (FWH), its function is to heat feed water (boiler water) using extracted steam from the turbine, thus increasing the overall cycle efficiency, also known as regenerative heating. Feed water heaters include high-pressure heaters (HP) and low-pressure heaters (LP). Generally, the low-pressure heater (with lower tube-side pressure) is located between the condenser and deaerator, while the high-pressure heater (with higher tube-side pressure) is located after the feed water pump.

    The advantages of using feed water heaters in power plants are as follows:

    1. Improved thermal efficiency: Utilizing extracted steam for feed water heating reduces steam flow to the condenser, minimizing heat sink losses, thus enhancing cycle thermal efficiency.

     2. For boilers, the increased feed water temperature reduces the boiler heat load, leading to a decrease in furnace heat exchange area, thereby saving energy and steel usage.

     3. By having intermediate extraction steam, the steam flow to the last stages of the turbine is reduced, which in turn reduces the flow area of the last-stage turbine blades, addressing challenges in the design and manufacturing of turbine last-stage blades.

      4. With reduced steam flow into the condenser, the heat load of the condenser decreases, reducing heat exchange area, thus saving investment costs and minimizing heat discharge to the environment.


    Deaerator:
    The deaerator is designed to remove dissolved oxygen from boiler feed water to protect the boiler from oxygen corrosion. Thermal deaeration is one of the primary methods for preventing corrosion in power plant boilers or industrial boilers.

    In a deaerator, thermal deaeration is primarily used because the amount of gas dissolved in water is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the gas above the water surface (Henry's law). The principle is to use steam to heat feed water, increasing the water temperature and gradually increasing the partial pressure of steam above the water surface, while the partial pressure of dissolved gases gradually decreases.

    As a result, gases dissolved in water continuously escape. When water is heated to the boiling temperature corresponding to the respective pressure, the water surface is entirely covered with water vapor, and the partial pressure of dissolved gases is zero. At this point, water no longer has the ability to dissolve gases, including oxygen. The effectiveness of deaeration depends on whether the feed water is heated to the boiling temperature corresponding to the respective pressure and the rate of gas removal, which is closely related to the contact surface area between water and steam.

    Air Cooled Condenser (ACC)

    The Air Cooled Condenser (ACC) is a critical component in power generation cycles. In the steam power cycle, the ACC serves as a cooling source. The heat from turbine exhaust steam is transferred to the ambient air through the ACC, resulting in condensation and negative pressure, thereby facilitating a continuous flow of fresh steam into the turbine. The relationship between negative pressure and turbine efficiency is significant, thus the efficiency of the ACC directly impacts overall power generation.

    Advantages of air cooling include:
        1. Easy access to air.

        2. Air-cooled systems are easy to design, operate, and maintain, offering high reliability.

        3. Unlike water, which is corrosive, air does not corrode equipment, leading to lower cleaning and maintenance costs compared to water-cooled systems.

        4. Maintenance costs for air-cooled systems are only 20% to 30% of those for water-cooled systems.
    Although air cooling requires fan power consumption, water-cooled systems also consume significant power for water circulation pumps and incur expensive water treatment costs, resulting in higher operating expenses.

    Through collaboration with Shuangliang Group, we provide customers with the highest quality ACC products globally.
    Our technical features include three major testing devices to ensure comprehensive performance testing before product delivery:
         
        1. Bundle Performance Test Device—acquires actual finned tube heat transfer coefficients to optimize heat transfer performance.
         
        2. Industry-exclusive large-scale dynamic air-cooled test system—installed within Shuangliang's factory, simulating a 1000MW unit ACC to compare test performance with actual units.

        3. Industry-exclusive air-cooled laboratory (-25 ℃ to 40 ℃) and environmental test equipment—tests actual heat transfer performance at various temperatures.

    Nine testing and research studies thoroughly analyzing heat transfer performance within the bundle throughout its lifespan:
        1. Bundle heat transfer performance testing and research.
        2. Bundle air-side resistance characteristic testing and research.
        3. Bundle steam-side resistance characteristic testing and research.
        4. Aluminum fin atmospheric corrosion performance testing and research.
