HVAC - Chilling Systems ...t rejection process. The difference is that mechanical chillers use reciprocating, centrifugal or screw compressors that are powered by electric motors whereas the absorption cycle uses heat (usually steam or direct fire) to raise the refrigerant temperature. Mechanical chillers are most commonly used in residential and commercial buildings, whereas absorption systems are often an excellent  more...

HVAC Chilled Water Distribution Schemes ...ary systems provided a stable and simple operation of the chillers and distribution systems. However, as energy costs increased, particularly in the late 1970s, the efficiency of the chillers and the costs associated with operating the distribution system became more important. As a result, the need for new schemes to improve chiller performance and reduce energy costs drove the HVAC industry  more...
