Air Conditioning Basics: Primary Energy Conversion

The COP of absorption chillers is calculated from primary energy! Comparing the efficiency of chillers under the same conditions.

When comparing the COP of absorption chillers and turbo chillers, the COP of turbo chillers listed in catalogs is around 6, which is high, but this value is calculated based on the power consumption of secondary energy. On the other hand, the COP of absorption chillers is calculated from primary energy, and to compare the efficiency of chillers under the same conditions, a primary energy conversion is performed. This article provides a detailed explanation of primary energy conversion.
