Chillers are required at all plant-processing plants. Refrigeration can be obtained from energy industry facilities. Absorption chillers are the most reliable units for use in thermal power plant cycles. Such units usually work in conjunction with heating networks and cooling systems of steam turbine power units. For example, in a heated water cooling system after a steam turbine condenser, absorption chillers are already in use. At the same time, the authors of the article offer another application of such aggregates. Low-power steam turbines use air cooling and water-air heat exchangers. In this cooling system, an absorption chiller can be used to increase the efficiency of the thermal power plant. Such chillers are highly reliable, so they must work until the end of the payback period of new equipment.
