Abstract
In this proposed integrated power and cooling plant, water/steam is the working fluid and it offers a cost-effective solution compared to aqua-ammonia- based plant. In only cooling system, i.e., without steam turbine, a more amount of heat (sensible heat of vapor and latent heat) is rejected at the condenser. So, this integration minimizes the condenser load by limiting to latent heat rejection only. The plant results 70 kW of power and 433 kW of cooling at the optimized conditions of strong solution (1 kg/s and 0.48 concentrations) and the supply temperature of 250 °C.
