The adaptive refrigerant storage unit developed by Hope Deepblue ensures stable and efficient operation of LiBr absorption chiller during load fluctuations through intelligent control and automated adjustments. By precisely managing the storage and supply of refrigerant water, the system enhances overall operational efficiency, optimizes resource utilization, and reduces unnecessary energy waste.

Equipped with built-in sensors and monitoring systems, the adaptive storage unit tracks refrigerant water storage levels, flow rates, and chiller or heat pump load in real time. When load changes occur, the system automatically detects and adjusts the refrigerant water supply. For example, during increased load, the system recovers more LiBr solution vapor or refrigerant water to ensure adequate supply. Conversely, when the load decreases, it reduces refrigerant water output to avoid over-supply or wastage. This automated process operates without manual intervention, maintaining optimal system performance at all times.

By intelligently regulating refrigerant flow, the system optimizes the chiller’s energy efficiency. Under low-load conditions, it minimizes refrigerant water flow to prevent energy waste, while during high-load conditions, it ensures sufficient refrigerant water supply to maintain effective cooling. This adjustment not only shortens startup and shutdown time substantially, reduce idle work, but also enhances the overall efficiency of the chiller significantly reducing energy consumption and operating costs.

Moreover, the adaptive storage unit effectively prevents equipment overload through precise flow control. Excessive refrigerant water could lead to excessive system pressure, overheating, or pump damage, while insufficient refrigerant water might compromise cooling/heating performance or even trigger system overload. By flexibly adjusting the refrigerant water supply, the system avoids these extremes, safeguarding the equipment and extending the units service life.
