|
Integration methodology |
|
|
Crucial Interfaces |
* abso chiller working is close to nominal conditions given by the manufacturer (COP = 0,68)
* collector efficiency is in accordance with the one from the manufacturer and permits to fulfil
system needs
* energy taken from primary loop compared to irradiation is in nominal conditions nearly of 70%
* gap due to collector inertia is noted at the begining of a cooling cycle
|
|
Construction / Commissioning |
|
|
Operation / Performance |
lot of failure at the begining due to inadequate thermic fluid
replace by water, now everything seems to be OK
