SPECIALLY DESIGNED LOW PRESSURE RATIO CENTRIFUGAL CHILLER

Intelligent energy ● The design pressure ratio is relatively low, in order to get a good specific speed, a lower design speed is adopted, so that
higher aerodynamic efficiency can be obtained in this range.
● System control logic is different from ordinary
air conditioning system ● IGV, impeller, diffuser, volute and other aerodynamic components are with new aerodynamic design, which can better
● High energy consumption, high requirement adapt to the change of gas inlet volume flow, so that the gas flows into the impeller at an appropriate angle, reduces the
for intelligentization impact loss of the impeller.

Process requirements
● Electronic components are sensitive to temperature,
humidity, and cleanliness, so these factors need to
be under strict control

● Considering the overall use of users, the working conditions with the largest proportion of use are in the highest efficiency
range to ensure good energy saving effect.
Airflow organization ● Two-stage compression, surge margin is larger. Low-pressure head can prevent surge by preventing the speed from being
● Large air flow, small enthalpy difference too low. Under the condition of high pressure head, the speed of the impeller is actively increased and adjusted with guide
vane to achieve stable operation and expand the operating range of compressor. Adopt new surge current identification
● CFD simulation to prevent too cold/hot locally
technology, real-time detection of current waveform, accurate identification of surge risk, to achieve equipment protection.
