This invention discloses a multi-stage subcooled
ammonia absorption-compression composite
refrigeration system and method driven by compressor exhaust
waste heat. The
system includes an absorber, a preheater, a first-stage precooler, a generator, a
distillation unit, and a second-stage precooler.
Ammonia heat exchange occurs in the preheater's inlet and return liquid paths;
ammonia and
liquid ammonia exchange in the first-stage precooler; and
ammonia and a
mixed gas exchange in the generator. The absorber outlet is sequentially connected to the preheater inlet, the first-stage precooler ammonia path, the generator ammonia path, the preheater return liquid path, and the absorber inlet. The generator outlet is sequentially connected to the compressor, the generator
mixed gas path, and the
mixed gas inlet. The
liquid ammonia outlet is sequentially connected to the first-stage precooler
liquid ammonia path, the second-stage precooler inlet, the
evaporator, the second-stage precooler return liquid path, and the absorber inlet. This solution uses high-temperature exhaust
waste heat and external
waste heat as the driving force for
refrigeration, achieving maximum energy utilization through waste heat
recovery and
refrigeration cycle.
