Abstract

A combined thermal power and cooling cycle is proposed. The proposed cycle combines a Rankine cycle and an absorption refrigeration cycle. It can provide power output as well as refrigeration with power generation as a primary goal. The new cycle uses very high concentration ammonia vapor in the turbine which can be expanded to a very low temperature in the turbine without condensation. This cycle uses an absorption condensation process instead of the conventional condensation process. A parametric analysis of the proposed cycle is presented in this paper.
