Air-cooled chillers are generally the major electricity consumers in air-conditioned buildings in the subtropical climate。 To improve the energy efficiency of the air-cooled chillers at part load conditions, two or more refrigeration circuits are designed。 This paper considers how the use of optimal circuit loading sequence (CLS) enables these chillers to operate more efficiently。 A thermodynamic model for the air-cooled chillers with twin refrigeration circuits was developed using TRNSYS and validated using a wide range of operating data。 Based on the sophisticated chiller model, an analysis was carried out on how the chiller COP varied with different CLS and variable condensing temperature control (CTC)。 A chiller plant designed for a representative office building in Hong Kong was investigated to assess the potential electricity savings by use of CLS。 4。2% of the annual electricity consumption by chillers could be achieved with optimal CLS compared with the base case。 Under CTC, the coefficient of performance (COP) was improved further, and CTC coupling with optimal CLS would reduce the annual total electricity consumption for cooling by 72607

1。 Introduction  介绍

Air-cooled chiller systems are commonly used in commercial buildings due to their flexibility, especially for the cities that have water shortage problem [1]。 Comparing to water-cooled chillers, air-cooled chillers are regarded as 

Energy inefficient。 The chiller efficiency decreases significantly under part load conditions。 To improve the chiller performance, many water chillers are designed with multiple refrigeration circuits connected by parallel, and each refrigeration circuit has one or more compressors。 This design of multiple refrigerant circuits is to enhance the reliability and standby capacity, decrease in-rush current at system start-up。 Such design also can reduce the power consumption at part load condition, and it gives an opportunity to improve the overall chiller performance。 As one of the circuits or both circuits in a chiller may be operated at any given conditions, the chiller performance will be different under different operating schemes。 This means that proper control strategy is critical, which is used to share the cooling load between the refrigeration circuits and sequence the compressors in each circuit。 For this reason, it is desirable to identify operating strategies on proper refrigeration circuit loading sequence (CLS) that improve the efficiency of the chiller with multiple refrigeration circuits。
