The basic apparatus of the invention is a triple effect absorption cycle apparatus, comprising first, second and third gen- erators (G1, G2, G3) each containing an aqueous absorption fluid and operati ng at successively higher temperatures; first, sec- ond and third condensers (C1, C2, C3) operating at successively higher temperatures, and operatively communicating with the generators (G1, G2; G3); first heat exchange means cooperating between the third and second generators, and between the sec- ond condenser and first generator; for directing energy therebetween; one, t wo or three absorbers (A1, A2, A3) and one, two or three fluid loops for directing aqueous absorption fluid between absorbers a nd second heat exchange means for exchanging ener- gy between aqueous absorption fluid flows in said loops; and one, two or thr ee evaporators (E1, E2, E3), operatively communi- cating with the absorbers. The invention includes preferred aqueous absorpti on fluids, a heat and mass transfer additive in the ab- sorption fluid, means for separating the additive before the fluid reaches t he high temperature generator, a heat and mass transfer reservoir, and a number of different absorption fluid loop options for routi ng the fluid between the absorber(s) (A1, A2, A3) and the three generators (G1, G2, G3). |
