UNIT FEATURES

Compressor Assembly The Dunham-Bush rotary screw compressor is a positive displacement helical-axial design for use with high-pressure refrigerants.

The compressor consists of two intermeshing helical grooved rotors, a female drive rotor and a male driven rotor, in a stationary housing with suction and discharge gas ports.

Uniform gas flow, even torque and positive displacement, all provided by pure rotary motion contributes to vibration-free operation over a wide range of operating conditions. Intake and discharge cycles overlap, effectively producing a smooth, continuous flow of gas.

No oil pump is required for lubrication or sealing purposes. Oil is distributed throughout the compressor by the pressure differetial between the suction and the discharge cavities.

Simplified Capacity Control The slide valve mechanism for capacity modulation and part load operation is an outstanding feature:

The moving parts are simple, rugged and trouble-free. The slide mechanism is hydraulically actuated.

Package capacity reduction can be down to as low as 8.5% without HGBP by progressive movement of slide valves away from their stops.

Capacity reduction is programmed by an exclusive electronically initiated, hydraulically actuated control arrangement.

Positive Displacement Direct Connected The compressor is directly connected to the motor without any complicated gear systems to speed up the

compressor and thus detract from the overall unit reliability.

Oil Separation Each compressor is provided with up to 2 integral oil separator/impingement plate located below the discharge gas port.

The separator is a multi-layered mesh element which effectively separates oil from the gas stream.

The oil drains into the sump and the discharge gas passes around the deflection plate. An oil drain valve is located near the bottom of the oil sump.

Oil is also returned to the compressor after it is separated from the refrigerant at the oil separator located at the discharge of the compressor.

Main Bearings Each rotor is fitted with a set of anti-friction tapered roller bearings. They carry both radial and thrust loads. Anti-reverse rotation bearings are used.

Rotors The latest asymmetrical rotor profiles of patented Dunham-Bush design assure operation at highest efficiencies. Rotors are precision machined from high strength alloy steel and precision ground, in house.

Castings All housings are manufactured of high grade, low porosity and cast iron.

Solid State Motor Protection The motor winding protection module used in conjunction with sensors embedded in the compressor motor windings is designed to prevent the motor from operating at unsafe operating temperatures. The overloads for the motor are also solid state.

UNIT FEATURES

Compressor Operation Note: For clarity reasons, the following account of the compressor operation will be limited to one lobe on the male rotor and one interlobe space of the female rotor. In actual operation, as the rotors revolve, all of the male lobes and female interlobe spaces interact similarly with resulting uniform, non-pulsating gas flow.

Suction Phase As a lobe of the male rotor begins to unmesh from an interlobe space in the female rotor, a void is created and gas is drawn in tangentially through the inlet port -- Fig. A. -- As the rotors continue to turn the interlobe space increases in size -- Fig. B -- and gas flows continuously into the compressor. Just prior to the point at which the interlobe space leaves the inlet port, the entire length of the interlobe space is completely filled with drawn in gas -- Fig C.

Compression Phase As rotation continues, the gas in the interlobe space is carried circumferentially around the compressor housing. Further rotation meshes a male lobe with the interlobe space on the suction end and squeezes (compresses) the gas in the direction of the discharge port. Thus the occupied volume of the trapped gas within the interlobe space is decreased and the gas pressure consequently increased

Discharge Phase At a point determined by the designed "built-in" compression ratio, the discharge port is covered and the compressed gas is discharged by further meshing of the lobe and interlobe space - Fig. D. While the meshing point of a pair of lobes is moving axially, the next charge is being drawn into the unmeshed portion and the working phases of the compressor cycle are repeated.

Compressor Fully Unloaded

Compressor Fully Loaded

Slide Valve Control Movement of the slide valve is programmed by an exclusive Dunham-Bush electronically initiated (by variations in leaving chilled water temperature) hydraulically actuated control arrangement. When the compressor is fully loaded, the slide valve is in the closed position. Unloading starts when the slide valve is moved back away from the valve stop. Movement of the valve creates an opening in the side of the rotor housing.

Suction gas can then pass back from the rotor housing to the inlet port area before it has been compressed. Since no significant work has been done on this return gas, no appreciable power losses are incurred. Reduced compressor capacity is obtained from the gas remaining in the rotors which is compressed in the ordinary manner. Enlarging the opening in the rotor housing effectively reduces compressor displacement.

Now owners of multiple buildings have a simple and inexpensive method of investigating potential problems quickly and in a highly cost effective manner. REFRIGERATION CYCLE Dunham-Bush Variable Speed Water Cooled Screw Flooded Chillers are designed for efficiency and reliability. The rotary screw compressor is a positive displacement, variable capacity compressor that will allow operation over a wide variety of conditions.

Even at high head and low capacity, a difficult condition for centrifugal compressors, the rotary screw performs easily. It is impossible for this positive displacement compressor to surge.

The refrigerant management system, however, is very similar to centrifugal water chillers and is shown in the refrigerant cycle diagram below.

Liquid refrigerant enters the flooded evaporator uniformly where it absorbs heat from water flowing through the evaporator tubes. The vaporized refrigerant is then drawn into the suction port of the compressor where the positive displacement compression begins.

This partially compressed gas is then joined with additional gas from the economizer as the rotors rotate past the vapor injection port at an intermediate pressure. Compressed gaseous refrigerant is then discharged into the integral oil separator where oil which is contained in the refrigerant vapor, is removed and resumed to the oil sump.

Fully compressed and superheated refrigerant is then discharged into the condenser, where water in the condenser tubes cools and condenses the refrigerant. A potion of liquid refrigerant is tapped passes through the first expansion device and into the economizer for further subcooling of main liquid refrigerant flow.

The gaseous refrigerant is then drawn out of the flash economizer and into the vapor injection port of the compressor. The remaining liquid refrigerant then passes through a second expansion device which reduces 'refrigerant pressure to evaporator levels where it is then distributed evenly into the evaporator. This delivers outstanding efficiency and total energy savings through the utilization of economizer cycle. Increases capacity by as much as 12% with only 7% extra absorbed power.

UNIT FEATURES

PART LOAD PERFORMANCE Through the use of economizer and multiple compressors, Dunham-Bush Variable Speed Water Cooled Screw Flooded Chillers some of the best part-load performance characteristics in the industry when measured in accordance with AHRI Standard 550/590-2011.

In most cases, actual building system loads are significantly less than full load design conditions, therefore chillers operate at part load most of the time.

Dunham-Bush Variable Speed Rotary Screw Water Chillers combine the efficient operation of Variable Frequency Drive (VFD), multiple rotary screw compressors with economizer and controller control to yield the best total energy efficiency and significant operating savings under any load.

When specifying air conditioning equipment, it is important to consider the system load characteristics for the building application. In a typical city, the air conditioning load will vary according to changes in the ambient temperature. Weather data compiled over many years will predict the number of hours that equipment will operate at various load percentages.

The Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI) has established a system, in AHRI Standard 550/590-2011, for measuring total chiller performance over full and part-load conditions. It defines the Integrated Part-Load Value (IPLV) as an excellent method of comparing diverse types of equipment on an equal basis. The IPLV is a single number estimate of a chiller's power use weighted for the number of hours the unit might spend at each part-load point. IPLV's are based on Standard Rating Conditions.

The formula for calculating an IPLV is:

IPLV =

where: A= kW/ton at 100% load point

B= kW/ton at 75% load point C= kW/ton at 50% load point D= kW/ton at 25% load point

GLYCOL FREEZE PROTECTION If the chiller or fluid piping may be exposed to temperatures below freezing, glycol protection is recommended if the water is not drained. The recommended protection is 15°F below the minimum ambient temperature in the equipment room and around piping. Use only glycol solutions approved for heat exchanger duty. DO NOT use automotive anti-freezing.

If the equipment is being used for applications below 38°F, glycol should be used to prevent freeze damage. The freeze protection level should be 15°F lower than the leaving brine temperature.

Table 1 and 2 are to be used to calculate performance and power input with the addition of glycol. Table 3 and 4 are to be used to calculate performance and power input with different fouling factor. Table 1 : Ethylene Glycol

APPLICATION DATA HEAT RECOVERY The Dunham-Bush Variable Speed Water Cooled Screw Flooded Chiller can significantly reduce building operating costs when the heat recovery option is selected. Any building which requires simultaneous heating and cooling may be an excellent candidate for this system. Hotter Hot Water Most centrifugal water chillers are limited in producing leaving condenser water temperatures to 105°F or below. Dunham-Bush Variable Speed Water Cooled Screw Flooded Chillers are able to provide leaving water temperatures over 120°F allowing for the installation of smaller heating coils at a lower first cost than systems utilizing centrifugal water chillers. The warmer supply air temperatures available will also improve tenant comfort.

Greater Design Flexibility Centrifugal water chillers are susceptible to surge conditions during part-load operation and need to be selected to operate in a narrow operating envelope. The heat recovery Dunham-Bush Variable Speed Water Cooled Screw Flooded Chiller, on the other hand, utilizes a positive displacement compressor which will not surge. This chiller is capable of unloading its compressors to their minimum capacity at all head conditions, both cooling and heat recovery, for greater design flexibility. The unit can be modified for Heat Reclaim use.

Lower Energy Consumption The efficient unloading characteristics of the Dunham-Bush Variable Speed Water Cooled Screw Flooded Chiller compressor make it ideal for heat recovery duty. Heat recovery chillers must be selected to operate at many operating conditions, not just full load heating and full load cooling duties. Heat recovery chillers spend the majority of their time at lower loads, conditions at which centrifugal chillers must often be operating with energy inefficient hot gas bypass.

Free Cooling Not Free Heating Even greater energy savings can be achieved when the Dunham-Bush Variable Speed Rotary Screw Water Cooled Heat Recovery Chillers are utilized to their maximum benefit. Typically heat recovery chillers had been thought to supply "free heat" while cooling a constant load within a building. The higher head conditions for heat recovery however cause the

compressor to draw more power than for cooling only duty. The ideal way to utilize a heat recovery chiller would be to have it operate at only the capacity required for the variable-heating load. This would enable the remainder of the base-cooling load to be handled by a separate chiller utilizing evaporator entering condensing water temperatures and greater energy efficiency. Unfortunately, centrifugal chillers do not have the ability to operate at lower percent loads enabling them to satisfy only the heating load required. As a result, centrifugal heat recovery chillers have typically been operating and satisfying the base cooling load and utilizing only a portion of the recoverable heat to satisfy the variable building-heating load. Dunham-Bush Rotary Screw Compressor characteristics, on the other hand, allow the heat recovery chiller to unload to very low load capacities at the high head conditions created in heat recovery operation. To utilize the Dunham-Bush Variable Speed Rotary Screw Heat Recovery Chillers to their fullest potential, the designer must change his way of thinking to providing chillers that are unloaded to provide only the heating load required and simultaneously supply a portion of free cooling to cover the base cooling load.

Controls Units can also be provided with optional dual controls so they can control leaving chilled water or leaving condenser water. A dual bundle condenser is provided on a Heat Recovery Water Chiller which minimizes space requirements. Consult your local Dunham-Bush Sales Representative for additional details.

Head Pressure Control Cooling tower control is increasingly becoming an overlooked subject, and it causes problems. The following is a general recommendation that is applicable to all standard packaged chillers.

Virtually all chiller manufacturers recommend that condenser water be controlled so that its temperature never goes below 60°F (even when the machine is off) and that its rate of change is not rapid. Rapid can be defined as not exceeding 2°F per minute. This is necessary because a chiller operates in a dynamic environment and is designed to maintain a precise leaving chilled water temperature under varying entering conditions. The additional dynamic of rapidly varying condenser water temperature subjects the machine to fluctuating pressure differentials across the evaporator and condenser. This varies the refrigerant flow and, therefore, the capacity. If this occurs faster than the machine can accommodate it, the head pressure or suction pressure will soon exceed their safety setpoints and the machine will shut down.

APPLICATION DATA The necessary control can sometimes be attained via fan cycling if the tower is rated at the same capacity as the chiller and the machine will operate under heavy load and at design conditions. On multiple chiller jobs, a single tower is oversized relative to the chiller. On other jobs the tower/chiller might be oversized to the design load and the machine and tower frequently cycle under light load. Under these conditions, fan cycling might result in very rapid temperature swings, which creates a dynamic situation that occurs faster than the chiller control system can accommodate it. Thus, in this case, either variable speed fans or modulating valve control should be used to regain control of the condenser water. Either type of control provides precise modulating control of the condenser water rather than on-off step control. The control can be initiated either by a condenser water temperature sensor/controller or, even better, by direct control from the chiller's computer based upon the machine's head pressure.

It is further recommended that the condenser water pump be cycled by the chiller. This is to eliminate potentially very cold water from going through the condenser while the chiller is shut down. At the same time it is probable that relatively warmer chilled water is in the evaporator (an inversion). Refrigerant tends to migrate if there is a difference in pressures within the components of the chiller. It will seek the lowest pressure area of the packaged chiller which, in this case, would be the condenser. Starting of a chiller where the refrigerant has migrated to the condenser is not desirable. The presence of highly subcooled liquid refrigerant in the condenser will cause low suction pressures and possibly liquid slugging of the compressor. If the condenser water pump is off until the machine starts, the water in the condenser is at the machine room ambient, which is usually much closer to the evaporator water temperature. It should be noted that a flow switch in the condenser water is not required.

Our unit wiring diagrams show the condenser water pump interlocked with our chiller and controlled to come on only when a compressor is energized. We also have an optional analog output on the controller that can be used to control the tower directly from the head pressure of the machine. The digital outputs can be used for three-point floating (or tri-state) control and the analog can be used to drive a 0 - 10 vdc actuator.

Thus, even though there has been a trend toward fan cycling control of cooling towers, it is not a device that is suitable to every installation. We recommend that the

designer carefully evaluate the system to determine if a more precise method of control is indicated. If there is any doubt, the more precise control is required. We also recommend that the condenser water pump interlock in the chiller control panel be used to enable and disable the condenser water pumps.

Dunham-Bush Variable Speed Water Cooled Chillers have as standard a control feature called EPCAS (Evaporator Pressure Control at Start) which will allow for an inverted start. This occurs when the chilled water loop in a building is at a higher temperature than the condenser/tower loop. This occurs in many buildings after a weekend shut down. The chilled water loop can be as high as 90°F and the condenser/tower loop as low as 60°F. With the EPCAS feature, the valve feeding the evaporator will be throttled to create a pressure differential to help load the compressor.

Ice Storage With a positive displacement rotary screw compressor, the Dunham-Bush Variable Speed water chiller can easily cool low temperature glycol down to 22°F with entering condenser water of 85°F. The same chiller can also produce warmer (40° to 45°F) leaving glycol for those building systems designed for only peak shaving. This can be accomplished by an external signal to the unit controller. No matter what your ice storage needs, the Dunham-Bush Variable Speed Water Cooled Screw Flooded Chiller can handle it better than any other chiller. The use of multiple compressors minimizes the amount of horsepower used at any condition high temperature glycol for direct cooling in coils or low temperature glycol for producing ice at off-peak power rate times.

Multiple Unit Control One of the most perplexing problems to system designers is control of multiple chillers on the same water loop. The first decision is whether to put the chillers in parallel or series on the chilled waterside. If lower pumping cost is paramount, then putting chillers in series is often preferable. If primary/secondary pumping is utilized with normal 10°F range, then putting chillers in parallel is normally used. In either case, the Dunham-Bush controller can control up to five chillers. This eliminates the need for external control interface which often becomes difficult. If more than five chillers need to be controlled, an Equipment Management Center can be supplied for controlling/ monitoring up to ten units.
