REFRIGERATION CYCLE
Dunham-Bush rotary screw air
cooled 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 in a
stable manner. It is impossible
for this positive displacement
compressor to surge.

system, however, is very similar
to centrifugal water chillers and
is shown in the refrigerant cycle

Liquid refrigerant enters the
