Análise da Eficiência Energética dos Sistemas de Climatização Centralizada: Estudo de Caso no Polo Industrial de Manaus

Abstract

This dissertation examines the energy efficiency of centralized air conditioning systems in an industry at the Industrial Polo of Manaus (PIM), comparing direct expansion (air) and indirect expansion (water) equipment. The study shows that replacing screw chillers with centrifugal chillers reduces electricity consumption by up to 40%, with a quick return on investment (payback).
