Direct combustion of gaseous or liquid fuel is possible in them as well.</p>
<p>In the systems of production of cold and heat the AHT take quite a definite niche where they are economically attractive. This can be confirmed by the fact that quite a large number of lithium-bromide AHTis being produced in the USA, Japan, China and South Korea.</p>
<p>Large scientific potential has been accumulated in our country during the past 50 years which allows to produce units competitive with the best world standards. There are fairly reliable data on heat- and mass transfer in the units of water-ammonia and lithium-bromide AHT; effective corrosion inhibitors have been proposed; a body of mathematics allowing to rather accurately calculate properties of many working solutions and characteristics of AHT has been developed. The ООО Teplosybmach with the participation of the Instіtute of Thermophysics of SO RAN and SPbGUN and PT have developed lithiumbromide AHTs of new generation.</p>
<p>At the present time scientific research should be primarily directed to development of efficient systems of application of AHT in different branches of national economy.</p>bromidolithium heat converterseconomic attractivenessheat exchangecorrosion inhibitorsбромистолитиевые преобразователи теплотыэкономическая привлекательностьтеплообменингибиторы коррозии
