A COMPARISON OF EIGHT SOLAR DRIVEN ABSORPTION COOLING SYSTEMS IN THE NATIONAL SOLAR DATA NETWORK.

Author(s) : KELLY C. J. Jr, LOGEE T. L.

Summary

A STUDY HAS BEEN MADE OF EIGHT SYSTEMS WHICH WERE OPERATED IN A VARIETY OF CLIMATES DURING THE 1980 COOLING SEASON. PRESENTED IN THIS PAPER ARE SUMMARY RESULTS OF THIS STUDY. ALTHOUGH ONLY TWO SYSTEMS SHOWED ENERGY SAVINGS AND THEY WERE INSIGNIFICANT, VALUABLE LESSONS WERE LEARNED FROM THE STUDY. EACH SYSTEM HAD SOME DESIRABLE DESIGN FEATURES. TAKING THESE FEATURES TOGETHER, A PROJECTED COMPOSITE SYSTEM IS POSITED WHICH WOULD HAVE PERFORMED MUCH BETTER. SUGGESTIONS ARE PRESENTED WHICH SHOULD LEAD TO MORE EFFECTIVE DESIGNS FOR THIS TYPE OF RENEWABLE ENERGY APPLICATION.
