Absorption cycles: a review with regard to energetic efficiency.

Author(s) : ZIEGLER F., RIESCH P.

Type of article: Article

Summary

The authors review the potential of absorption heat pump technology in respect of environment. Absorption systems are compared to conventional compression systems with regard to the consumption of primary energy. Absorption systems have a large potential for energy saving, especially when they are operated by heat from cogeneration systems or by waste heat. But even direct-fired systems can compete with compression machinery: highly efficient cycles are in development.
