Type of monograph: Doctoral thesis

Summary

This thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in mechanical engineering includes a theoretical analysis of the feasibility of absorption air conditioning system in automotive applications. A comparison of the power requirements of the proposed system and the vapour compression system is also given. Extract from the table of contents: mathematical model for absorption refrigeration cycle (thermodynamic analysis; properties for the working fluid; waste heat available to operate the system); results and discussion (comparison with experimental data; performance analysis; corrosion effects of water-lithium bromide; future research); recommendations.
