Conception, simulation, dimensioning, and testing of an experimental chemical heat pump.

Author(s) : LEBRUN M., NEVEU P.

Summary

The development of chemical heat pumps necessitates the construction of machines the size of a semi-industrial prototype or industrial pilot plant. The transposition from laboratory plant necessitates the development of a dimensioning method. The basic dimensioning tool is numerical modelling of the operation of chemical heat pumps. The model parameters are fixed from experimental results obtained in specific laboratory experiments. These studies have permitted the realization of a 20 to 50 kilowatt prototype.
