Current status of absorption/compression cycle technology.

Author(s) : GROLL E. A.

Summary

Absorption/compression cycles, also known as vapour-compression cycles with solution circuits, have been known in the literature for about 100 years. The first theoretical investigations were carried out by Altenkirch in 1950 and indicated a large energy-saving potential. Research activities in the absorption/compression technology have increased rapidly since 1980 and several different experimental plants have been built. The paper gives a detailed overview of the research activities during the last 15 years and describes many configurations and many working pairs.
