Summary

A novel solar-driven adsorption cooling system that is able to produce cold continuously along the 24-h of the day is proposed in this study. The working principle of the proposed system is based on the constant temperature adsorption cooling cycle which is introduced also in this work. Both of the cooling system principle of operation and the cycle description are explained in details. Moreover, complete thermodynamic analysis is performed for all components of the system as well as processes of the theoretical cycle. Activated carbon-methanol is used as the working pair in the case studied. Furthermore, a parametric study of the influence of many system parameters on the performance is accomplished and discussed as well.
