Experimental investigation of a silica gel-water adsorption refrigeration cycle. The influence of operating conditions on cooling output and COP.

Author(s) : BOELMAN E. C., SAHA B. B., KASHIWAGI T.

Summary

Experiments were conducted with several heat transfer fluid operating temperatures (hot, cooling and chilled water), flow rates, and adsorption-desorption cycle times, and good qualitative agreement was obtained with the simulated results. Both experiments and simulation showed that the silica gel-water adsorption cycle is well suited to near-environmental-temperature heat sources and small regenerating temperature lifts, which help reduce the heat losses intrinsic to batched cycle operation.
