INCREASING THE SOLAR FRACTION IN SOLAR ENERGIZED AIR CONDITIONING.

Author(s) : NEWTON A. B.

Summary

THE PAPER DEALS WITH THE KNOWN EXPRESSIONS OF THE EFFICIENCY OF COMMERCIAL ABSORPTION UNITS AND COLLECTOR ARRAYS. THE CORRELATION DEPENDS MUCH ON THE STORAGE PROCESS AND THE TEMPERATURE RANGE. IT SHOWS THAT COMMERCIAL ABSORPTION UNITS CAN BE MODULATED SO THAT LOW TEMPERATURE ENERGY CAN BE USED, WITHIN THE CAPACITY OF GOOD FLAT PLATE COLLECTORS. THE SOLAR SYSTEM HAS THE ADVANTAGE OF SUCH A MODULATION AND THE EFFICIENCY LOSS DUE TO THE REQUIREMENT OF COLD STORAGE IS ELIMINATED. THIS PAPER PRESENTS SOLAR COOLING SYSTEMS MORE ECONOMICAL FOR COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS. WHEN SMALLER AIR-COOLED ABSORPTION UNITS ARE AVAILABLE, WITH POTENTIALITIES SIMILAR TO THOSE OF PRESENT COMMERCIAL MODELS, 7 TO 175 KILOW PLANT CAN USE THE SAME PRINCIPLE.
