Summary

The main objective of this paper is to simulate different solar absorption power-cooling systems that use ammonia as working fluid to simultaneously produce cooling and mechanical power with a single system. The power and cooling cycles through absorption are of great interest because they can use low temperature thermal energy sources as solar energy with a higher versatility than the separated production of power and refrigeration to attend the typical variable cooling and power demands of the buildings. In this study we have considered three configurations based on the Goswami power-cooling cycle depending on the solar thermal technology: evacuated tube, parabolic trough and linear Fresnel solar collectors. To compare the configurations we have performed the energy and exergy analysis for a specific case located in Sevilla using TRNSYS as simulation software.
