Modelling of absorbers and comparison of cocurrent and countercurrent absorption for heat conversion systems.

Author(s) : HACKNER M., STEPHAN K.

Summary

The paper presents a dynamic model for an industrial type horizontal tube falling film absorber, which is a common configuration in absorption chillers. The model is formulated for the working pair ammonia/water in the presence of non-absorbable gases. For a proper selection and design of absorbers, both a model for countercurrent and for cocurrent flow were developed. A validation of the derived model for countercurrent flow is carried out.
