Summary

This article presents the results of experiments with 3 different experimental set-ups based on the coupling salts NiCl2, MnCl2, BaCl2 with an active carbon fibre "Busofit". The study demonstrated the possibility of a resorption heat pump with simultaneous heat production (steam at T= 120-130 °C) and chilled water production (T= 3-5 °C) with COP near 1.2. Heat recovery by the heat pipe, thermal regulation and internal mass regeneration between the reactors could increase this COP up to 1.4-1.5. The resorption heat pump with a 1400-1500 W heat output is an autonomous portable device, allowing the user to apply this system in space or on Earth (underwater, underground), to supply or postpone the heating and cooling capacity and to control the heat and cold output. The device has no moving parts, is noiseless and light. Pressure control regulation of the heat pump is reliable and simple.
