Type of article: Article

Summary

Introduces an ejector refrigeration system that uses a conventional refrigerant (R114), as a possible mechanism for providing solar-based air conditioning. Investigates optimum coupling conditions between the collector's energy output and energy requirements of the cooling system. Describes a multi-ejector arrangement that provides an efficient adjustment for variations of ambient conditions. States year-round air conditioning as facilitated by rerouting the refrigerant flow through a heating mode of the system. Carries out calculations for illustrative configurations in which relatively low condensing temperature (water reservoirs, cooling towers or moderate climate) can be maintained.
