Performance improvement of adsorption heat pump by heat and mass recovery operations.

Author(s) : WANG R.

Summary

Theoretical analyses have been done, in which the COP for a basic intermittent adsorption cycle, a continuous two-adsorber heat recovery cycle, mass recovery cycle, mass recovery with sensible heat recovery, mass recovery with both sensible heat and heat of adsorption recovery, have been specially studied. The theoretical results are in good agreement with experimental values. Based upon the developed theoretical model, it is possible to predicate the COP for various operation procedures of a real adsorption heat pump. Application to a carbon methanol adsorption heat pump, for air conditioning, is presented.
