Silica gel-water adsorption-cooling system.

Author(s) : CHO S. H., KIM J. N., YOU Y. J.

Summary

A test set of a silica gel-water adsorption-cooling system with two adsorbers (110 kg of silica gel per bed) was operated to produce chilled water from low-grade industrial waste heat. And a parametric study was performed to determine the effects of component heat transfer rate on the cold generation capacity by utilizing a numerical model. In this case, the heat transfer rate of the condenser is the most sensitive variable. By modifying the heat transfer rates of the condenser and adsorber, the thermal performance could be improved by about three times. The present model can be utilized to investigate and optimize the adsorption-cooling system.
