Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

A refrigeration/heat pump system based on a number of simple tubular adsorption modules is described. A single module is comprised of a generator and a receiver/condenser/evaporator. A single generator consisting of a 12.7 mm stainless steel tube lined with 3 mm of monolithic active carbon has been manufactured. A complete module has been tested in a simple rig, which subjects it to alternating hot and cold airstreams, desorbing and adsorbing ammonia. A complete system, consisting of 32 modules has been modelled in detail and its predicted performance is presented. Key parameters have been varied and their effect on the performance discussed.
