Solubility of the water-lithium bromide-zinc bromide combination.

Summary

A major limitation of the lithium bromide-water system is its low salt solubility, which prevents the strong solution from the generator from being cooled to nearer the absorber temperature without salt crystallization. Such salt crystallization could cause blockages in the solution circuits and result in loss of efficiency. Within a solution temperature range of 25-80 deg C, zinc bromide added to the solution was found to improve significantly the solubility of lithium bromide in water.
