Summary

The MH refrigeration systems are regarded as important and compact ones for solving energy and environmental issues. The authors' purposes are to develop the compact refrigeration system for the vending machine and the show case using metal hydride, and to attain a refrigeration temperature of 243 K by using a heat source of 403-423 K. The kinetics of MH and dehydriding reactions is of importance relative to their practical use as a refrigerator system. The kinetics of the reaction between hydrogen and MH(high) composition has been followed in the paper.
