Summary

A numerical investigation of the effect of operating conditions on the thermal performance (coefficient of performance and specific cooling power) of an adsorption cooling system based on the Zeolite 13X/water working pair is presented in this paper. Both heat and mass transfer limitations are taken into account in the numerical model. Darcy's law and the linear driving force model are used to describe the mass transfer limitation between the particles and within the particle, respectively. In this study, the effect of operating conditions on system performance were investigated.
