Summary

Using NH3-H2O-LiBr ternary working fluid is an effective way to promote the performance of ammonia absorption refrigeration system (AARS). First, the experiment results indicated that 15% was the optimum LiBr concentration. The COP and the exergy efficiency of the NH3-H2O-LiBr ternary system were promoted up to 7.6% and 8.96%. Second, the negative effect of LiBr on circulation was small and the COP rose when the LiBr concentration was less than 15%. But the circulation ratio increased by 121% when the LiBr concentration reached 20%, which resulted in COP sharply dropping. Third, the absorber cooling load decreased by 18.7% at most in ternary system. The application of NH3-H2O-LiBr ternary solution is beneficial for the miniaturization of absorber and AARS. Finally, the viscosity of the NH3-H2O-LiBr ternary solution was measured. The results indicated that temperature and NH3 had more influence on solution viscosity than LiBr.
