Summary

PRESENTS AN INVESTIGATION OF AN AMMONIA-WATER ABSORPTION CYCLE FOR SOLAR REFRIGERATION, AIR CONDITIONING AND HEAT PUMP OPERATIONS AT HIGHER HEAT SUPPLY TEMPERATURES. A STEADY STATE THERMODYNAMIC CYCLE ANALYSIS BASED ON MASS AND HEAT BALANCES ALONG WITH THE STATE EQUATIONS FOR THE THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES OF THE AMMONIA-WATER MIXTURE HAS BEEN CARRIED OUT. A NUMERICAL COMPUTER SIMULATION OF THE SYSTEM HAS BEEN MADE TO EVALUATE THE RELATIVE HEAT TRANSFER RATES (IE COP) AND THE MASS FLOW RATES FOR THE COOLING/HEATING MODES. IN GENERAL THE RESULTS ARE MORE PRONOUNCED FOR THE REFRIGERATION MODE THAN FOR THE HEAT PUMP MODE AND ARE LEAST EFFECTIVE FOR THE AIR CONDITIONING MODE. (INT. BUILD. SERV.
