Summary

IN THIS WORK SOME ALTERNATIVES IN THE DESIGN OF AN ADSORPTION HEAT TRANSFORMER, SUCH AS A 2-TANK SYSTEM, 3-TANK SYSTEM AND 4-TANK SYSTEM, ARE EVALUATED USING ZEOLITE-WATER VAPOUR. THE VALUES OF COPS ARE COMPUTED FOR VARIOUS TEMPERATURES OF WASTE HEAT SOURCE. IT IS FOUND THAT AN ADSORPTION HEAT TRANSFORMER CAN BE USED FOR A GROSS TEMPERATURE LIFT AS HIGH AS 50 K WITH A FAIRLY GOOD COP VALUE. MOREOVER THE 4-TANK SYSTEM GIVES A MUCH IMPROVED COP VALUE AS COMPARED TO THE 2-TANK AND 3-TANK SYSTEMS. THE EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE DRIVING FORCE FOR HEAT TRANSFER ON THE COP VALUE IS QUITE PRONOUNCED.
