Type of article: Article

Summary

THE SYSTEMS CONSIDERED ARE CONVENTIONAL CLOSED-CYCLE AND OPEN-CYCLE ABSORPTION SYSTEMS WITH AN ADDITIONAL OPEN-ABSORBER COMPONENT THROUGH WHICH THE PROCESS ROOM AIR IS PASSED, COOLED AND DEHUMIDIFIED. THERMODYNAMIC MODELLING OF SYSTEM COMPONENTS WITH WATER-LITHIUM BROMIDE AS WORKING FLUID HAVE BEEN CARRIED OUT AND THE SYSTEM COP PREDICTED AS A FUNCTION OF REGENERATOR TEMPERATURE, MASS FLOW RATIO AND LATENT HEAT LOAD IN THE PROCESS AIR AND THE AMBIENT AIR. OPEN AND CLOSED CYCLE OPTIONS HAVE BEEN COMPARED. IT IS CONCLUDED THAT THE HYBRID DOUBLE-ABSORPTION SOLAR COOLING SYSTEMS ARE BETTER IN PERFORMANCE THAN CONVENTIONAL SYSTEMS AND AN OPEN-CYCLE DOUBLE-ABSORPTION SYSTEM IS EVEN MORE ATTRACTIVE AND COST EFFECTIVE AS COMPARED TO CLOSED-CYCLE OPTION.
