Résumé

This paper presents the development of two novel compact heat and mass exchange concepts for use as the desorber in small capacity ammonia-water absorption systems. Both concepts feature a counter-flow orientation of the vapor and solution streams, in which the generated vapor rises through small channels within the component, flowing past the heated ammonia-water solution. Heat input to the device is achieved by a hot coupling fluid, which flows through a microchannel array adjacent to the vapor/solution channels in a counter-flow orientation with the solution stream. This geometry leads to high solution-side heat transfer coefficients and low coupling fluid heat transfer resistances, enabling a significant reduction in component size. This arrangement is also found to produce high-purity ammonia vapor, which leads to reduced rectification loads and a higher coefficient of performance (COP) of the system compared to more conventional designs. Additionally, both designs can be configured to include an analyzer and rectification section, which leads to a more compact, integrated system package, and reduces external fluid connections and cost. A model of the coupled heat and mass exchange process associated with ammonia-water desorption in these concepts is developed. The proposed design is compact, scalable, versatile and easily mass-produced. This concept can also be extended for use in other multi-component heat and mass transfer applications.
