STUDY OF THERMALLY DRIVEN SORPTION CHILLER

In this study, the dynamic behaviour of a 4 bed adsorption chiller was analysed employing silica gel as the adsorbent and water as the refrigerant. The simulated results in terms of heat transfer fluid temperatures cycle average cooling capacity and coefficient of performance (COP) were obtained num...
