Absorption chiller system driven by the solar hybrid system: Case study in the algeria weather condition

In this paper, the performances of a novel hybrid solar system using the Al2O3 nanofluid and pure water as a heat transfer fluid to operate a single-effect lithium bromide absorption chiller are investigated. In which the performance of the proposed system using the nanofluid during winter and summe...
