In order to utilize the adsorption chiller or heat pump as a next-generation air conditioning system, several issues still remain, such as performance improvement, miniaturization, and cost reduction. It is known that the activated carbon-freon refrigerant pair has a relatively lower coefficient of performance (COP) than the silica gel-water or freon refrigerant pair and zeolite-water pair. However, there is a possibility to contribute minimize the adsorption heat pump system utilizing Freon refrigerant since it works in high-pressure regions and has a high saturation vapor density. Therefore, evaluating and improving the performance of Freon refrigerant is an important future task.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
