Abstract:Liquid films falling over horizontal-tube banks are frequently utilized in absorption heat pumps, heat-driven systems that provide an environmentally and economically attractive alternative to conventional CFC-based vapor compression cycles in certain applications. The widespread application of these systems has faced crucial hurdles due to the lack of aflow-mechanism based, experimentally validated theory for the binary-fluid absorption heat and mass transfer in falling films. This present work aims to advanc… Show more
