“…Evangelos et al [9] the effect of the heat-exchanger design parameters and the effect of space velocity of the thermofluid on system performance.…”

Numerical Investigation of Silica Gel-Water Solar Adsorption Cooling System with Simulink

“…The two-bed silica gel-water adsorption chiller was studied by several researchers (Benelmir et al, 2013;Saha et al, 2001;2003;Hildbrand et al, 2004;Liu et al, 2005a;Zhai and Wang, 2010;Luo et al, 2010;Rezk and Al-Dadah, 2012;Voyiatzis et al, 2008). Moreover, this adsorption couple is widely studied in the literature.…”

Transient behavior of a cylindrical adsorbent bed during the adsorption process

“…Efforts on the development of a novel commercial cooling system have been extensively diverted to the thermally driven adsorption based cooling systems in the recent years since these systems are environmentally friendly and can be operated with a low-grade heat sources such as solar energy or waste heat [1][2][3][4]. However, still the thermal powered adsorption cooling systems do not seem a desired level to be able to compete with the traditional vapor compression cooling systems as far as their performances are concerned [5].…”
