Abstract:The present paper aims at exploring a hybrid absorption-compression heat pump (HAC-HP) to upgrade and recover the industrial waste heat in the temperature range of 60~120 °C. The proposed new HAC-HP system has one condenser, one evaporator and one more solution pump comparing to the conventional HAC-HP system to allow flexible usage of energy sources of electricity and waste heat. In the proposed system, the pressure of ammonia-water vapor desorbed in the generator can be elevated by two routes, one is via the… Show more
