Abstract:The development of more efficient and reliable absorption/adsorption refrigeration for air conditioners (ACs) and chillers is of great interest due to the increasing demand of these cooling devices in homes and offices. Presently, majority of the ACs incorporate aqueous lithium salts as both refrigerate and desiccant, which are corrosive and lead to corrosion of the mechanical components. This increases maintenance costs and decreases the cooling system's lifespan. Herein, an encapsulation method is proposed t… Show more
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.
