Study on a compact silica gel–water adsorption chiller without vacuum valves: Design and experimental study

Performance Simulation of Two-Bed Adsorption Refrigeration Chiller with Mass Recovery

“…Variations in cooling load were also considered and the average cooling load over a cycle was found to be more important for predicting system performance than the variations in the cooling load over time. A two-bed, two-condenser and two-evaporator heat and mass recovery process was explored experimentally by Chen et al [15]. They removed the check valves usually used in a system to regulate the flow from the evaporator and condenser and instead actively controlled the valve to improve the heat and mass recovery.…”

An innovative ecological hybrid refrigeration cycle for high power refrigeration facility

“…consists of an efficient heat exchanger combining the CO 2 condenser with H 2 O evaporator. However, this reduces its possibility for direct use of a cooling tower to cool down the condenser in cold seasons, while sorption system itself can be applied for heating as a heat pump (Chen et al, 2010;Grzebielec, 2009;Starace et al, 2014;Wang et al, 2005;Ward et al, 1979). The concept of the presented system is the composition of the HT adsorption with LT compression cycle shown in Fig.…”

Comparison of different kinds of heat recoveries applied in adsorption refrigeration system

“…However, the internal heat is almost impossible to recover completely in actual situation. Thus part type heat recovery cycle with more easier and simpler fulfillment leads to the common use in adsorption refrigeration prototypes (Chen et al, 2010;Gong et al, 2012;Liu et al, 2005;Wang et al, 2005a;Wang et al, 2005b). However, part type heat recovery cycle has not been specially and systematically studied yet.…”

“…The simulation done by Wang (Wang, 2001) showed that the COPs of heat and mass recovery cycles could be increased by 25% and 10%, respectively. The remarkable improvement in performance and easy realization makes heat recovery and mass recovery cycles be extensively applied in recent adsorption refrigeration prototypes (Chen et al, 2010;Gong et al, 2012;Liu et al, 2005;Lu and Wang, 2013; M A N U S C R I P T…”
