Abstract: Absorption heat pump technology may be improved by new cycle configurations by new working fluids. In this study, the effect of hypothetical working fluids on performance improvement is explored. ...

Abstract: The essential design parameters for determining the optimum configuration of an air-cooled condenser are identified in this paper. For a power plant operating on a Rankine cycle, expressions for ...

Abstract: A theramlly driven heat pump using a solid/vapor adsorption/desorption compression process in a vapor compression cycle is thermodynamically analyzed. The cycle utilizes a simple heat transfer ...

Abstract: A thermally driven heat pump using a solid/vapor adsorption/desorption compression process is thermodynamically analyzed. Heat regeneration between the two adsorbent beds is accomplished through the ...
