Abstract: We present a method for dynamic simulation of a two-reactor adsorption heat pump. The operating principle of the system is described and the governing equations are derived, taking into account the efficiencies of the various components. A non-dimensional form of the model shows the important parameters which influence system performance. The resulting set of nonlinear differential equations is solved numerically using an iterative method. The model is tested using the zeolite-water adsorption pair and design data from the literature.
