Adsorber efficiency in adsorbtion refrigeration

Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2013, vol. 20, issue C, 570-575

Abstract: The coefficient of performance, COP, of an adsorption cooling is theoretically obtained. It shows the influence of the thermophysical properties of the adsorbent-adsorbate media regardless of the design of the machine. These quantities require a detailed understanding of the influence of temperature on the adsorbent and the adsorbate conditions in a cycle, so that an accurate determination of the thermodynamic behaviour is developed in order to obtain the COP.
