Abstract: Based upon the theoretical principle of the thermochemical energy storage pumping pipe system, a new cooling system has been presented. In order to analyse the performance and design of the system based on adsorption pumping pipe process, a simplified mathematical model is developed. Both simulation and experimental results are given and discussed. The comparison of various methods (ammonium dissolves, evaporation of CO2, etc.) showed that it is the simplest and most reliable to use adsorbents such as zeolite in this cooling system. A total of 250 g zeolite 13X could reduce the temperature of 330 ml by 15°C in 2–3 min (for beverage self-cooling applications). For future work, a large scale demonstration system is required to prove the viability and long term performance of thermochemical cooling/energy storage system.
