Abstract: The experimental findings are reported from testing an innovative hybrid refrigeration cycle bringing together a single effect Lithium Bromide-Water refrigerator and a steam ejector and aimed at vacuum freezing an ice store. An experimental set-up was designed and fabricated in order to study the operational performance of the novel arrangement under different conditions. The novel system delivered desired results with the ice store frozen in useful time using solely low grade heat to power the cycle. The average COP of the freezing process is 0.24.
