LIMITING PARAMETERS OF CHEMICAL-ADSORPTION CONVERSION OF THERMAL ENERGY UNDER PERFECT HEAT TRANSFER WITHIN AN ADSORBER
Abstract
The limiting case of operation of an adsorption refrigerator, in which the temperature and concentration are uniform over the cross-section due to a uniform distribution of heat transfer fluid within an adsorber and a high rate of heat exchange between sorbent and heat transfer fluid, is examined. The influence of various parameters on the efficiency of the considered device is investigated and their optimum values are found.
