A Study on Performance Characteristics of A Single Effect LiBr/Water Refrigeration Cycle

단효용 LiBr/물 흡수식 냉동사이클의 성능특성에 관한 연구

As a way to use energy effectively, the present study is aimed at investigating the performance characteristics of a Single Effect LiBr/Water Absorption Refrigerator using a low temperature driving heat-source. It was carried out by changing the driving heat-source temperature, the cold water outlet temperature(the refrigeration load), the cooling water inlet temperature, and the weak solution flow rate and this study compares the performance characteristics of refrigerator against the existence and non-existence of the Recirculation of the Weak solution which is used as a method to improve the performance of refrigerator. In case of Recirculation of the weak solution, more improved the Refrigeration Capacity and COP was obtained, and these effects became more larger in the high temperature of driving heat-source and large quantity of solution.
