Cycle Analysis of Air-Cooled Double-Effect Absorption Cooling System with Parallel Flow Type

공랭형 병렬방식 2중효용 흡수식 냉방시스템의 사이클 해석

A gas-fired 4RT absorption heat pump was designed as an air-conditioner for domestic use during the summer. The absorption heat pump is air-cooled. double-effect, $LiBr-H_{2}O$ system with parallel flow type. The performance of the absorption heat pump in the cooling mode of operation was investigated through cycle modeling and simulation to obtain the system characteristics with parameter changes. System parameters considered in this analysis were the inlet temperature of cooling air to the absorber, the working solution concentrations, the ratio of the amount of the weak solution from the absorber, and the LTD's of each heat exchange component. The optimum designs and operating conditions were determined based on the operating constraints and the coefficient of performance.
