This paper describes the development of a combined ejector-vapor compression cycle (EVCC) that uses working fluid R134a and air-cooled condensers for both sub-cycles. A large amount of experiments have been conducted to test the influence of the evaporating, generating and condensing...

This paper presents a model-based optimization strategy for vapor compression refrigeration cycle. Through analyzing each component characteristics and interactions within the cycle, the optimization problem is formulated as minimizing the total operating cost of the energy consuming devices...

This study presents a model-based optimization strategy for an actual chiller driven dehumidifier of liquid desiccant dehumidification system operating with lithium chloride solution. By analyzing the characteristics of the components, energy predictive models for the components in the...
