A graphical procedure for desiccant cooling cycle design
Nóbrega, C.E.L.; Brum, N.C.L. - In: Energy 36 (2011) 3, pp. 1564-1570
The interest in solid desiccant cooling cycles has been continuously increasing, supported by both the ecological soundness and the cost reduction associated with the low grade thermal energy it requires. As a result, many feasibility studies are conducted considering solar energy or waste heat...

Evaluation of thermal parameters and simulation of a solar-powered, solid-sorption chiller with a CPC collector
González, Manuel I.; Rodríguez, Luis R.; Lucio, Jesús H. - In: Renewable Energy 34 (2009) 3, pp. 570-577
A model is presented to simulate the operation of a solid-sorption chiller using the methanol-activated carbon pair and a CPC (compound parabolic concentrator) solar collection system. The model is based on assigning constant thermal exchange parameters to all the main elements...
