A novel double heat pipe type adsorber, which uses compound adsorbent of CaCl2 and expanded graphite to improve the adsorption performance, is designed. The double heat pipes are integrated into the adsorbers in order to solve the problem of the corrosion between seawater and the steel adsorber...

A chemisorption air conditioner with NaBr/expanded graphite composite sorbent and NH3 as refrigerant was designed and constructed to be powered by low temperature heat. The effect of independent variables (chilled water inlet temperature, heat source temperature and cycle time) on the...
