Solar powered solid desiccant cooling system is a good alternative to conventional vapor compression system. In this paper, a novel solar driven desiccant coated heat exchanger cooling (SDCC) system is proposed. In order to validate the feasibility of such system and to predict system...

Increasing attention is being given to energy-saving air conditioning technology in recent years. Using natural refrigerant and driven by low grade thermal energy, rotary desiccant cooling system has become a sound alternative solution to conventional vapor compression system. Although one-stage...

A micro-CCHP (micro combined cooling, heating and power) system is proposed and investigated. It mainly consists of an internal combustion engine (ICE), an adsorption chiller (AD), a thermal management controller (TMC) and some other devices. The waste heat of ICE is collected and managed by the...

Generation temperatures from 110 °C to 140 °C are not enough to drive a double effect LiBr-water absorption cycle but too high for a single effect cycle under typical operating conditions. A novel LiBr-water absorption cycle which contains an AGX (absorber generator heat exchanger) is...
