Abstract
This paper provides a focus on the R&D of solid sorption coolers and heat pumps made in the Luikov Heat & Mass Transfer Institute (CIS Countries Association “Heat Pipes”) under Thermacore, Inc. Agreement.
Commercial and space applications of sorbent systems offer an attractive alternative to compression systems and liquid sorption systems for cooling, heating and air conditioning.
MgA zeolites solid sorption systems are analyzed. Some new results are presented.
Solid sorption heat pump technology utilizing heat pipe heat recovery with a condensing/evaporating refrigerant holds considerable promise for bivariant (space and domestic) applications due to the variable temperature and variable load capabilities of such machines.
