Abstract: | An adsorption heat pump system using a new binary coupling adsorptive cycle is developed and tested. Experimental results show that the COP of the binary coupling cycle is higher than that of a pure zeolite-water system. The system operating pressure is found to be moderate (close to the ambient pressure) when a proper concentration of ammonia is used in the system. The moderate operating pressure of the new coupling cycle results in low leakage to the system, achieving long life and the light design of the system vessels. The use of the new binary adsorption cycle greatly improves the feasibility and reliability of the adsorption heat pumps, providing essential benefits for the industrialisation of adsorption heat pumps. |
