The effect of external and operating conditions on a solar Lithium Bromide absorption chiller

The excessive consumption of fossil energies (electrical energy) during summer caused by the technological development involves more and more climate warming, in order to relieve insistency between electric supply and demand, heat driven absorption chillier is pretty promising, it consists on using heat (solar) as motive energy to provide cold energy. The single effect absorption cycle is the simplest absorption cycle, it’s composed of four main components which are all heat exchangers using a diversity couple of refrigerant. Lithium bromide aqueous solution is one of many others solutions widely used in the absorption chiller for cooling purposes; it possesses several advantages over the other type of absorption systems, such as It highest coefficient of performance compared to other absorption units at the same conditions. A simple flat plat collector can assume the energy required for heating the solution in the generator. Even though, LiBr solution may cause the problem of the crystallization and the limitation of this machine on cooling did not affect the economical aspect of LiBr absorption chiller. The main aim of this article is to study the effect of thermal and environmental parameters each compound of an absorption chiller which produce a cool power equal to 1 kW
