Abstract
An experimental investigation on design of a vapour absorption system using LiBr-H2Ofor high grade heat recovery in thermal cooling system for process heat applications has been conducted. A 1.5 kW cooling capacityof the LiBr-H2O vapour absorption system has beend esigned and tested under various operating conditions. Generator temperature, absorber tem-perature, condenser temperature and evaporator temperature have been varied and perfor-mance of LiBr-H2O vapour absorption system has been analysed. Experimental results are presented in terms of COP and circulation ratio. Further, to validate the results thermody-namic model is developed using first law of thermodynamics and simulate in Engineering Equation Solver. The COP and the circulation ratio estimated through simulationsand exper-iments have been in good agreement with ±5% standard deviation. Further, this this research work is beneficial for dairy industries in process heat applications and realizing the impor-tance of the need for energy conservation in dairy industries.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Thermal Enginering is aimed at giving a recognized platform to students, researchers, research scholars, teachers, authors and other professionals in the field of research in Thermal Engineering subjects, to publish their original and current research work to a wide, international audience. In order to achieve this goal, we will have applied for SCI-Expanded Index in 2021 after having an Impact Factor in 2020. The aim of the journal, published on behalf of Yildiz Technical University in Istanbul-Turkey, is to not only include actual, original and applied studies prepared on the sciences of heat transfer and thermodynamics, and contribute to the literature of engineering sciences on the national and international areas but also help the development of Mechanical Engineering. Engineers and academicians from disciplines of Power Plant Engineering, Energy Engineering, Building Services Engineering, HVAC Engineering, Solar Engineering, Wind Engineering, Nanoengineering, surface engineering, thin film technologies, and Computer Aided Engineering will be expected to benefit from this journal’s outputs.
