Preliminary Results on Experimental Modelling of an Adsorption Chiller

An Adsorption Chiller Driven by Thermoelectricity

Development of a Solar Powered Adsorption Chiller

Heat driven cooling technologies like vapour absorption and adsorption systems are environmentally friendly. Use of thermal compression in these systems saves precious and fast-depleting fossil fuel resources. Solar energy and low-grade waste heat can be effectively used in running these cooling systems. The present work focuses on the development of a solar-powered vapour adsorption based cool...

Numerical Simulation of Advanced Adsorption Refrigeration Chiller with Mass Recovery

This paper investigates the thermodynamic framework of a three-bed advanced adsorption chiller, where the mass recovery scheme has been utilized such that the performances of this chiller could be improved and a CFC-free-based sorption chiller driven by the low-grade waste heat or any renewable energy source can be developed for the next generation of refrigeration. Silica gel-water is chosen a...

Modelling Linear Logic Without Units (Preliminary Results)

Proof nets for MLL, unit-free Multiplicative Linear Logic (Girard, 1987), provide elegant, abstract representations of proofs. Cut-free MLL proof nets form a category, under path composition, in the manner of EilenbergKelly-Mac Lane graphs (Eilenberg and Kelly, 1966; Kelly and Mac Lane, 1971). Objects are formulas of MLL, and a morphism A → B, a proof net from A to B, is a linking or matching b...

Modelling Pronunciation Variation: Some Preliminary Results

In this paper we describe a method for improving the performance of a continuous speech recognizer by modelling pronunciation variation. Although the results obtained with this method are in line with those reported by other authors, the magnitude of the improvements is very small. In looking for possible explanations for these results, we computed various sorts of statistics about the material...
