Design and Thermodynamic Simulation of a Solar Absorption Icemaker
نویسندگان
چکیده
A solar absorption icemaker was designed. It is an intermittent system and uses Calcium Chloride and Ammonia as absorbent and refrigerant respectively. The single glazed collector/absorber/generator unit uses a plane glass sheet as the outer cover. Overall collector plate exposed area is 1.0m. A thermodynamic simulation of the icemaker has been performed in order to investigate the effect that the generator temperature and collector efficiency have over the Coefficient of Performance (COP). The average solar coefficient of performance of the system is 0.78 It was found that for a constant efficiency at the solar collector, there is an optimum temperature to be used as the generator temperature.
