abstract
performance optimization of a single-effect lithium bromide water absorption refrigerationsystem is the subject of this paper. first, the thermodynamic model of the system wasderived based on thefirst and second law analysis of an absorption refrigeration cycle with libr-water as the working fluid pair.then, the effects of different design parameters such as the generator inlet hot water temperature, evaporatorinlet chilling water temperature and absorber and condenser inlet cooling water temperatures on the performanceof the systemwere investigated. in order that, by defining the coefficient of performance (cop), exergyefficiency (second-law efficiency) and total cost function of the system as the objective functions, the geneticalgorithm optimization technique was implemented to evaluate these performance indexes. finally, the optimalvalues of design parameters and objective functions were found and compared to the initial values. resultsshow significant improvement in system cop (about 75 %), exergy efficiency (47 %) and total cost (12 %).

Thermoeconomic Analysis of a Single and Double-Effect LiBr/H2O Absorption Refrigeration System*
The aim of this work is to carry out a thermoeconomic analysis of a single and double-effect LiBr/H2O absorption refrigeration system. The methodology of functional analysis with negentropy is used. The exergetic cost of the main product, the cooling cost, was calculated as a function of the exergy of the heat source. Two cases were analyzed for each system: the first considers a direct-fired s...

Up to now, the production of the cold is undertaking mainly by the classical way of compression refrigerator cycle. The cycle need an electrical power or mechanics expense for the training of the compressor and the C.F.C for their functioning. Most of the C.F.C impoverish the layer of ozone and participate with a considerable manner, to the increase of the sere effect, then to climatic changes....
full textDynamic simulation of an ammonia-water absorption refrigeration system
A dynamic model of a single-effect absorption refrigeration cycle has been developed. Modeling of the cycle performance requires thermodynamic properties which are obtained from equations of state for refrigerant-absorbent mixtures. The transient response of the absorption refrigeration cycle is investigated using mass, momentum and energy balances for the different parts of the system. Some de...

This paper examines through a thermodynamic analysis the feasibility of using waste heat from marine Diesel engines to drive an ammonia-water absorption refrigeration system. An energy balance of a diesel engine shows that sufficient waste heat is provided. The results illustrate that higher performance of the system is obtained at high generator and evaporator temperatures and also at low cond...
