(V08BT09A013)Magnetic field enhancement in water-lithium bromide absorption refrigeration systems

摘要

Absorption refrigeration systems are generally characterized by low Coefficient of Performance (COP). Absorption enhancement is an effective way of improving the COP of refrigeration systems. Literature is sparse on the use of magnetic field for the enhancement of absorption refrigeration systems despite its cheapness and environmental friendliness as compared with other enhancement methods. Although the method has recently been employed on ammonia solution, its influence on lithium bromide (LiBr) solution is yet to be fully studied. In this paper a numerical model for the magnetic field enhancement in water-LiBr absorption systems was developed and evaluated.
