Study of Vapour Absorption System Using Various Working Fluids

Nisha Sen | Dr. O. K. Singh

Abstract: Due to ever increasing global temperature the need of refrigeration system is increasing. Now a days refrigeration consumes quit a large amount of energy. Our dependency on non renewable energy resources for electricity production there is need to develop a refrigeration system which is either independent of non renewable energy or requires a very little amount of the same. So this problem attracted the researcher towards development of the vapour absorption system, because it is environment and eco friendly and can use low grade energy such as solar energy, waste energy etc. besides of many advantages the absorption system has coefficient of performance less then unity. To be served by its advantages efficiently, in recent years, research has been devoted to improvement of the performance of vapour absorption system. In this paper a number of researches on working fluid are discussed.
