ADSORPTION HEAT PUMP, ADSORPTION REFRIGERATOR, AND ADSORBER ELEMENTS THEREFOR

摘要

The invention relates to an adsorber element for a heat exchanger as well as an adsorption heat pump or adsorption refrigerator containing at least one such adsorber element. The inventive adsorber element comprises a heat conducting solid body and a sorption material for a vaporous adsorbate, which is disposed on the surface of said solid body. A fluid-tight compound film is arranged on the outer surface of the open-cell solid body, at least in the areas in which contact occurs with a heat transfer fluid. The disclosed adsorber element is configured such that heat between the open-cell solid body and the heat transfer fluid can be exchanged via the fluid-tight compound film.
