COOLING SYSTEM FOR HEATING ELEMENT

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve maintainability, involving repair and replacement or the like, in a cooling system using an adsorption type refrigerator. SOLUTION: A valve 10 is provided with a function of blocking a heating medium circuit. The design decreases by approximately half the conventionally necessitated number of on/off valves because an on/off valve 12 needs to be installed either on the fluid inlet side or on the fluid outlet side of the valve 10. Accordingly, the number of parts constituting the cooling system is decreased for system simplification and manufacturing cost reduction while maintainability involving an adsorption type refrigerator 4 and an outdoor heat exchanger or the like is improved. Sufficient cooling performance is secured while pump power consumption is reduced because the number of on-off valves is decreased for a reduction in pressure loss in the heating medium circuit.
