ABSORPTION REFRIGERATION AND HEAT PUMP SYSTEM

摘要

Cooling and heating system which operates on the absorption and phase change heat exchange principle. More particularly it relates to a continuous heat actuated, air cooled, double effect generator cycle, absorption system (Figures 2 and 3). In further aspects, this invention relates to a system constructed for use with an absorption refrigeration solution pair consisting of a nonvolatile absorbent, preferably sodium thiocyanate (Figure 7), and a highly volatile refrigerant, such as ammonia, which is highly soluble in the absorbent. An additive, triethylenetetramine, (Figure 10) is disclosed for inclusion in the solution pair. Also disclosed is the construction and configuration of a double effect generator and recuperator apparatus for a absorption refrigeration system (Figure 4). Included are subcompositions, subsystems and components (Figures 6, 8, and 9) that improve the overall system efficiency and reduce cost.
