Abstract |
Energy is considered the continuous driving power for economic growth and the major requirement for technological developments. The increasing rate of population, industry, and the per capita energy consumption are the major forces that cause the increase in energy demand during the coming years. However, the conventional energy types are neither reliable nor sustainable and the world’s reserves of oil are not large enough to be dependable in the near future. As a consequence, securing sustainable and renewable resources of energy with reasonable costs and without adverse impacts on our environment are the challenge. One solution to this is the application of the adsorption refrigeration systems that are driven by either solar energy or by waste heat. In the present study we have discussed the technological development of various adsorption refrigeration cycles. Moreover, we have provided a comparative study of some important adsorption refrigeration cycles. |
