This article conducts the research on the relationship between the solar radiation and the adsorption bed temperature, the adsorption bed pressure and the system performance, and obtains that the solar radiation indirectly influences the system refrigeration performance through influencing the adsorption bed temperature and adsorption bed pressure. And in a certain range, the bigger solar radiation is, the higher adsorption bed temperature is, the system refrigeration efficiency is higher, the maximum refrigeration efficiency is 0.122.

Solar powered adsorption refrigeration system is renewable source in the future energy demands and more useful for off-grid area. In this paper a mathematical model was developed to investigate the performance of a cooling cabinet of a activated carbon-ammonia adsorption refrigeration system, and a new effective method about the refrigeration studies. A brief thermodynamic study of the cooling cabinet is carried out and the effect of operating parameters such as temperature, pressure, cooling effect of the system is numerically analyzed. The impact of solar intensity on performance of the system is significant. The cooling cabinet model is completely analysied for varies capacity and it is able to calculate the cooling cabinet coil length .The designed mathematical model is analyzed by the use of coolpack software and the results are compared with ansys software. It is observed that the system operate more efficient while maximum solar intensity and the cooling effect. Key words: Solar, Adsorption Refrigeration, Mathematical model, Analysis, Solar intensity.


Experimentations got executed for investigating influence of R12 and HR12 refrigerants on system performance evaluation in terms of COP and TR. Temperature and pressure got measured by different temperature and pressure gauges mounted at several predetermined locations. Additionally, power consumption by refrigeration system also got measured from the installed energy meter readings. Altogether, it summarizes the tabular inscriptions of the variations of COPth, COPact and COPrel with TR for R12 and HR12 refrigerants. Besides, it also demonstrates the graphical representation of the corresponding variations of COPth, COPact and COPrel with TR for R12 and HR12 refrigerants. As expected, it stands observed (from both the stated table and figure) that both COPth and COPact increase with TR, however, the COPrel decreases with the same for said R12 and HR12 refrigerants. Furthermore, the stated variations of COPth, COPact and COPrel with TR remain observed as approximately linear, independently. That’s why, both COPth and COPact stay directly proportional to TR, however, the COPrel stays inversely proportional to the same because of approximately linear relationship between the COPth, COPact and COPrel with TR, individually. Additionally, COPact decreases with the increase of Wi/p for both R12 and HR12 refrigerants. However, Qext increases with Wi/p for both R12 and HR12 refrigerants.

The study deals with the complete dynamic analysis (numerical and practical) of an existing adsorption refrigeration system. The adsorption refrigeration setup is available at Indian School of Mines (Dhanbad, India), Mechanical engineering department. The system operates with activated carbon (as an adsorbent) and methanol (as refrigerant).Numerical model is established base on energy equation of the heat transfer fluid (water) and transient heat and mass transfer equations of the adsorbent bed. The input temperature of heat source is 90?C, which is very low compared to other low-grade energy input refrigeration system. The thermo-physical properties of an adsorptive cooling system (using activated carbon?methanol pair) are considered in this model. In this analysis influence of initial bed temperature (T1) on the bed performances are analysed mathematically and experimentally. The simulation and practical results of this system show that the cycle time decreases with increase in initial bed temperature and the minimum cycle time is 10.74 hours (884 minutes for practical cycle) for initial bed temperature of 40?C. Maximum system COP and specific cooling capacity are 0.436 and 94.63 kJ/kg of adsorbent under a condenser and evaporator temperatures of 35?C and 5?C, respectively. This analysis will help to make a comparison between simulated and experimental results of a granular bed adsorption refrigeration system and also to meet positive cooling needs in off-grid electricity regions.

Refrigerant migration, which is characterized by the pressure equalization between condenser and evaporator during compressor off period, is one of the most effective cycling losses phenomena with the cause of 5–15% increasing rates in the energy consumption of a refrigeration system. In this study, an experimental facility was set up to investigate the parameters influencing refrigerant migration. A freezer cabinet with wire&tube evaporator and R600a and R134a reciprocating compressors were used. For the detailed control of various condensing parameters (condensing temperature, pressure, condensing rate in the condenser) a double-tube water-cooled condenser was designed. The condenser was constructed to allow the application of various lengths. Temperature and pressure values on various points of the system, refrigerant mass-flow rate, compressor power and consumed energy values were measured simultaneously. Condensing pressure and condensing rate in the condenser, condenser length, cycling frequency, refrigerant type used in the system, and ambient temperature were investigated as parameters influencing refrigerant migration. Refrigerant migration during the off period was blocked with a solenoid valve that is located before the inlet of the expansion device, and energy consumptions and COP values were mainly compared for the opened-valve and closed-valve conditions for each controlled experimental parameter.
