The Magnetic Field

Absorber is a key component of absorption refrigeration system, in which there is a complicated heat and mass transfer. To improve the performance of absorber, the magnetic field was used as a enhancing way, the experiments of NH3/H2O bubble absorption in magnetic field were carried out. The results showed that the NH3/H2O bubble absorption can be strengthened by the magnetic field. Both AR(absorption rate) and EAR(effective absorption ratio) increase with the increase of magnetic intensity within the range of 0~280mT. The EAR is always higher than 1 when the external magnetic field exists. The EAR reaches the maximum 1.069 when the initial ammonia concentration is 20wt% and the magnetic intensity is 280mT. The primary strengthening mechanisms are also explained.

The effect of an external magnetic field on the hydration behavior of nanoscopic n-octane plates has been extensively investigated using molecular dynamics simulation in an isothermal-isobaric ensemble. The solute plates with different intermolecular spacing have also been considered to examine the effect of the topology of hydrophobic plates on the adsorption behavior of confined water in the presence of an external magnetic field with an intensity ranging from 0.1T to 1 T. The results demonstrate that magnetic exposure decreases the density of water for the plates with intermolecular spacing of a0 = 4 and 5 Å. This suggests that the free energy barrier for evaporation can be lowered by the applied field, and the hydrophobic solutes consisting of condensed n-octane molecules are apt to aggregate in the aqueous solution. In contrast, the magnetic field improves the dissolution or wetting of solutes comprised of loosely packed n-octane plates of a0=7Å. A magnetic-field-induced adsorption-to-desorption translation, which is in agreement with the experimental results provided by Ozeki, has also been observed for the plates with intermolecular spacing of a0 = 6 Å.
