Abstract

A Single-stage lithium bromide absorption chiller driven by solar water heater is investigated in this paper. In the recent study, system description, modeling and simulation are introduced for LiBr-H2O absorption air conditioning system. This system has been proposed for an apartment has about 30 kW cooling load. It is found that the obtained COP can reach up to 0.9 at absorber temperature 30°C and generator temperature around 70°C which can be obtained from an evacuated tube solar collector
