Abstract

This work investigates the use of a water-ammonia double-lift absorption cycle for low temperature refrigeration driven by low-grade heat, as waste-heat or solar energy. Among the various double-lift cycles, the investigation focuses on the self-adapting two-pump series cycle, using water-ammonia as working pair.
