Optimization of Absorption Chiller by Assisting it with Solar Thermal Energy

ABSTRACT

An air conditioning system utilizing the solar energy would always be an attractive one because of its cost effectiveness in either we are full filling our heating or cooling requirements. Many solar powered air conditioning systems are in operation in the world but its application in the Pakistan is very little even negligible. Somehow vapor compression unit are being operated with the solar energy by using photo voltaic cells in Pakistan. Whose efficiency is very low and it is also very expensive to full the cooling load of a large building with this photo voltaic cells assisted cooling system. This research paper gives us a comparison of the solar thermal technologies and the cold production technologies. And selected the most suitable one and make it applicable by converting absorption chiller (electrically driven) of 10 ton of refrigerating capacity on the solar power by keeping its COP almost the same.
