Modeling and optimization of a solar adsorption cooling system under weather conditions in Algeria by Mohammed Benramdane, Adenane Ghrici, Zakaria Sari Hassoun, Mohammed El Amine Chikh

“…As a test case, five sites of the solar collector in Algeria were investigated in a representative day of April. The used model for this study is the thermodynamic .Dubinin-Astakhov (D-A) model and takes into account the variation of the solar intensity and the adsorption capacity of the selected working pairs which were: AC/methanol, Zeolite/water and composite/ethanol.The performance considered in this study was the system coefficient of performance COP.The pressure-temperature-concentration (P-T-X) diagram of the selected pairs is presented for a temperature range from 27˚C to 127˚C and an adsorption process pressure of 2 bars.The maximum adsorption capacity was found to be 0.31, 0.25 and 0.62 kg of adsorbate/kg of adsorbent, respectively for the selected working pairs. …”
