Abstract
In this article, we develop a mathematical model to simulate the worki ngs of a chemical heat pump. Simulation results are compared with expe rimental data. The simulator is able to determine the influence of dif ferent parameters associated with heat exchange or with the chemical k inetics of the reaction, and also to simulate the principal operating modes with a view to the automatization of the process.
