S. Aphornratana et Iw. Eames, THERMODYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF ABSORPTION-REFRIGERATION CYCLES USING THE 2ND LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS METHOD, International journal of refrigeration, 18(4), 1995, pp. 244-252
The paper provides an easy to follow description of the second law (of
thermodynamics) method as applied to a single-effect absorption refri
gerator cycle. Results are presented in a novel graphical format, whic
h aids insight and understanding of those factors that most affect the
performance of absorption refrigerators, and which in turn provides s
trong indicators for the direction of future research. A novel method
of calculating the entropy of lithium bromide solutions is offered.
