Abstract
The ''zeolite-water'' pair adsorption process has been extensively stu died for its application in cooling system. This paper presents a comp ound zeolite-active carbon adsorbent (CZACA) which enhances the heat t ransfer in the adsorbent bed by absorbing solar energy directly and de creases the desorption cycle time in a solar cooling system. Experimen tal study of a special solar cooling tube using this adsorbent is disc ussed. The effects of some operating parameters on the system performa nce are also evaluated.
