TY - Type of reference TI - Modeling and simulation of a solar absorption refrigeration machine operating with lithium chloride water coupled (H2O-LiCl) AU - Yosra Ounis AU - Abdelmajid Saoud AU - Yasmina Boukhchana AU - Ali Fellah AB - This document presents a thermodynamic analysis of a solar driven single effect lithium Chloride-water (H2O-LiCl) absorption cooling system. A flat plate collector (FPC) is used to absorb the solar radiation and serve as a source of heat necessary for the operation of the cycle. An energy and exergy-based analysis was carried out for every component of the system. This system is analyzed in respect with a broad range of performance indicators including the coefficient of performance (COP), the cooling capacity (Qevap), total and exergetic effeciency. Under steady state working conditions, the thermal and the mathematical calculation of the single effect chiller at each state point and the solar collector performance was simulated using EES tool. The final result shows that the solar absorption installation overall performance is dependent on various number of parameters (TGEN, TABS, TCOND, TEVAP). According to a parametric study it was found that the generator and evaporator temperature improves the cooling capacity and the coefficient of performance of chiller which is not the case for absorber and condenser temperatures. Furthermore, the exergy destruction is maximum at both the generator and absorber while it is less at the evaporator and condenser and approximately null at expansions valves and solution pump.
