Design of Absorption Refrigeration System Using Solar Energy Resource

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study aims to design an absorption refrigeration system and estimate the heat energy demand. Moreover, this paper investigates the opportunity of using alteration of energy resources such as solar energy. The trough parabolic solar collectors TPC system is suggested and analyzed as a heat energy resource. Actual data of TPC are presented in this work to evaluate the size needed to guarantee enough heat sources that is running the refrigeration system. The outcome of this calculation proved that each 1 T.R needs about 11.1 kW of heat energy. The COP of the refrigeration system is found to be about 0.313. Moreover, the TPC generates about 100 W/m2. However, the optimum TPC may generate about 380 W/m2 in Iraqi climate. This value of heat generated represents the maximum energy at clear sky. The calculations are validated based on experimental and proven data.
