Abstract
In this study, a combined ejector absorption refrigeration system driven by solar energy has been designed and constructed. The effects of the main operating conditions on system performance were experimentally investigated using evacuated tube solar collectors and ammonia-water as working fluid. The major components of combined system consist of generator, rectifier, ejector, condenser, evaporator, absorber, solution heat exchanger. Experimental study was performed over a range of generator temperatures from 60 to 98°C, evaporator temperatures from 3 to 16°C, and condenser temperatures from 23 to 39°C. The results show that, the combined cycle provides potentially high COP than that of the conventional absorption machine. The maximum increase in COP is about 50% higher than the basic cycle.
