Coabsorbent heat pumps for the future-news-119

Jun. 27, 2007 – Based on the coabsorbent cycles, recently introduced by the author, a particular new technology can be developed for extremely efficient and feasible heat pumping applications. The paper presents model results of residential and district ammonia/water heating applications for coabsorbent hybrid and absorption heat pumps, supplied by different winter and summer heating and cooling pairs of sources.

Among these applications, authors proposal of coupling the coabsorbent heat pumping plants with thermal power stations, is one of the most important, for effective district heating (besides thermofication) and/or cooling, and power plant global efficiency increase up to 90 percent.
