ABSTRACT

This article focuses on the experimental analysis of fabricated Compact Solar Refrigeration System (CSRS) for small capacity cooling applications operating with water as refrigerant and lithium bromide as absorbent. Micro nozzles are introduced in the evaporator and in the absorber to shower the operational fluids in the system with the objective of increasing the heat transfer with effective absorption in the evaporator and absorber respectively. Modelling and performance analysis of the CSRS has done the influence of source temperatures and other operating parameters on the performance of systems fitted with micro nozzles. It appears that the coefficient of performance in CSRS has been improved from 0.3 to 0.6, since the heat transfer rate is improved in evaporator.
