A dynamic model of a single-effect absorption refrigeration cycle has been developed. Modeling of the cycle performance requires thermodynamic properties which are obtained from equations of state for refrigerant-absorbent mixtures. The transient response of the absorption refrigeration cycle is investigated using mass, momentum and energy balances for the different parts of the system. Some de...

This study presents a thermodynamic analysis of new combined power/refrigeration cycle. The cycle is comprised two innovative cycles: Kalina (KNC) and ejector refrigeration (ERC) for power production, respectively. Recovery heat process involved in the design to rise energetic exergetic efficiencies: emitted by KNC absorbed ERC order generate cooling. Effects variation operational conditions wh...

This study presents a theoretical analysis of a new combined cooling, heating, and power cycle by the novel integration of an organic Rankine cycle (ORC), an ejector refrigeration cycle (ERC), and a heat pump cycle (HPC) for producing cooling output, heating output, and power output simultaneously. Three different working fluids—namely R113, isobutane, and R141b—have been used in power, ref...

A suction line of a refrigeration cycle with vertical upward flow is one area where the refrigeration oil tends to accumulate. This paper discusses the flow characteristics of the oil film in a pipe with the vertical upward flow. Air and oil two-phase flow is used as the first step of the study and the flow pattern of the oil film in the vertical upward flow is observed. The oil film thickness ...

The effect of the internal heat exchanger (IHE) on the performance of the transcritical carbon dioxide refrigeration cycle with an expander is analyzed theoretically on the basis of the first and second laws of thermodynamics. The possible parameters affecting system efficiency such as heat rejection pressure, gas cooler outlet temperature, evaporating temperature, expander isentropic efficienc...
