The purpose of this work is to evaluate the behavior of a novel dual component: generator-condenser (GE-CO) applied to a single-stage absorption heat transformer for water desalination (SAHT-WD) by simple evaporation that operates with a LiBr-H2O mixture. The GE-CO consists of two sections located in the same shell, where desorption and condensatio...

Absorption heat pumps main consist of four heat exchangers: Generator, Absorber, Evaporator and Condenser. The heat transfer carried out in every process has a direct impact on the performance of the whole system. A weakness of heat pumps by absorption at low pressure is the leaks in the Generator because the lithium bromide-water working solution...

The most critical component of an absorption heat transformer is the absorber, by the exothermic reaction which is carried out, resulting a useful thermal energy. This article proposed a model based on improving the performance of energy for an absorber with disks of graphite during the exothermic reaction, through of an optimal strategy. Two model...

The residual heat or renewable energy can be used to activate a thermodynamic cycle inside a heat transformer by absorption (AHT), in order to obtain heat with a higher temperature in whole equipment. The performance of the AHT is mainly influenced by the absorber, since the useful heat is obtained here at different operating conditions. According...

An experimental study of an absorption heat transformer-water purification system with a single effect evaporation was carried out. The distillation process is able to recover heat for the generator; therefore, the initial operating conditions change to improve the performance of the absorption equipment. The working solution was LiBr-H2O in a conc...
