Abstract
A thermodynamic analysis of single effect LiCl-H2O vapour absorption cooling system of 1 TR capacity is conducted based on first and second laws. Mathematical models derived from thermodynamics theory, are employed in engineering equation solver to perform the calculations. It is found that maximum exergy destruction in system occurs in the absorber and generator while the pump and the expansion valve have the lowest. A performance comparison between LiCl-H2O and LiBr-H2O absorption system is also evaluated under identical operating conditions. It is found that LiCl-H2O working pair performs thermodynamically better compared to LiBr-H2O in vapour absorption cooling system.
