Abstract

A solar powered air-conditioning system designed for heating and cooling was put into operation and studies regarding the same triple effect refrigeration through solar thermal energy was carried out. Water, lithium bromide and other chemicals were used in the vapor absorption machine. Chiller having a capacity of 100kw i.e. 30TR was operated on the temperature of 210 0C obtained from solar field depending upon the solar radiations. This is the main part of the whole system because the heat produced by the solar field is used here for converting it into the chilling effect. The generator design of the machine allowed the use of hot water in the temperature range of 140-210 0C. The measured volumetric flow rate of hot water delivered by generator pump was ranging from 2 to 5.6m3/h.
