Abstract
<p>Air conditioning (AC) is one of the most building’s energy consumer, included in building of Engineering Physisc’s Departement, Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM). The declining of fossil fuel reserves and the increasing effects of global warming, forcing the world to switch to renewable energy sources. This paper discusses the design of solar absorption cooling system to replace conventional AC in seven lecture halls of Engineering Physic’s Departement, UGM. There are some steps that have been done to design the solar absorption cooling, i.e. do a study of the potential availability of solar energy, calculate the cooling loads, analyze the thermodynamic process of the system, determine the type of collector to be used and calculate area of solar collector needed. The thermal coefficient of performance (COP) of the system designed was about 0.84 which could use some types of flat plate solar collector with each area corresponding to each efficiency values. </p><p><strong>Keyword</strong> : Air conditioning; global warming; solar absorption cooling; solar collector</p>
