Abstract
In this paper, A hydrophilic dual amino-functionalized ionic liquid 3-aminopropyl tributyl phosphonium glycinate ([aP4443][Gly]) with high thermal stability was used as absorbent and the refrigerant was water for the absorption refrigeration system (ARS). The heat capacities of the system were estimated by the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) with various water mass fractions (w1) (0.004 to 0.6993) and temperatures (285 K to 365 K), and a polynomial equation on temperature and mass fraction of ionic liquid (w2) was associated. Between the experimental and estimated values, the average relative deviation (ARD) was 0.66%. The vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data of the H2O–[aP4443][Gly] binary mixture was correlated using the electrolyte nonrandom two-liquid (eNRTL) model, and the binary mixture's excess thermodynamic properties were simulated. The first and second laws of thermodynamics were used to simulate the performance of a single-effect ARS with a solution heat exchanger (SHE). The ARS simulation results show that the coefficient of performance (COP) of the system with H2O–[aP4443][Gly] as the working pair is higher than that of the conventional working pair NH3-H2O but slightly lower than that of H2O-LiBr. Furthermore, the effect of generator temperature (Tg) on ARS is investigated; simulation results show that the ARS of the novel working pair has a higher COP value at higher generator temperature, indicating that H2O–[aP4443][Gly] has the potential to be a new type of absorption refrigeration working pair.
