What is it about?

the autonomous operations both of a solar desiccant system (DEC) and an absorption refrigerant chillers powered by direct-flow vacuum-tube collectors are investigated.

Why is it important?

Contribute to give standardised procedures for the design and sizing of solar cooling systems in order to reduce costs, installation mistakes and operation faults

Perspectives

The replacement of compressor cooling systems by solar cooling systems may contribute to replacement of fossil fuel demand by solar energy and by this, contributing to the European policy targets on the increased use of renewable energies.
