This PhD project was set out to improve the performance of silica gel / water adsorption cooling systems using a number of investigation tools.

In this research, a novel calorimeter consisting of an adsorber and an evaporator section has been built.

Water adsorption equilibria in nitrogen is measured over three adsorbents: silica gel 40, alumina F-200, and sorbead RF. This work concentrated on the adsorption behavior of water at low partial pressures ranging from 1 - 1000 Pa. The ...
