Abstract

This paper describes heat driven cooling technologies in combination with solar thermal energy. A short overview about solar refrigeration systems is explained with a basic analysis of thermodynamic. Furthermore, new developments of open (desiccant cooling) and closed (absorption and adsorption) cooling cycles are presented and some of the new technologies are demonstrated in more detail. Additionally, recent installations of solar-thermal of air conditioning systems are described as examples with their working performance and system description. This report also includes small scale solar thermal absorption cooling system design in the following pages. The general purpose of the design is to understand how efficiently solar cooling system generates cooling, and to reduce the footprint of systems for integration with existing and future domestic buildings.
