Thermodynamic design data for absorption heat pump systems operating on water-lithium bromide: Part III—Simultaneous cooling and heating

Abstract The free choice of operating temperatures in absorption systems is limited by the Gibbs phase rule and the thermodynamic properties of the working pair. Tables of possible combinations of operating temperatures and concentrations, including flow ratios, Carnot coefficients of performance and enthalpy based coefficients of performance have been presented for water-lithium bromide absorption systems for cooling and heating. The interactions of operating temperatures have been illustrated graphically.
