Numerical modelling of combined heat and mass transfer in a tubular adsorber of a solid adsorption solar refrigerator

Then, a kinetic simulation of the solar reactor is proposed and implemented, in which each tubular reaction zone is modelled by three plug-flow reactors in series

In this paper, we propose a numerical study of a new design for a solar collector to assess the influence of the design parameters (air gap thickness, collector’s length) and of

The aim of this paper is to fi nd a way to reduce convective heat transfer between the absorber and the glazing surface in order to reduce the glass cover temperature and thus

The temperature difference achieved is lower than the best that was reported by Zolpakar et al [7] for their optimized stack length (4 cm) and center position with the spiral

Abstract : We proposed a study digital, by finite difference, heat transfer in a multilayer wall (three layers) subjected to radiation condition on the inner side and taking

Furthermore, in view of potential uses as adsorbents in the thermochemical energy storage operating as open and closed storage systems, the effective thermal conductivity of
