Performance analysis of double-effect absorption heat pump cycle using NH₃/ILs pairs

Ionic liquids (ILs), as novel absorbents, draw considerable attention for their potential roles in replacing H2O or LiBr aqueous solutions in conventional NH3/H2O or H2O/LiBr absorption chiller or heat pump cycles. In this paper, NH3/IL working pairs are proposed for implementation in parallel double effect heat pump systems. To investigate...

Screening criteria for ILs used in NH₃ based absorption heat pump systems

This paper describes a properties-optimization work for the working fluids in NH3 / ionic liquid (ILs) based single-effect absorption heat pumps. The optimum parameters of the IL can be used as criteria in screening task-specified ILs, which play the role of absorbents, in absorption heat pumps. First, a 8-parameter thermodynamic model to...
