Characterization of Zeolite-Based Coatings for Adsorption Heat Pumps

Part of the book series: SpringerBriefs in Applied Sciences and Technology ((BRIEFSAPPLSCIENCES))

Abstract

As described in Chap. 1, one of the major adsorber heat exchanger design requirements is the reduction of the ratio between the heat capacity of the adsorber heat exchanger material as well as its heat transfer medium’s holdup and the heat capacity of the applied adsorbent. This results in enhancing the coefficient of performance of the adsorption heat pump and increases the obtainable specific heating or cooling power.
