Coabsorbent Cycles

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Coabsorbent and Thermal Recovery Compression Heat Pumping Technologies

Part of the book series: Heat and Mass Transfer ((HMT))

Abstract

The coabsorbent cycles have been disclosed recently by their author in published works on heat pumping and power applications (Staicovici 2006a–2013). In the following chapters, the theoretical research laying down the basis of coabsorbent technology is presented, including the nontruncated and truncated coabsorbent cycles, the theory of truncation, the cooling and heating fractals, the truncation columns and column cycles, the coabsorbent cycles ideal COP estimate, the new cycles with pressure and concentration stages and the multi-effect cycles transposition into the coabsorbent technology.
