A Study of Absorption Cooling Using Solar Radiation as A Heat Source in The Misrata Region With Varying Solar Data in Each Case

Abstract

In this paper, solar energy has been used to provide a heat source for the absorption cooling system, i.e., studying different types of complete absorption cooling cycles and different thermal cycles, schematic drawings, in addition to performance curves and their various diagrams, and studying Different equations for thermal cycles for each case and the application of a complete system with a change in solar radiation intensity and comparing the results to obtain the best performance for the system. Thermal energy (in the form of hot water) required to be supplied to the absorption cooling machine generator is 15 kilowatts for 10 hours per day and at a minimum temperature of  Degrees Celsius during the summer months during which the system can operate. The results have been obtained and compared with graphs.
