What is Evaluation of the Cooling Performance of a Consolidated Expanded Graphite–calcium Chloride Reactive Bed for Chemisorption Icemaker about?

The cooling performance of a consolidated composite reactive bed made from expanded graphite impregnated with CaCl 2 was experimentally assessed under different evaporation and heat sink temperatures. The compound presented a specific cooling power (SCP) higher than 1000 W kg Salt À1 at several studied conditions. The calculated coefficient of performance (COP) was about 0.35 when the amount of refrigerant consumed in the reaction was 0.80 kg kg Salt À1 . Both SCP and COP changed with the cycle time, and thus, with the degree of the reaction. The synthesis time to maximise the SCP, under any studied condition, was about 5 min, and the absorbed quantity greatly varied among the different operation conditions. When compared to the time necessary to obtain an absorbed amount of 0.80 kg kg Salt À1 , the synthesis time of 5 min could improve the SCP in about 15e68%, however, COP would be deployed in about 14e50%.
