Abstract

The heat and mass transfer properties of adsorbent bed is the key point to improve the efficiency of adsorption refrigeration. Optimizing the structure of the adsorbent bed can effectively improve the heat and mass transfer efficiency of the whole adsorbent bed, reduce the heat loss, and improve the cooling coefficient of performance (COP) and the refrigerating capacity (SCP) of the per unit mass adsorbent. In this paper, several new adsorbent bed types in recent years were introduced, consolidated adsorbent and coated adsorbent on the adsorbent side and new heat transfer structure on the heat exchanger side were reviewed. Finally, the future development direction and research focus for the new adsorbent bed were described.

Key words： adsorption refrigeration; heat and mass transfer; consolidated adsorbent; coated adsorbent; heat exchanger structure
