Popis: The possibilities of raising the specific refrigerating capacity and the cooling temperature of an adsorption refrigerator through the phase transition of the adsorbate in low-temperature-sorbent pores have been investigated by the computer-modeling method. Using an adsorption refrigerator with busofite-based MnCl2 and BaCl2 sorbents (in the high-temperature and low-temperature adsorbers respectively) as an example, it has been shown that the operating regime of the refrigerator with adsorbate condensation and evaporation enables one to raise the specific capacity of the apparatus by 20% and to double the average cooling temperature.
