Popis: Adsorption systems are alternatives to compressor cooling systems. Apart from many advantages, these systems are characterized by low COP and SCP parameters. One of the most promising options to improve the performance of adsorption chillers is the replacement of the stationary bed with a fluidized one. A fluidized bed significantly increases the heat and mass transfer within the bed, enables better contact between gas and solid phases, and results in the proper mixing of adsorbent particles. This paper presents the possibility of using fluidized beds in adsorption chillers. This paper shows the results of CFD numerical modelling of the operation of a fluidized bed for an adsorption chiller and simulations of the bed temperature profiles during the adsorption and desorption processes of sorbent in a fluidized bed. This article presents an analysis of CFD simulation results for the optimal angle of heat exchangers.
