This volume introduces the fundamentals of adsorption heat pumps, beginning with the simplest cycle and building to the most complex. Selection of adsorbents and refrigerants, design of adsorption beds and auxiliary heat exchangers, and applications for different designs are all discussed. The book educates engineering students, engineers, and researchers about an environmentally friendly alternative to vapor compression refrigeration systems promising for many applications. The authors cover thermodynamic cycles, working materials for the cycles, and aspects of designing and modeling adsorption heat pumps.
