Computer Modeling of a Solar Absorption System

Abstract

Using a solar lithium bromide absorption system, an analytical research will be conducted on the use of solar energy for space cooling. Following an overview of solar energy's value, accessibility, and potential uses, this section provides a description of a solar absorption machine [1-2]. This system's numerical simulation in Mat lab shows temperature shifts in the system's primary components, beginning with the collector, due to variations in the solar system's heat flow density. Only the collector and the unoccupied heat exchanger experience temperature fluctuations. When the solar heat flux is insufficient to meet the whole cooling demand, electricity must be used to supplement the system. The report concludes with a comparative analysis of the collector length and supplementary source requirements across the three cities studied.
