Model of the steady-state performance of an absorption heat pump
Abstract
A mathematical model of the steady-state performance of an absorption heat pump is described. The model is compared with experimental data from a residential-sized water chiller. It is also used to determine the sensitivity of the heat pump performance to its design variables.
