Solid chemisorption technology is an effective form of energy
conversion for recovering low-grade thermal energy, but limited
thermal conductivity and agglomeration phenomena greatly limit its
performance. Over the past 20 years, researchers have explored the
use of thermal conductive porous matrix to improve heat and mass
transfer performance. Their efforts have yielded composite sorption
technology, which is now extensively being used in refrigeration,
heat pumps, energy storage, and de-NOx applications. This book
reviews the latest technological advances regarding composite solid
sorbents. Various development methods are introduced and compared,
kinetic models are presented, and different cycles are analyzed.
Given its scope, the book will benefit experts involved in
developing novel materials and cycles for energy conversion, as
well as engineers working to develop effective commercialized
energy conversion systems based on solid sorption technology
Advances in Solar Heating and Cooling presents new information on
the growing concerns about climate change, the security of energy
supplies, and the ongoing interest in replacing fossil fuels with
renewable energy sources. The amount of energy used for heating and
cooling is very significant, estimated, for example, as half of
final energy consumption in Europe. Solar thermal installations
have the potential to meet a large proportion of the heating and
cooling needs of both buildings and industry and the number of
solar thermal installations is increasing rapidly. This book
provides an authoritative review of the latest research in solar
heating and cooling technologies and applications.
