A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Although a seemingly unlikely technology, using solar heat for cooling provides an important possibility for renewable air conditioning, a critical application in hot climates. The principles of the absorption process are introduced as well as different technologies and applications. The chapter provides a detailed approach to the calculation of the efficiency and output of different configurations.
