INTRODUCTION
4.In case of compression cycle the suction and compression work of the
refrigerant is done with the help of a compressor.
5.the same in absorption cycle is done with the help of an absorber and a
generator.
MOTIVATION
1.The absorption refrigeration system is used mainly where fuel for heating is available
but electricity is not.
2.It can be used at remote places as it can work even with a simple kerosene lamp though
in small capacity.
ADVANTAGES:
2.Smooth operation because moving parts are only in the pump, which is a small element
of the system.
3.No effect of reducing the load on performance
OBJECTIVE
TECHNICAL DETAILS
WORKING:
1.Ammonia vapour is produced in the generator at high pressure from the strong solution
of NH3 by an external heating source.
2.The water vapour carried with ammonia is removed in the rectifier and only the
dehydrated ammonia gas enters into the condenser.
3. High pressure NH3 vapour is condensed in the condenser. The cooled NH3 solution is
passed through a throttle valve and the pressure and temperature of the refrigerant are
reduced below the temperature to be maintained in the evaporator.
4. The low temperature refrigerant enters the evaporator and absorbs the required heat
from the evaporator and leaves the evaporator as saturated vapour.
5.Weak NH3 solution (aqua–ammonia) entering the absorber becomes strong solution
after absorbing NH3 vapour and then it is pumped to the generator through the heat
exchanger. The pump increases the pressure of the strong solution to generator pressure.
6.The weak high temperature ammonia solution from the generator is passed to the heat
exchanger through the throttle valve. The pressure of the liquid is reduced to the absorber
pressure by the throttle valve.

WHERE,
DISADVANTAGES:
1.These systems need to be made more compact in order to comply the problems
confronted during handling due to bulkiness.
