The equilibrium adsorption capacity of water on a natural zeolite has been experimentally determined at different zeolite temperatures and water vapor pressures for use in an adsorption cooling system. The Dubinin-Astakhov adsorption equilibrium model is fitted to experimental data with an acceptable error limit. Separate correlations are obtained for adsorption and desorption processes as well as a single correlation to model both processes. The isosteric heat of adsorption of water on zeolite has been calculated using the Clausius-Clapeyron equation as a function of adsorption capacity. The cyclic adsorption capacity swing for different condenser, evaporator and adsorbent temperatures is compared with that for the following adsorbent-refrigerant pairs: activated carbon-methanol; silica gel-water; and, zeolite 13X-water. Experimental results show that the maximum adsorption capacity of natural zeolite is nearly 0.12 kg(w)/kg(ad) for zeolite temperatures and water vapor pressures in the range 40-150 degrees C and 0.87-738 kPa.

Adsorption behaviour of shale gas reservoirs
Merey, Sukru; Sınayuç, Çağlar (2018-01-01)
Experimental adsorption measurements for one shale sample were conducted at 25 degrees C, 50 degrees C and 75 degrees C up to 2,000 psia by using pure methane (CH4) and pure carbon dioxide (CO2) to understand the behaviour of CH4 and CO2 adsorption on shales. The effects of temperature and pressure on CH4 and CO2 adsorption on the shale sample were observed. When temperature decreases from 75 degrees C to 25 degrees C, the adsorption capacity increases for both CH4 and CO2 adsorption. As pressure increases,...
Numerical investigation of coupled heat and mass transfer inside the adsorbent bed of an adsorption cooling unit
Solmus, Ismail; Rees, D. Andrew S.; Yamali, Cemil; Baker, Derek Keıth; KAFTANOĞLU, BİLGİN (2012-05-01)
In this study, the influence of several design parameters on the transient distributions of temperature, pressure and amount adsorbed in the radial direction of a cylindrical adsorbent bed of an adsorption cooling unit using silica gel/water have been investigated numerically. For this purpose, a transient one-dimensional local thermal non-equilibrium model that accounts for both internal and external mass transfer resistances has been developed using the local volume averaging method. For the conditions in...
An experimental study on the performance of an adsorption cooling system and the numerical analysis of its adsorbent bed
Solmuş, İsmail; Yamalı, Cemil; Kaftanoğlu, Bilgin; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2011)
In this thesis, firstly, the equilibrium adsorption capacity of water on a natural zeolite at several zeolite temperatures and water vapor pressures has been experimentally determined for adsorption and desorption processes. Additionally, the modified Dubinin-Astakhov adsorption equilibrium model has been fitted to experimental data and separate correlations are obtained for adsorption and desorption processes as well as a single correlation to model both processes. Experimental results show that the maximu...
Performance analysis of grooved heat pipes using 3-D multi-channel thermal resistance network
Sezmen, Ramazan Aykut; Dursunkaya, Zafer; Çetin, Barbaros; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2021-9)
Heat pipes are phase change heat transfer devices that transfer high amounts of heat with low temperature differences compared to conventional cooling techniques due to their high thermal conductivity. Since heat pipes do not require any external power supply and not involve any moving parts, they are preferred for high reliability applications and in wide range of industrial applications from thermal management of electronics to space applications. Essentially, heat pipes use the advantage of occurring pha...
Parametric Study and Seasonal Simulations of a Solar Powered Adsorption Cooling System
Taylan, Onur; Baker, Derek Keıth; Kaftanoglu, Bilgin (2009-09-03)
Models of solar-thermal powered adsorption cooling systems with and without heat recovery developed in TRNSYS and results from steady-periodic and seasonal simulations are presented. A normalized model is presented and used to process the seasonal TRNSYS results to investigate the coincidence between the solar-supplied cooling power and cooling load as the relative sizes of the cooling system and storage are varied. The normalized model yields a seasonal solar fraction and seasonal loss fraction (the excess...
