Abstract
The invention relates to a sorber heat exchanger wall comprising a fluid side (2) which is delimited by a fluid wall (4) and is impinged upon by a fluid releasing or absorbing heat, and a sorption side (5) that is provided with a sorption bed (6) with a sorbent (7) which accumulates a sorbate so as to absorb or release heat. In order to create a mechanically stable sorption wall that has good heat conducting and material conveying properties, the sorption bed (6) encompasses a highly heat conducting support structure (10,21) for the sorbent (7), which is connected to the fluid wall (4) in a heat conducting manner, and a hierarchical hollow space system.
Claims28
A sorber heat exchanger wall having a fluid side to which a heat-emitting or heat-absorbing fluid is applied and which is bounded by a fluid wall, and a sorption side which has a sorption bed with a sorbent which accumulates a sorbate while absorbing or emitting heat, wherein the sorption bed comprises a supporting structure for the sorbent which is a good conductor of heat and which is connected to the fluid wall in a thermally conductive fashion.
