Abstract
Process for using reactions of gas/solid type in which the solid reactant contains an at least partially hydrated salt. The process makes it possible to shift the position of the equilibrium line of the reaction under consideration and to reduce its slope in a Clapeyron diagram so as to cover a wider temperature region for a limited pressure range.
Claims9
Process for producing heating or cooling comprising conducting a reversible chemical reaction between a gas and a solid reactant of the type:
- solid reactant+gas.revreaction.solid product
- to produce heat and conducting the reverse of this chemical reaction to absorb heat, thereby producing cooling, wherein said solid reactant contains a salt which is at least partially hydrated.
