Abstract
An adsorption refrigeration device comprising an evaporator chamber containing a refrigerant liquid that evaporates under the effect of a depression, a connecting device and an adsorption chamber containing an adsorbent capable of fixing the vapors of the refrigerant liquid, wherein the adsorbent is constituted by one or more rigid blocks comprising a plurality of cavities, at least one part of said cavities being feeder cavities capable of diffusing vapors of refrigerant liquid on the adsorbent.
Claims36
An adsorption refrigeration device comprising an evaporator chamber containing a refrigerant liquid with its vapor that evaporates under the effect of a depression, a connecting device and an adsorption chamber under vacuum containing an adsorbent capable of fixing the vapors of the refrigerant liquid, wherein the adsorbent comprises one or more rigid blocks comprising a plurality of cavities, at least one part of said cavities being feeder cavities capable of diffusing vapors of refrigerant liquid on the adsorbent.
A method of shaping an adsorbent block for use in a refrigeration device, wherein the method comprises:
- mixing an adsorbent material with a binder to obtain a paste;
- shaping the paste to a block with cavities shaped within the block;
- and
- drying the shaped block.
A method for manufacturing an adsorption refrigeration device comprising an evaporator chamber containing a refrigerant liquid with its vapor that evaporates under the effect of a depression, a connecting device and an adsorption chamber under vacuum containing an adsorbent capable of fixing the vapors of the refrigerant liquid, wherein the adsorbent comprises one or more rigid blocks comprising a plurality of cavities, at least one part of said cavities being feeder cavities capable of diffusing vapors of refrigerant liquid on the adsorbent, wherein the method further comprises:
- shaping at least one adsorbent block, wherein shaping an adsorbent block comprises:
- mixing an adsorbent material with a binder to obtain a paste;
- shaping the paste to a block with cavities shaped in the block;
- and
- drying the shaped block;
- placing the shaped block in the adsorption chamber;
- and
- providing the connecting device between the adsorption chamber and the evaporator chamber.
