Adsorption and Cooling Systems

In this paper, we show a comparison between an absorption chiller with direct fire activated and a hybrid solar-gas absorption chiller, with a cooling capacity of 17.6 kW each (5 TR) installed in a residence located in Mexicali, BC Mexico, to do simulations were performed during the summer of the town using dynamic simulation through the environment TRNSYS 16 mainly obtained LP gas consumption and the reduction in the consumption of it to use solar energy as a heat source in the generator. To produce the required heat used eight parabolic trough collectors configuring them as follows: 4 collectors in parallel and in series 2 collectors results show a reduction in LP gas consumption of approximately 24% during the period evaluated.
