The use of waste heat of low temperatures is an important problem from the environmental considerations. Notice that adsorption cycles have a distinct advantage over other systems of their ability to produce cooling by using low waste heat and also being absolutely benign for the environment. However the present available adsorption chillers are not suitable to adapt the systems like fuel cells with producing low waste heat less than 60℃. Hence we proposed a new adsorption refrigeration cycle combined with a mechanical booster pump which is placed in between adsorbent beds and condenser to reduce the pressure inside the adsorption bed for regeneration, or evaporator to be adsorbed at pressurized condition, that is, in order to increase an amount of driving refrigerant per cycle. This work deals with the performance testing of a cooling system based on a new adsorption cycle with a cooling capacity of 50 kW, an estimated cooling COP larger than 10.
