Abstract
It is important to use the waste heat efficiently for energy saving. An absorption refrigerator is efficient as the thermal utilizing equipment of the waste heat. Multi-effect absorption refrigerator is efficient to the improvement of the performance, but it needs higher temperature heat source than single-effect. In order to decrease heat source temperature, a hybrid system with a steam compressor at the exit of low temp. regenerator is supposed. In this paper, we report calculated results on the performance characteristics of the hybrid-type double-effect absorption refrigerator.
