1 SOLAR COOLING WITH ADSORPTION CHILLER organization / project coordinator (address, telephone, ) Dr. Hans-Martin Henning, Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE, Heidenhofstr. 2, Freiburg, Germany, PHONE: ++49 (0) , FAX: ++49 (0) , hans-martin.henning@ise.fhg.de partnership (names, affiliations, contact information) Universitats-Klinik Freiburg type of project Demonstration period of project (start-end) Completed (dd/mm/year): 01 / 01 / / 09 / 2002 status of project (mainly r and d projects) Field test project objectives (mainly r and d projects) Supply of Chilled Water for a laboratory in a hospital building by using CFC-free and FC-free cooling technology, Reduction of pollutants and CO2-emissions by using solar energy to supply a thermal driven cooling process, Quantitative analysis of the adsortion technology, Quantitative analysis of the integrated solar energy system,development of a design guideline for solar assisted adsorption cooling systems project overview (deliverables, future work) Several diploma thesises, Interim reports, Final Report

2 performance (cop-graph, capacity chart etc) Figures: a) Performance of the solar collector field - daily values in August 2002 b) Performance of the Adsorption chiller - daily vaules in August 202Remarks:After an advanced configuration of the operation management the performance of the Adsorption Chiller meets COP values of 0.60 in the nominal design point.

Cooling operation is requested by the control if the room temperature of the Laboratory is higher than 23 C. Part-load operation states are preformed by a three-way-valve in the cold water cycle. Unique Cooling supply for the Laboratory; without Cooling Back-Up, Only thermal Back-up by using the district steam network, Low supply temperature ~ 65 C for the Adsorption machine, Advanced configuration of the operation managment of the adsorption unit (load controlled switching period of the internal adand desorption chamber)
