New deep-freezing process using renewable low-grade heat: From the conceptual design to experimental results

Résumé

An exergy-based analysis applied to ideal thermochemical dipoles allowed to design an original process that could use low-grade energy, produced from a thermal solar collector at around 70 °C, to provide low-temperature cold, below −23 °C, in order to store deep-frozen food. The ideal coefficient of performance (COP) of this system is 0.5 and the exergetic yield is 1. Taking into account the process enthalpies and the sensible heat of the reactants, the COPthermo is 0.17. The process functioning is described in this paper. It alternates between a regeneration mode during daytime and cold production mode during night-time. An experimental prototype was designed and built. It proved the feasibility of the concept and showed an experimental COP of about 0.06, which is similar to the up-to-date solar cooling systems, but at higher cold temperatures. The mean annual exergetic yield of the process is about 0.06.
