Adsorption refrigeration is an environmental benign and energy saving refrigeration technology and has a great potential for the utilization of low-grade energy
such as solar energy and industrial waste heat below 100℃.For efficient utilization of these low-temperature heat sources
a two-stage adsorption refrigeration cycle was proposed based on the adsorption refrigeration process and resorption process. Refrigeration performance of the working pair of SrCl2-NH4Cl-NH3 was tested at different evaporating and condensing temperatures.The results show that the two-stage adsorption refrigeration cycle can give the cooling output with the temperature of -25℃ when the temperature of the heat source is 70℃.The adsorption quantity of strontium chloride is 94% of the theoretical value.Under the condition of 80℃ heat source
25℃ cooling source
and -25℃ refrigerating temperature
the COP and SCP are 0.250 and 160 W·kg-1
respectively.At the same cooling and refrigerating temperatures
compared with the working pair of CaCl2-BaCl2-NH3 with the heat source temperature of 85℃
the heat source temperature in this study decreases 5℃
