TY - JOUR AU - Pons, M. AB - Adsorption cycles with heat regeneration are a promising CFC-free alternative to compression cycles, for refrigeration or heat pumping purposes. However, the process is complex and therefore requires efficient analysis tools to understand correctly. These tools are now developed and used here for studying the phenomenon of internal adsorbate redistribution. This phenomenon takes place during the periods when the adsorber is pressurised, or depressurised, under globally isosteric conditions. It can be easily thought that internal adsorbate redistribution reduces the cycle performance. In order to avoid this reduction, the adsorbate redistribution can be reduced by implementing separate vapour compartments inside the adsorbers, which also requires the installation of additive check valves between the adsorber, condenser and evaporator.
