This document describes a solar powered vapour absorption refrigeration system. The key components are an absorber, generator, solar panels, condenser, expansion valve, evaporator, battery, and fan. Solar energy is used to power the generator, which heats an ammonia-water solution to produce ammonia vapor for cooling. In the condenser, ammonia vapor condenses to a liquid and expands to provide evaporator cooling. Advantages include using renewable solar energy as the power source and requiring fewer moving parts than vapor compression. Applications include air conditioning, food processing, and commercial refrigeration. The conclusion states that solar energy proved a feasible and efficient power source for the system as a non-polluting, renewable alternative to

➢ INTRODUCTION

 A solar heat operated system.


 Quite similar to vapor compression system.
 Compressor is replaced by pump, generator and absorber.
 Ammonia is used as refrigerant i.e R-717.
 Heat in generator is supplied by solar electrical power stored
in battery.
 Condensation, expansion and evaporation processes are same
as VCR system.
➢ OBJECTIVE

 To make effective refrigeration making use of Solar


Energy.

 One time investment with minimum running expense.

 Pollution Free system.

 Refrigeration system having “Low Maintenance Cost ”.


➢ COMPONENTS
❖ ABSORBER
❖ GENERATOR
❖ SOLAR PANEL
❖ CONDENSER
❖ EXPANSION VALVE
❖ EVAPORATOR
❖ DC BATTERY
❖ FAN
➢ LAYOUT OF SOLAR
POWERED VARS
➢ PROCESS DESCRIPTION
 Ammonia solution is pumped to generator with the help of
pump.
 Ammonia solution is heated to a temperature suitable for
separating ammonia vapor from ammonia solution.
 Ammonia vapors condenses in the condenser .
 Liquid ammonia from condenser expands through expansion
valve.
 Chilled ammonia causes cooling effect in the evaporator.
 Finally ammonia is transferred to absorber and the whole
process continues.
➢ Vapor Absorption Refrigeration System
Setup
✓ ADVANTAGES OF SOLAR
ENERGY AS POWER SOURCE

 Non- polluting and clean source of energy.


 Renewable source of energy.
 Immense source of energy.
 Capacity to satisfy present and future needs.
 High intensity in summer season.
➢ NEED OF VAPOUR ABSORPTION
REFRIGERATION SYSTEM

 Uses low grade energy like heat.


Ex- exhaust from I.C engine.
 Less moving parts.
 Smooth operation.
 Can work on lower evaporator pressures, without
affecting the COP.
 Very efficient for higher load conditions.
➢ APPLICATIONS

 Air conditioning machines.


 Food Processing Industries.
 Jute Industries.
 Commercial purposes.
➢ CONCLUSION

 Using Solar Energy as the power source of the system proved


to be feasible.
 Solar Energy being a renewable source of energy proved to be
efficient as compared to using electrical energy or steam at the
same place .
 With the flow of ammonia through the system, we were able
to use it as an air conditioner and that too with the help of
renewable and non-polluting source of energy, i.e. , solar
energy.
