WASTE HEAT UTILIZING ABSORPTION REFRIGERATION SYSTEM FOR CLIMATE CONTROL AND/OR ELECTRIC SYSTEMS COOLING
DRIVE
February 8, 2024
The present disclosure provides absorption refrigeration systems, assemblies and methods utilizing waste heat for climate control and/or cooling (e.g., electric systems cooling; electronics cooling; motor cooling; generator cooling; oil cooling; etc.). More particularly, the present disclosure provides absorption refrigeration systems, assemblies and methods utilizing waste heat (e.g., from aviation/aerospace systems, such as hybrid-electric/electric aircraft/aerospace systems or the like) for climate control and/or cooling (e.g., electronics cooling; motor cooling; generator cooling; oil cooling; electric systems cooling for energy savings on aviation/aerospace systems, such as hybrid-electric/electric aircraft/aerospace systems). In example embodiments, the waste heat utilization provides up to 100% of the energy control system (ECS) input energy, and certain configurations allow for substantially no electric energy input (e.g., allows for gravity flow only).
