Performance Analysis and Optimization of a Single-Barrier Solid-State Thermionic Refrigerator With External Heat Transfer

A model of a single-barrier solid-state thermionic refrigerator with external heat transfer is established in this paper. The performance of the refrigerator is analyzed and optimized by using the combination of finite-time thermodynamics and nonequilibrium thermodynamics. The general expressions for cooling load and coefficient of performance (COP) of the refrigerator are derived. The optimum regions of cooling load and COP are obtained and the effects of the heat reservoir temperature and thermal conductance of the barrier material on the performance of the refrigerator are analyzed by detailed numerical examples. The results obtained are compared with those obtained by using traditional analysis without considering external heat transfer. For the fixed total heat transfer surface area of two heat exchangers, the ratios of the heat transfer surface area of the hot-side heat exchanger to the total heat transfer surface area of the heat exchangers are optimized for maximizing the cooling load and COP of the refrigerator, respectively. The effects of the total heat transfer surface area and the applied voltage on the optimum performance of the refrigerator are analyzed. The results obtained herein may provide some theoretical guidelines for the design and application of practical solid-state thermionic refrigerators.

Irreversible four-temperature-level absorption refrigerator

A refrigeration cycle is modeled as a demonstration of an irreversible absorption refrigeration cycle. This four-temperature-level model takes into account the heat resistance, heat leakage, and irreversibilities due to internal dissipation of the working fluid. The fundamental optimal relationships between: (1) the coefficient of performance (COP) and the cooling load; (2) the maximum COP and the corresponding cooling load; and (3) the maximum cooling load and the corresponding COP of the cycle, all coupled to constant-temperature heat reservoirs, are derived by using finite-time thermodynamics. The optimal distribution relationships of the heat-transfer surface areas are also presented. Moreover, the effects of the cycle parameters on the COP and the cooling load of the cycle are studied by detailed numerical examples. The results obtained herein are useful for optimal design and performance improvement of absorption refrigeration cycles.     

The influence of heat resistance and heat leak on the performance of a four-heat-reservoir absorption refrigerator with heat transfer law of Q∝Δ(T)

On the basis of an endoreversible absorption refrigeration cycle model with Newton's heat transfer law, an irreversible four-heat-reservoir cycle model with another linear heat transfer law of Q∝Δ(T⁻¹) is built by taking account the heat leak and heat resistance losses. The fundamental optimal relation between the coefficient of performance (COP) and the cooling load, the maximum COP and the corresponding cooling load, as well as the maximum cooling load and the corresponding COP of the cycle with another linear heat transfer law coupled to constant-temperature heat reservoirs are derived by using finite-time thermodynamics. The optimal distribution relation of the heat-transfer surface areas is also obtained. Moreover, the effects of the cycle parameters on the COP and the cooling load of the cycle are studied by detailed numerical examples. The results obtained herein are of importance to the optimal design and performance improvement of a four-heat-reservoir absorption refrigeration cycle.     

Performance analysis of a closed regenerated Brayton heat pump with internal irreversibilities

This paper analyses the performance of a real heat pump plant via methods of entropy generation minimization or finite‐time thermodynamics. The analytical relations between heating load and pressure ratio, and between coefficient of performance (COP) and pressure ratio of real closed regenerated Brayton heat pump cycles coupled to constant‐ and variable‐temperature heat reservoirs are derived. In the analysis, the irreversibilities include heat transfer‐irreversible losses in the hot‐ and cold‐side heat exchangers and the regenerator, the non‐isentropic expansion and compression losses in the compressor and expander, and the pressure drop loss in the pipe and system. The optimal performance characteristics of the cycle may be obtained by optimizing the distribution of heat conductances or heat transfer surface areas among the two heat exchangers and the regenerator, and the matching between working fluid and the heat reservoirs. The influence of the effectiveness of regenerator, the effectiveness of hot‐ and cold‐side heat exchangers, the efficiencies of the expander and compressor, the pressure recovery coefficient and the temperature of the heat reservoirs on the heating load and COP of the cycle are illustrated by numerical examples.

Ecological optimization of an irreversible Ericsson cryogenic refrigerator cycle

The ecological optimization and parametric study of an irreversible Ericsson cryogenic refrigerator cycle with finite heat capacities of external reservoirs is studied. The ecological function is defined as the cooling load minus the loss of the cooling load (the irreversibility) due to the entropy generation rate. The ecological function is optimized with respect to working fluid temperatures and the values of the cooling load, power input, the loss rate of the cooling load and COP are calculated for a typical set of operating parameters. The effects of different operating parameters on the ecological function, cooling load, the loss rate of the cooling load and COP are studied. The loss rate of the cooling load and the power input are found to be increasing functions of the cycle temperature ratio and decreasing functions of COP while the COP is found to be a decreasing function of the cycle temperature ratio. On the other hand, there exist the optimal values of the cycle temperature ratio and COP at which the ecological function and cooling load attain their maximum values. Also the ecological function and the cooling load are found to be increasing functions of the sink‐side heat capacitance rate and the effectiveness on the source‐, sink‐, and regenerative‐side heat exchangers while the decreasing functions of the source‐side heat capacitance rate.

The influences of pressure ratio, the total heat-exchanger inventory, the efficiencies of the compressor and expander, the thermal capacity rate of the working fluid and the ratio of the thermal-capacity rates of the heat reservoirs on the performance of the cycle are shown by numerical examples. The results obtained provide guidances for the design of practical air-refrigeration plants.

Optimal performance of an irreversible absorption refrigerator

On the basis of endoreversible absorption refrigeration cycle model with the sole irreversibility of heat transfer between the working fluid and the heat reservoirs, an irreversible model of absorption refrigeration cycle with heat transfer law of q∝Δ(T⁻¹), which includes the heat leak from the heat sink to the cooled space and irreversibilities due to the internal dissipation of the working fluid besides the finite-rate heat transfer between the working fluid and the external heat reservoirs, is established and used to derive the relation between the optimal coefficient of performance and the cooling load and the optimal distribution of the heat-transfer surface areas of the heat exchangers. The practical optimal regions of the cycle are determined and new bounds of the primary performance parameters are given. A numerical example is provided to illustrate the performance characteristic of endoreversible and irreversible cycles.
