    1462-TRP, Active Mechanisms for Enhancing Heat and Mass Transfer in Sorption Fluids

    State of the Art (Background)

    Absorption systems offer the advantages of utilizing a large fraction of the source energy stream down to verylow grade energy, with environmentally benign working fluids. They are also some of the best means for

    waste heat recovery (Ryan 2004), an increasingly important challenge in todays energy scenario (Ryan 2002;USDOE 2006). The combination of efficient use of energy and the environmentally benign working fluidsminimize adverse impacts such as global warming and ozone depletion, leading to sustainable use of energy.They have long been integral parts of cogeneration systems, and are once again achieving prominence asintegrated Cooling, Heating and Power (CHP) systems (Dieckmann et al. 2005; Zogg et al. 2005) and assubsystems in distributed power generation. Being thermally activated, however, they require more heat andmass exchange components than their counterpart vapor compression systems. In some market segments,especially low-tonnage residential space-conditioning, the resulting additional capital cost has often been adeterrent in acceptance of this technology. However, with the rising energy costs, the emphasis on operatingcost advantages is going to increase, thus favoring absorption systems that run with a variety of thermalenergy sources. Implementation of absorption systems as a sustainable option for space-conditioning, waterheating and cooling, dehumidification, and power generation can benefit greatly from a better understandingof the underlying heat and mass transfer processes, and the consequent development of advanced heat and

    mass transfer components.

    A clear understanding and quantification of the coupled heat and mass transfer processes in absorption hasbeen emerging slowly. Comprehensive reviews of coupled heat and mass transfer models and experimentalstudies for Lithium Bromide/water systems appear in Killion and Garimella (2001; 2003). Computationaland experimental studies of falling films (Hu and Jacobi 1996a, 1996b; Killion and Garimella 2004a, 2004b)have begun to provide a quantitative understanding of the modes of falling-film flow (circumferential film,droplet formation, and droplet fall and impingement). The individual contributions of film and droplet modeabsorption to the total heat and mass transfer, and the effect of incomplete wetting of tubes have also beenestimated using empirical relations (Kirby and Perez-Blanco 1994; Jeong and Garimella 2002), andsubsequently used for optimization of absorber tube bundles (Jeong and Garimella 2005). New analyticalapproaches to correctly capture the governing resistances in the coupled heat and mass transfer process havealso been proposed (Islam et al. 2003; 2004). For ammonia-water systems, Perez-Blanco (1988) presented a

    simple 1-D model for a horizontal-tube, falling-film absorber, while accounting for water transport both intoand out of the solution film. Potnis et al. (1997) developed generalized models for GAX components that usedcoiled fluted tubes using the Colburn and Drew (1937) approach to model absorption as the condensation ofbinary mixtures. Abdelmessih et al. (1997) developed a model of condensation of ammonia-water mixturesflowing on the outside of vertical tubes using different assumptions for liquid-phase mass transfer includingcomplete mixing and no mixing. Takuma et al. (1993) analyzed condensation of ammonia-water mixtures onhorizontal tube bundles and concluded that the accumulation of ammonia at the interface presents animportant resistance to condensation. Attempts at obtaining compact ammonia-water absorber geometriesinclude counter-current fluted-tube absorbers (Kang and Christensen 1994, 1995; Kang et al. 1997). Vertical-tube bubble absorbers with co-current solution and vapor flow have been modeled by Herbine and Perez-Blanco (1995). Kang et al. (1998) evaluated the heat and mass transfer resistances in both the liquid andvapor regions in a countercurrent ammonia-water bubble absorber composed of a plate heat exchanger withoffset strip fin inserts. Merrill et al. (1994; 1995) used numerous passive enhancement techniques onvertical-tube bubble absorbers such as repeated roughness elements, internal spacers, and increased thermalconductivity metal to improve heat transfer, and mass transfer improvement was achieved through the use ofstatic mixers, variable cross-section flow areas, and numerous vapor injector designs. Merrill and Perez-Blanco (1997) investigated increasing the interfacial area per unit volume of vapor and liquid mixing at thevapor-liquid interface by breaking the vapor up into small bubbles and injecting them into the liquid.Miniaturization efforts for ammonia-water absorbers have included a compact absorber consisting of acorrugated and perforated fin surface placed between rectangular coolant channels (Christensen et al. 1998),and microchannel tubes arranged in square lattices for absorption and desorption (Garimella 1999; Meachamand Garimella 2002; 2003; Garimella 2004). A review of the role of surfactants in enhancing the absorptionprocess appears in Ziegler and Grossman (1996); differing explanations for the enhancement mechanisms

    have been proposed by Herold et al. (Kulankara and Herold 2000; Herold et al. 2002; Kulankara and Herold2002; Kyung and Herold 2002) and Koenig et al. (2003). One of the few studies on active enhancementinclude rotating discs housed in a hermetically sealed envelope that have demonstrated some promisingresults for the intensification of absorption processes (Aoune and Ramshaw 1999).

    The above discussion shows that one of the key hurdles in the development of efficient absorption systems is

    the mass transfer resistance encountered in the absorber. Because of the properties of LiBr/H2O solution, forexample, there is a considerable mass transfer resistance in the liquid phase that governs the absorptionprocess. Due to the coupled heat and mass transfer process, it has also been found that commonenhancement techniques such as finned and knurled tubes could sometimes increase heat transfer rates, butmight actually hinder mass transfer. Therefore, novel techniques using active enhancement for absorptionmust be developed and understood based on theoretical formulations validated by experiments.

    Justification and Value to ASHRAE

    The results from the proposed work could have a major impact on choices available for the space-conditioning and refrigeration industry, in addition to the distributed generation and CHP industry. A viablethermally activated system portfolio, in addition to vapor compression-based system, will also benefit hybridsystem and standby power operators, with selections being made based on prevailing energy costs. Compact,high efficiency components will also yield auxiliary benefits to other mass-transfer processes such as liquid

    desiccant-based systems. The inherently sustainable working fluids and the ability to use low grade thermalenergy will benefit large segments of society at large by minimizing global climate change.

    Objective

    The objective of the proposed effort is to develop active enhancement techniques for coupled heat and masstransfer processes that will serve as the basis for new absorption technology, and provide design tools forthese enhanced transport processes through experiments and modeling. Active enhancement implies theenhancement of the process through movement (agitation, rotation, vibration, etc.) of the tube surfaces, usingelectrical power input as necessary, which provides an additional crucial mixing mechanism and also maythin out the liquid layers to reduce the governing resistances. The PI will propose one promising

    implementation of an enhancement technique that involves agitation, rotation or vibration of the transfersurfaces for an absorber at typical heat pump/chiller operating conditions. Controlled heat and mass transferexperiments with and without enhancement will be conducted at representative conditions, together with

    data analysis and model and design tool development. The results will fill a critical gap in the absorptionindustry, where up to now, enhancement of absorption has only been considered using passive surfaceenhancement or through additives. There is almost no understanding of the substantial enhancement inabsorption that could be achieved through the use of electrically driven moving parts. (The requiredelectrical energy is expected to be miniscule compared to compression energy required in vapor-compressionsystems.)

    Scope
