It is based on refrigerant and absorbent as the working fluid together with hydrogen as an auxiliary inert gas. To circulate the working fluid without a mechanical pump, the diffusion absorption cycle relies on a bubble pump. Experimental system was designed and operated. Its aim was to investigate the performance of a bubble pump operating with three lifting tubes. The experimental results of the system were compared to existing models. The comparison showed that there was a bad agreement between the experimental and the theoretical results.展开更多
