A partial load of 3.17 kW with a COP value of 0.15 was obtained when operating the Solar-GAX system
at generator temperatures of 120°C when the design of the operating generator temperature was 200°C
with a design capacity of 10.5 kW. The system was operated with a heat source temperature of around
160°C instead of 220°C. The heat required for these conditions can be obtained by concentrating
collectors such as parabolic troughs or efficient CPC collectors. The air cooled absorption system was
operated at ambient temperatures above 30°C. Furthermore, at an ambient temperature of 28°C, 7kW
cooling capacity was achieved, with a mass flow of ammonia of 0.35 kg/min and a water flow rate of 15
kg/min, with temperatures of the diluted solution at 140 ° C and under these conditions a COP of 0.2 to
0.3 was obtained for the water side and 0.25 to 45 on the ammonia side.
