Conceptual Design of an Adsorption Refrigeration System: Conceptual Design as Core of the Innovation Cell

Abstract

Research university groups, that interact with another similar groups, require support with prototypes and laboratory hardware where apply acquired knowledge, as well as to generate new knowledge since research performed. Particularly this happens in the theme of refrigeration by absorption/adsorption that had interrupted its technological trajectory in Peru. So, with the conceptual design and the prototype of refrigeration by adsorption to perform tests and research, the researchers will become more available to develop joint works and to participate in international networks of researches. For this, we will perform the conceptual design of adsorption refrigeration system — that utilizes the solar energy and the recovery of heat as a source energy — based in our model that consider the conceptual design as the core of the innovation cell, and it integrate the proposals of Porter & Newman, Tay & Gu, and Altshuller. Results of this work opening the possibility, to the research group, to perform joint projects and to grow in the theme.
