Cooling storage with a resorption process. Application to a box temperature control

The resorption process is based on the use of two solid–gas reactors. It is an efficient system for cold production, in any application where the presence of a liquid phase is not desirable. Experimental results show that this system is adapted to an effective production of cold at a temperature of the order of 273 K. This result is also supported by simulation from a dynamic and simplified model. The application presented here, consists in cooling and to maintain in temperature a box. It makes it possible to propose a very simple control of cold production by control of the working pressure of one of solid–gas reactors.
