Abstract:
An adsorption cooling apparatus with an intermittently heated adsorbent container containing an adsorbent that exothermically adsorbs a working medium during an adsorption phase and with addition of heat again desorbs during a subsequent desorption phase at higher temperatures and with a condenser that leads condensed working medium through a connection line to an evaporator which is in turn connected with the adsorbent through a working medium vapor line and which takes up heat from the medium to be cooled during the adsorption phase, wherein the condenser is disposed within a buffer reservoir having a reservoir medium contained therein that buffers at least a part of the condensation heat of the working medium vapor and that can again dissipate the stored heat into the surroundings even during the adsorption phase.
