Abstract:
A sorption cooling exchanger module comprising:a) a plurality of fin plates having a first and second opposing sides and an adsorbent coating covering essentially the entire surface of each opposing side to form coated fin plates and spaced apart in a stacked arrangement that eliminates adsorbent bridging between all coated surfaces and contains at least 300 coated fin plates for every meter of the stacked arrangement; andb) a plurality of tubes extending through openings in the fin plates wherein the outside of said plurality of tubes directly contacts the periphery of the openings to form the sorption cooling exchanger module defining a first flow path for a heat exchange medium in said plurality of tubes and a second flow path for a refrigerant between said coated fin plates.
