Abstract
An absorption refrigeration system uses a solution and a refrigerant contained in the solution as working mediums. The system includes (a) a generator for heating the solution to change a portion of the refrigerant into vapor; (b) a condenser communicated with the generator, for condensing refrigerant vapor coming from the generator; (c) a throttling device communicated with the condenser, for throttling condensed refrigerant coming from the condenser; (d) an evaporator communicated with said throttling device, having water circulating therewithin, capable of effecting heat transfer between the refrigerant coming from the throttling device and the circulating water; (e) an absorber communicated with the evaporator, having solution reservoired therewithin, for absorbing refrigerant coming from the evaporator by means of the reservoired solution; and (f) a heat exchanger communicated with the absorber and the generator, for performing indirect heat exchange between solution coming from the generator and solution coming from the absorber, characterized in that a solution mixing device, disposed between the heat exchanger and the generator, is provided for mixing solution leaving the g…
