Abstract

An ongoing effort is invested on developing a sorption compressor to drive Joule-Thomson cryocoolers with mixed-refrigerants. In previous work a numerical model is presented for determining the adsorption of mixed-gases based on the pure component adsorption characteristics. In the present paper an experimental verification of the numerical results is described. The experimental setup is suitable for simulating the sorption cycle in a compressor. The current research is focused
on binary mixtures containing nitrogen and alkanes.
