Abstract
A sorption compressor requires heat switches to thermally isolate the cells during heating, and to connect them to a heat sink during cooling. The requirements for these heat switches are discussed and related to important compressor parameters. It is shown that under certain conditions a sorption compressor can be operated without heat switches at all. Furthermore, the static heat transfer behaviour of a gas gap is modelled in detail and compared with experiments on a 300 μm gas gap. Finally, the dynamics that limit the switching speed are discussed.
