Since the hydrokinetic amplifier absorber does not discard heat, the retained heat is used to help power the system and reduce heat waste that would otherwise occur.Field of SearchEvaporation induced by sorptionWith absorption liquid circulation aided by system generated pressure Sorbent type Vapor-liquid contact in reabsorber forming liquid refrigerant Particular gas-liquid contact in sorber Internally generated pressure or capillary means moving sorption liquor Of pumping one fluid by contact or entrainment with another Specific motive fluid With cooling Successive entrainment of pumped fluid | |
