Refrigerating Effect
COP =
Work supplied to the aqua pump + Heat energy supplied to generator
=
Qe Q
= e (neglecting pump work as W p << Q g )
Wg + Q p Q g
Assumptions:
- Heat transfers are reversible.
- Thee are no other heat transfers except considered.
- Pump work, W, is neglected since it is negligible compared to heat transfer in generator, Qg.

Since the system is considered reversible, hence entropy of the system will remain
constant, i.e.,
Qg Qe Qc Qg +Qe Qe Q/ e

This cooled water is sprayed by an evaporator pump where it absorbs its latent
heat of vaporization from hot water circulated from air-conditioned space in
chilled water tubes.
During the process, the hot water gives away heat and is converted into chilled
water, thereby, produces the required refrigeration load for air-conditioning
purposes and the sprayed cool water is convened into water vapour.
This water vapour is absorbed by the strong LiBr solution sprayed in the absorber
and it is converted into weak LiBr solution.

Disadvantages:
More complicated in construction and working.
COP very low.
The major disadvantages of this type of refrigerator are that if it is spoiled
once, it cannot be repaired and has to be replaced fully.
