Parametric Study of a Single Effect Lithium Bromide-Water Absorption Chiller Powered by a Renewable Heat Source by Tawalbeh, Muhammad

“…The heat source temperature, solution heat exchanger effectiveness and the size of the absorber were shown to be key parameters for the design and operation of absorption chillers. Moreover, increasing the heat source mass flow rate has a significant impact on both cooling capacity and coefficient of performance at low values (< 10 kg/s) and unnoticeable impact at higher values (> 10 kg/s).…”

Modelling, analysis, and implementation of a switched‐inductor based DC/DC converter with reduced switch current stress by Shima Sadaf (16875999)

“…The proposed technique comes up with a low-cost design, high voltage conversion ratio with a less duty cycle value, and lower current stress without increasing the component count. This topology is basically a transformer-less design where one diode of the traditional switched inductor configuration has been replaced with a switch, which is in parallel with the existing switch, resulting in a design that can incorporate active switches with a low current rating, since the total input current is equally shared by them. …”
