Performance Of Solar Air-Conditioning System Using Heat Pipe Evacuated Tube Collector

This paper presents the performance of solar air conditioning system using heat pipe evacuated tube collector. The currentsolar airconditioning system is not competitive with electricity driven air conditioning system due to their high investment cost.The electricity driven chiller has higher pea...
