Abstract: A refrigerator includes a main body that has a storage chamber and a drying chamber; a thermoelectric module that includes a heat absorber and a heat dissipater; a cooling fan that circulates air in the storage chamber to the heat absorber and the storage chamber; a heat-dissipating fan that blows air to the heat dissipater; an air guide that has a passage for guiding air heated by the heat dissipater to the drying chamber; a heater that is disposed in the passage; and a damper that controls a flow of air in the passage between the heat-dissipating fan and the heater. Heat of the heat dissipater transfers to the drying chamber through the passage of the air guide and the damper, thereby being able to dry an object to be dried.

Abstract: There is disclosed an energy storage system. In particular, there is disclosed a chemisorption based energy storage system, able to provide electricity, heating or cooling depending on the desired energy output. The energy storage system includes a first chemical reactor containing a first sorbent material and a second chemical reactor containing a second sorbent material. The first and second chemical reactors are in mutual fluid connection such that a refrigerant fluid can flow from the first chemical reactor to the second chemical reactor, and from the second chemical reactor to the first chemical reactor. The first and second chemical reactors are further provided with means for putting heat in to, or taking heat out of, the first and/or the second chemical reactors. A heat exchanger module is also provided. The heat exchanger module is configured to select from a plurality of available heat sources, a heat source having the highest temperature and an expander module selectively connected to the first chemical reactor and the second chemical reactor via the heat exchanger module. The heat source is arranged to heat the refrigerant fluid prior to the refrigerant fluid passing through the expander module, and the heat exchanger is configured to recover a surplus heat from the highest temperature heat source. The expander module is configured to expand the refrigerant fluid. The means for putting heat in to, or taking heat out of, the first and/or the second chemical reactors provides a flow of refrigerant fluid between the expander module and the first and second chemical reactors, and wherein the expander module is operable to expand the refrigerant fluid to provide a variable work output depending on energy storage requirements.

Abstract: An absorption based heater is constructed on a fluid barrier heat exchanging plate such that it requires little space in a structure. The absorption based heater has a desorber, heat exchanger, and absorber sequentially placed on the fluid barrier heat exchanging plate. The vapor exchange faces of the desorber and the absorber are covered by a vapor permeable membrane that is permeable to a refrigerant vapor but impermeable to an absorbent. A process fluid flows on the side of the fluid barrier heat exchanging plate opposite the vapor exchange face through the absorber and subsequently through the heat exchanger. The absorption based heater can include a second plate with a condenser situated parallel to the fluid barrier heat exchanging plate and opposing the desorber for condensation of the refrigerant for additional heating of the process fluid.

Abstract: The invention is directed toward a vapor-liquid heat and/or mass exchange device that can be used in an integrated heat and/or mass transfer system. To achieve high heat and mass transfer rates, optimal temperature profiles, size reduction and performance increases, appropriately sized flow passages with microscale features, and countercurrent flow configurations between working fluid solution, vapor stream, and/or the coupling fluid in one or more functional sections of the desorber are implemented. In one exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a desorber section utilizes a heating fluid flowing in a generally upward direction and a concentrated solution flowing in a generally downward direction with gravity countercurrent to the rising desorbed vapor stream. To further increase the efficiency of the system, various types of column configurations can be used. Additionally, the surfaces of the microchannels can be altered to better transfer heat.
