Abstract Absorption system have been investigated for many years. However, coefficient of performance COP or heat gain factor HGF for absorption systems are significantly lower than those for conventional compression systems. This has restricted their wide application. This paper discusses the behavior of mixture NH3-H2O through of an ejector, operating in an absorption heat pump system. This combination improves the performance of conventional absorption system and with the phasing out of ozone-damaging refrigerants, absorption refrigerators, heat pumps and air-conditioning now provide a potential alternative. For the detailed calculation of the proposed system a method has been developed, which employs analytical functions describing the thermodynamic properties of die mixture. The influence of three major parameters: generator, condenser and evaporator temperature, on ejector efficiency and heat gain factor of the system is discussed. Also the maximum value of HGF was estimated by correlation of above three temperatures.

In recent years, with the continuous urban expansion, the central heating sources are commonly insufficient in the areas of Northern China. Besides, the increasing heat transfer temperature difference results in more and more exergy loss between the primary heat network and the secondary heat network. This paper introduces a new central heating system which combines the urban heat network with geothermal energy (CHSCHNGE). In this system, the absorption heat exchange unit, which is composed of an absorption heat pump and a water to water heat exchanger, is as alternative to the conventional water to water heat exchanger at the heat exchange station, and the doing work ability of the primary heat network is utilized to drive the absorption heat pump to extract the shallow geothermal energy. In this way, the heat supply ability of the system will be increased with fewer additional energy consumptions. Since the water after driving the absorption heat pump has high temperature, it can continue to heat the supply water coming from the absorption heat pump. As a result, the water of the primary heat network will be stepped cooled and the exergy loss will be reduced. In this study, the performance of the system is simulated based on the mathematical models of the heat source, the absorption heat exchange unit, the ground heat exchanger and the room. The thermodynamic analyses are performed for three systems and the energy efficiency and exergy efficiency are compared. The results show that (a) the COP of the absorption heat exchange unit is 1.25 and the heating capacity of the system increases by 25%, which can effectively reduce the requirements of central heating sources; (b) the PER of the system increases 14.4% more than that of the conventional co-generation central heating system and 54.1% more than that of the ground source heat pump system; (c) the exergy efficiency of the CHSCHNGE is 17.6% higher than that of the conventional co-generation central heating system and 45.6% higher than that of the ground source heat pump system.
