Definitions

• the invention is directed to an absorption heat pump having an improved degassing range of the working medium.
• Classical heat pumps are based on a circuit of a refrigerant via an evaporator and a condenser.
• a refrigerant is vaporised and heat is withdrawn from a first medium due to the heat of vaporisation taken up by the refrigerant.
• the vaporised refrigerant is then brought to a higher pressure with a compressor and condensed in the condenser at a higher temperature than in the evaporation, resulting in the heat of vaporisation being liberated again and heat being passed to a second medium at a higher temperature level.
• the liquefied refrigerant is subsequently depressurised again to the pressure of the evaporator.
• the classical heat pumps have the disadvantage that they consume a large amount of mechanical energy for compression of the gaseous refrigerant.
• Absorption heat pumps have a reduced mechanical energy requirement.
• Absorption heat pumps have, in addition to the refrigerant, the evaporator and the condenser of a classical heat pump, a sorption medium, an absorber and a desorber.
• the absorber the vaporised refrigerant is absorbed in the sorption medium at the pressure of the evaporation and the refrigerant is subsequently desorbed again from the sorption medium in the desorber by introduction of heat at the higher pressure of the condensation.
• the compression of the liquid working medium composed of refrigerant and sorption medium requires less mechanical energy than the compression of the refrigerant vapour in a classical heat pump; the consumption of mechanical energy is replaced by the heat energy used for desorption of the refrigerant.
• the size of the circuit of sorption medium via absorber and desorber required for operation of an absorption heat pump is determined essentially by the degassing range of the working medium of the absorption heat pump; for the present purposes, the working medium is the mixture of sorption medium and refrigerant in the circuit via absorber and desorber of the absorption heat pump and the term degassing range refers to the difference in the refrigerant content between refrigerant-depleted working medium and refrigerant-rich working medium.
• a large part of the absorption heat pumps used in industry use a working medium which contains water as refrigerant and lithium bromide as sorption medium.
• this working medium has an unsatisfactory degassing range in many applications, since in the case of a working medium composed of water and lithium bromide the water concentration in the working medium must not go below from 35 to 40% by weight because otherwise crystallization of lithium bromide and thus solidification of the working medium can occur.
• WO 2005/113702 describes absorption heat pumps which use a working medium having an ionic liquid as sorption medium, with the ionic liquid preferably having unlimited miscibility with the refrigerant.
• the problem of crystallization of the sorption medium can be avoided when using ionic liquid as sorption medium, the degassing range achieved is generally no better than in the case of working media composed of water and lithium bromide, especially not for working media containing water as refrigerant.
• WO 2006/134015 describes, in Example VII a), the use of the ionic liquids 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium methylsulfonate, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium hydroxide as additives for a working medium composed of lithium bromide and water in order to reduce the crystallisation temperature of the sorption medium.
• a working medium composed of lithium bromide and water
• the proportions of water, lithium bromide and ionic liquid which should be present in the working medium are not disclosed and nothing is disclosed about the influence of the additive on the degassing range of the working medium.
• K.-S. Kim et al. propose working media composed of water, lithium bromide and the ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide, which working media contain lithium bromide and the ionic liquid in a weight ratio of 4:1 and 7:1.
• the ionic liquid acts as anticrystallisation additive which increases the solubility of lithium bromide and reduces the crystallisation temperature.
• nothing about the degassing range of the working media disclosed can be deduced from the solubilities, viscosities and surface tensions disclosed.
• a working medium comprising, as sorption medium, a lithium salt and at least one organic salt having an organic cation Q + having a molar mass of not more than 200 g/mol, where lithium salt and organic salt have the same anion having a molar mass of not more than 200 g/mol, makes it possible to achieve a higher degassing range of the working medium than when using the lithium salt or the organic salt alone.
• the invention accordingly provides an absorption heat pump comprising an absorber, a desorber, a condenser, an evaporator, a volatile refrigerant and a sorption medium comprising a lithium salt and at least one organic salt having an organic cation Q + , where lithium salt and organic salt have the same anion, the anion has a molar mass of not more than 200 g/mol and is not a halide and the organic cation Q + has a molar mass of not more than 200 g/mol.
• the absorption heat pump of the invention comprises an absorber, a desorber, a condenser, an evaporator, a volatile refrigerant and a sorption medium.
• the working medium of the absorption heat pump is a mixture of sorption medium and refrigerant.
• gaseous refrigerant is absorbed in refrigerant-depleted working medium in the absorber to give a refrigerant-rich working medium with liberation of heat of absorption.
• gaseous refrigerant is desorbed from the obtained refrigerant-rich working medium by supply of heat to give refrigerant-depleted working medium which is recirculated to the absorber.
• the gaseous refrigerant obtained in the desorber is condensed in the condenser to liberate heat of condensation, the liquid refrigerant obtained is vaporised in the evaporator, taking up heat of vaporisation, and the gaseous refrigerant obtained in the process is recirculated to the absorber.
• absorption heat pump encompasses all apparatuses by means of which heat is taken up at a low temperature level and given off again at a higher temperature level and which are driven by supply of heat to the desorber.
• the absorption heat pumps of the invention thus encompass both absorption refrigeration machines and absorption heat pumps in the narrower sense, in which absorber and evaporator are operated at a lower working pressure than desorber and condenser, and absorption heat transformers, in which absorber and evaporator are operated at a higher working pressure than desorber and condenser.
• absorption refrigeration machines the uptake of heat of vaporisation in the evaporator is used for cooling a medium.
• the heat liberated in the condenser and/or absorber is used for heating a medium.
• the heat of absorption liberated in the absorber is used for heating a medium, with the heat of absorption being obtained at a higher temperature level than the heat supplied to the desorber.
