Advancements in adsorption bed for cooling applications: A comprehensive review of configurations and operating parameters

Source: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S136403212401027X

Renewable & Sustainable Energy Reviews 2024 (covers 2000-2024). Paywalled (publisher 403); figures abstract-sourced. The likely provenance of the wiki’s existing “+40% SCP” and “TPMS +12.4%” figures.

Key findings

  • One-stop taxonomy of bed designs: multibed, multistage, finned, coated, metal-additive HX, aerogel, metal foam, TPMS, fluidized.
  • Metal-additive beds: +up to 40% SCP.
  • TPMS: +12.4% vs finned.
  • Metal-foam-filled beds: ~+50% adsorption rate vs foam-free.
  • Core tension: smaller particle diameter + thinner bed + higher bed conductivity raise SCP, but each trades against another.
  • Concludes the best approach combines composite adsorbent + surface coatings + bed-design modification, bridging sorbent and bed engineering.
