Adsorption Cooling with MOF-303: Modeling from Experimentally Measured Properties — SCP to 970 W/kg (Ben-Mansour & Abu El-Maaty, Results in Engineering 2025)

confidence: medium

Source: Results in Engineering (2025), open access; abstract reconstructed via OpenAlex (publisher bot-block). Credibility: Medium-high — peer-reviewed, experimentally-grounded modeling; not hardware.

Numbers

  • MOF-303 uptake ≈ 7× silica gel; measured kinetics (rate + vapor diffusion).
  • COP 0.62 max (+13% over silica gel); SCP 440 → 970 W/kg over 75–90 °C drive.
  • 2.5 kg/s chilled flow: COP 0.63 AND SCP 952 W/kg — no COP/SCP trade-off at this operating point.

Handling note

Quote as “predicted from measured properties.” Cross-check against ORNL benchmarks when updating adsorption-performance — the wiki’s typical-SCP claim needs a MOF-era qualifier, not deletion.
