RATHNASAMY 2 1 Research Scholar, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Annamalai University, Tamil Nadu, India 2 Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Annamalai University, Tamil Nadu, India ABSTRACT Cooling systems are transforming into an indispensable part of our life with rapid increase in global warming and ozone layer depletion. Solar-powered adsorption cooling system is real and exciting alternative in future and finds more suitable in remote off-grid areas. In this paper describes a new perspective about adsorption refrigeration studies, a brief thermodynamic study of the system is carried out and effect of operating parameters such as mass concentration ratio, temperature, pressure ratio and refrigerating effect on performance of the system is numerically analyzed. The impact of mass concentration ratio on performance of the system is highly significant than the other parameters considered for simulation. Each operating conditions has a unique optimized value of maximum and minimum mass concentration ratio. Applying very old classic methods in the new software platform put forth wonderful results. Invention of Adsorption Technique is a very old classical phenomenon Application of Visual Studio Ultimate 2012 version of Dot Net services to various adsorption equations by Providing various variable data input put forth wonderful result to the modern scientific eco friendly Environment The main conclusion are that the performance of the system is very sensitive to the mass concentration ratio of adsorbent and the adsorbate with COP, are optimized based on the capacity. In this system equation are solved with micro level intervals and accurate answers were obtained. KEYWORDS: Solar, Adsorption Refrigeration, Simulation, Optimization, Concentration Ratio INTRODUCTION Energy required by the cooling system constitutes a significant role in the world. Since, International Institute of Refrigeration (IIR) has estimated that approximately 15% to 20% high grade electrical energy is used for cooling process of various applications. Nowadays innovative cooling systems are under development since the traditional cooling system consumes high grade electrical energy and also responsible for Ozone depleting carbon emissions and global warming. In preservation of vaccine and food in remote off grid areas, renewable energy can be an exciting possibility. All the above attracted several countries to setup target to increase the share of renewable energy utilization and reduce carbon emissions in cooling system. Cooling systems operated by renewable energy is a real and exciting possibility in future. Solar operated cooling system drives water as refrigerant can be a better alternative to traditional cooling system. Indian climate has an attractive potential for solar energy applications. The objective of this work is to investigate mathematically, the adsorption capacity of the adsorbate on adsorbent at various temperature and pressures for adsorption / desorption processes. The technical feasibility of solar refrigeration system has been investigated in many areas. Work operated vapor compression refrigerators powered by solar photovoltaic cells are available, but it is too expensive the efficiency of the
