A cylindrical tube adsorber using granular silica gel as adsorbent and water as adsorbate was considered. The AC was modelled using a two-dimensional distributed parameter model implemented in previous adsorption heating and cooling studies. The performance coefficients of the resultant thermally driven cooling system were obtained for a broad range of working conditions. The thermally driven AC was found to have coefficient of performance (COP) of 0.5 and a specific cooling power (SCP) of 44 W\u00b7kg\u22121 when considering condenser, evaporator, and regeneration temperatures of 30 \u00b0C, 15 \u00b0C, and 70 \u00b0C, respectively. Moreover, the results showed that the AC could be used for refrigeration purposes at temperatures as low as 2 \u00b0C and that it could also operate during hotter days under temperatures of 42 \u00b0C.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/cleantechnol4040070","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,4]],"date-time":"2022-11-04T03:28:10Z","timestamp":1667532490000},"page":"1152-1161","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Adsorption Cooler Design, Dynamic Modeling, and Performance Analyses"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"4","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7071-2439","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jo\u00e3o M.
