heal.abstract	Panel cooling of buildings offers energy savings over conventional space-cooling systems. We present a procedure for calculating the performance of H2O-LiBr absorption-panel cooling systems, in which the evaporator is the panel itself. Nomographs have been developed for this approach. Under the conditions examined, the H2O-LiBr absorption unit operates with a theoretical performance coefficient of about 90% and with a practically constant specific cooling capacity of 2394 kJ/kg H2O. For common values of the parameters involved, the panel cooling power varies from 25 to 175 W/m2 and the cooling water mass-flow rate through the panel is 40-260 g/m2h. The thermal power needed to drive the system varies from 27 to 200 W/m2 and the associated temperatures from 70 to 100 °C; thus, the system may be operated on solar energy. © 1992.	en
