Thereafter, the most obvious differences of the two chiller-heater systems are compared: the solar cooling system increases coefficient of performance as high as 0.54, decreases CO2 dissemination by 829 tons in each year, and reduces energy consumption by 1552.42 MWh/Yr. Economic analysis of the two systems using break-even-point showed that the use of solar system is attractive in applications that have excess thermal energy, and the conversion of this energy to higher value energy markets is to be more profitable than absorption gas-fired system from 13th year on. © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. date: 2014 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84891918492&doi=10.4028%2fwww.scientific.net%2fAMM.465-466.327&partnerID=40&md5=8d9877541631a42b96612d9e2fd5db47 id_number: 10.4028/www.scientific.net/AMM.465-466.327 full_text_status: none publication: Applied Mechanics and Materials volume: 465-46 place_of_pub: Bangi-Putrajaya pagerange: 327-334 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9783037859339 issn: 16609336 citation: Assadi, M.K. and Armaki, H.A. and Del, M.Z.
