The system has been modelled and simulated numerically and the effect of changing the operating conditions has been studied. The system is driven by a low grade heat source of temperature below 80{\^A}oC and effectively exploits solar heat and/or waste sources to drive the system. Results indicate that ACP/HFC410A is able to achieve specific cooling power (SCP) and coefficient of performance (COP) values of about 0.2 kW/kg and 0.3 respectively at 350 K regeneration temperature and 387 K evaporator temperature. {\^A}{\copyright}2006-2016 Asian Research Publishing Network (ARPN).}, url = {https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84994385914&partnerID=40&md5=acf55fd14873b077a6c767390dddbb03}, issn = {18196608}, author = {Askalany, A. and Habib, K. and Ghazy, M. and Assadi, M.
