Adding a compressor to basic in-counter-series triple-effect lithium bromide absorption refrigerating cycle is an effective solution to reduce the temperature of high pressure generator and slow down the corrosion situation. Exergy analysis based on thermodynamic analysis shows that the compressor placed between the low pressure generator and the condenser is the best, which help the system get the highest energy efficiency.

The application of natural refrigerant CO2 is of great significance to reduce the greenhouse effect and ozone depletion. Transcritical CO2 heat pump cycle is presently an important aspect of natural refrigerant alternatives research. In this paper, a vortex tube expansion transcritical CO2 heat pump cycle is established and compared to that of the transcritical CO2 refrigeration cycle with throttle valve. Thermodynamic analysis results indicate that the system performance of vortex tube expansion transcritical CO2 heat pump cycle is better than the transcritical CO2 heat pump cycle with throttle valve, and the COPh improvement is 5.8%~13.9% at given conditions. The gas-cooler outlet temperature has a great impact on the system performance, there is a higher COPh improvement when the cycle at lower evaporation temperature or higher gas-cooler outlet temperature.

The problem of how to detect and diagnose the tube leakage and blast through the methods of acoustics and information fusion is dealt with in this paper with the purpose of detecting the accident more accurately at its initial phase. Firstly, the acoustic monitoring method is employed since it is contactless, and then the weak leakage is detected, analyzed and diagnosed through such methods as the PCA, neural network and D-S evidence theory. Secondly, the simulation is conducted, which testifies that the diagnosis effect can be improved greatly by this way.
