Water solutions, or brines, of the chlorides of various inorganic elements such as calcium chloride and lithium chloride are the absorbents most frequently used in connection with air conditioning applications and de tailed attention is confined to these two in this chapter.
Nature of Absorption Process
The application consists of bringing the air-vapor stream into intimate contact with the absorbent, permissably by passing the air stream through
a finely divided spray of the brine but more generally by passing the air over a metal surface coil where the liquid absorbent presents a large surface to the air stream. The difference in vapor pressure causes some
