solar absorption cooling
Solar absorption cooling uses sunlight to power a cooling process without needing electricity from traditional sources. It employs a special mixture that absorbs heat from the sun and transforms it into cooling energy through a passive or semi-active system. When the sunlight heats the fluid, it causes a chemical or physical change that results in cooling, similar to how a refrigeration cycle works but driven by heat instead of electricity. This method is energy-efficient and environmentally friendly, making use of renewable solar energy to keep buildings cool while reducing reliance on conventional electric-powered air conditioning.
