SolarFrost History

SolarFrost provides research and development (R&D) services for cooling machines powered by thermal energy, provided by solar collectors, district heating or waste heat.

SolarFrost cooling machines replace conventional air conditioning products powered by non-renewable energy sources. Our vision is to make this new technology available worldwide, to the benefit of consumers and the environment

1996 Development aid co-operation project in 1996 between Austria and Tanzania to develop a solar refrigeration system for milk

2001 Foundation of SolarFrost International Ltd. Company financed by an ecologically motivated fund from Hong Kong

2001-04 Various patents for different developments

2004 - Nomination for ”The EU Co-operationAward for Sustainable Development”

- Finalist for the World Technology Awards 2005 - New office and laboratory in Purkersdorf near Vienna

- Foundation of SolarFrost Forschung & Entwicklung GmbH

Absorption Heat Recoveryin the P-T Diagram

pureCOP > 1 is possible!

Page 10: Dr. Gerhard Kunze SolarFrost Research & Development

Conventional Ammonia Absorption hardly allows

Absorption Heat Recovery

pureCOP < 1

Bypass System with Absorption Heat Recovery

Combination of Bypass System

with Absorption heat Recovery:

Theoretical COP at heating temperature 65°C:

COP = 1,5

Expected: COP > 1,2
