Absorption heat pump (AHP) systems are cleaner and more efficient energy solutions than vapour–compression heat pump systems for heating and cooling on board naval surface ships. Thermal management is a critical requirement for naval surface ships and submarines as well as commercial vessels and land-based industrial plants. Approximately 25% of a ship's thermal load is removed through the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system. In this study, design and thermodynamic analysis of a water-lithium bromide (H2O–LiBr) AHP as an HVAC system for a naval surface ship application are presented and compared with those of a vapour–compression heat pump.
