Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2006048558A1] The invention relates to a thermochemical device and method for producing very low-temperature refrigeration. The inventive device produces refrigeration whose temperature Tf<-20 °C from a heat source available at a Th temperature of 60-80 °C and a heat sink at an ambient temperature To of 10-25 °C. Said device comprises two coupled dipoles operating in an opposite-phase mode. Thermochemical phenomena in one dipole are such that said dipole can produce refrigeration at the Tf by means of a heat sink at the ambient temperature To. The thermochemical phenomena in the other dipole are selected such that said dipole is regeneratable from a heat source Th and the heat sink at the temperature To.
