A modular simulation program of absorption heat pumps, refrigerators and air conditioners is developed under MATHEMATICA . The modular approach is an easier way to simulate various complex configurations. A comparative study between the simulator’s results—temperatures, pressures, refrigerant concentrations, heat duties, flow rates, overall heat transfer parameters and coefficient of performance (COP)—and experimental measurements shows a favorable agreement. The usefulness of the present program in performance analysis of thermodynamic cycles is thus established.
