A comprehensive, multi-objective optimization of solar-powered

Combining multi-effect absorption chillers, which have higher COP levels than that of single-effect chillers, with solar thermal collectors can potentially lead to a smaller size of the solar field, meaning less solar-derived heat is required to generate a given amount of cooling [24], [25]. However, such systems require high driving temperatures – temperatures which can
