In this paper, a novel silica gel-water adsorption chiller with high effectiveness, reliability and low operating cost is developed and its performance is simulated, which has solved the problems of low efficiency under low temperature heat source and high heat capacity ratio in a conventional system and simplified the implicated structure in an improved system. The results show that this chiller has a new structure, a high cyclic efficiency and high electric COP(Coefficient Of Performance), which can be effectively driven by 60 ~85℃heat source and meet the demand of design requirements greatly.Silica gel with diameter of 0.5-1.5mm is scanned by the scanning electron microscope (SEM), so it is very crucial to investigate heat and mass transfer of adsorber. A test rig is set up to investigate sorption properties of water on silica gel and its composites blended expanded graphite or binder depending on the weighing method. The sorption capacity of water on silica gel and its composites is measured accurately under vacuum, so a new sorption equation is fitted and adopted for silica gel-water chillers manufactured in China. The equation has an accuracy better than that of Freundlich equation and D-A equation compared to experimental data. Besides, the experiment results show that using composites blended expanded graphite or binder can shorten the cyclic time and improve SCP (Specific Cooling Power).With the purpos
