Abstract:

As a new kind of porous materials,metal-organic frameworks(MOFs) have received extensive research and attention in the field of medium and low temperature adsorption refrigeration and adsorption heat storage in recent years due to their unique and adjustable pore structure,high specific surface area and high porosity.The application status of different MOFs materials in the field of adsorption heat conversion and the methods to further improve the performance of the materials from the perspectives of the adsorption capacity of MOFs to the heat transfer medium,the thermal efficiency and stability were compared and analyzed.Through the analysis,it could be found that the modification of MOFs materials and the composite with other materials were effective methods to improve the adsorption thermal storage performance,and it was also a signifiacnt direction for the development of novel MOFs materials in the future.At the same time,the efficient matching between the adsorption heat conversion system and MOFs heat storage materials was also a crucial index for the practicality of MOFs heat storage materials in the future.

Key words: MOFs, adsorption property, adsorption heat conversion, thermodynamic cycle
