Abstract
An adsorber includes: a heat-medium pipe through which a heat medium flows; an adsorbent layer having an adsorbent that adsorbs a vapor-phase refrigerant located outside the heat-medium pipe by being cooled by the heat medium, and further desorbs the adsorbed refrigerant by being heated; and a heat-transfer member that transfers heat between the heat-medium pipe and the adsorbent. In the adsorber in which the heat-transfer member and the adsorbent are integrally formed, an adsorbent filling ratio ϕ is set at 70% or less when the adsorbent filling ratio ϕ is defined as a value obtained by dividing a filling density ρ of the adsorbent filled in the adsorbent layer by a true density ρabs of particles of the adsorbent. For example, the adsorber may be suitably used for an adsorption refrigerator.
