ABSTRACT The aim of this study is to present a Gibbs Energy model to calculate the thermodynamic properties of LiBr-H2O solution with the concentration range from 0 to 70 LiBr wt%. and temperate from 0 to 2100C in vapour absorption refrigeration system. The enthalpy and entropy of properties are validated within deviation limits 0.3% to 2.68% and 0.54% to 3.02% respectively. The validated properties are incorporated for energy and exergy analysis of single effect absorption refrigeration cycle with LiBr-H2O as a working uid. The system analysis and result shows COP, COPrev, exergic ef ciency of absorption cycle are 0.7533, 2.1657 and 34.78% respectively. The percentage of non-dimensional exergy losses of different component of VARS at the same operating conditions are reported around 52.67% and 37.87%
