N2  - The construction of a normal 100kg/day ice-maker using an ammonia-carbon absorption cycle is described. The heating medium used to drive the machine is stem. This could be derived from solar energy or combustion of biomass etc. The machine has been tested in laboratory and its heat transfer characteristics measured. A simple model, based on these results, is used to study the influence of design parameters on ice production
