 abstract={The article presents a comprehensive computational fluid dynamics analysis of the adsorption and desorption cycles in adsorption refrigeration systems, focusing on the impact of the adsorbent bed geometry. The entire adsorption/desorption cycle has been modeled, allowing for the observation of events during the transitional period between processes and how these influence their progression. This approach is a novelty in the field. The developed numerical model was verified against experimental data available in the literature, demonstrating excellent convergence with the experiment, with a de-viation not exceeding 2%. The study illustrates how the geometrical parameters such as height and length of the bed affect the efficiency of the adsorption and desorption processes, emphasizing the importance of bed geometry in the adsorption of heat and mass exchangers in energy and adsorbate transfer. The research findings provide valuable insights for designing more efficient cooling devices using adsorption technology, highlighting the role of bed geometry in optimizing these systems. Modeling the entire adsorption/desorption cycle is a novelty and allows for the observation of what happens during the transitional period between processes and how this influences their progression.},
