1976年，ASHRAE TC 8.3《吸收式机器》启动了一个项目，审查ASHRAE目前在《基础知识和设备手册》中发布的溴化锂水溶液的性质，以便发布与未来手册版本中工业使用的数据一致的数据。美国所有主要的溴化锂吸收设备制造商都通过提供其性能数据参与其中。审查比较了蒸汽压和焓数据以及提交的数据来源。1977年，上述审查的结果提交给ASHRAE TC 8.3，建议使用载体杜林图和焓-浓度图作为新公布数据的基础，因为它们在考虑的条件范围内很好地代表了特性。 因此，这些图表发表在1977年的ASHRAE基础知识手册（12）中。这两个溴化锂图表的文件构成了本文的基础。引文:宾夕法尼亚州费城ASHRAE学报第85卷第1部分研讨会

In 1976 ASHRAE TC 8.3, Absorption Machines, initiated a project to review the properties of aqueous solutions of lithium bromide currently published by ASHRAE in the Fundamentals and Equipment Handbooks for the purpo~e of publishing data consistent with that used by industry in future handbook editions. All of the major manufacturers of lithium bromide absorption equipment in the United states participated by supplying their properties data. The review compared vapor pressure and enthalpy data and the sources of the data submitted.In 1977 the results of the above mentioned review were presented to ASHRAE TC 8.3 with the recommendation that the Carrier Duhring chart and enthalpy-concentration diagram be used as the basis for new published data because they gave a good representation of the properties over the range of conditions considered. Accordingly, these charts were published in the 1977 ASHRAE Handbook of Fundamentals (12). The documentation of these two lithium bromide charts form the basis of this paper.
