=== Absorption refrigeration === In the early years of the twentieth century, the [[Heat pump and refrigeration cycle#Vapor absorption cycle|vapor absorption cycle]] using water-ammonia systems was popular and widely used, but after the development of the vapor compression cycle it lost much of its importance because of its low [[coefficient of performance]] (about one fifth of that of the vapor compression cycle).
