ABSTRACT
ETHIOPIAN AIRPORT
An automobile air conditioning system generally works on vapor compression cycle comprising
of compressor, condenser, expansion device and evaporator. The objective of project is to use
vapor absorption system instead of vapor compression system having water as the refrigerant and
lithium bromide as absorbent. The air conditioning system compresses of a generator, a
segregator, a condenser, an evaporator, an absorber, a heat exchanger and a plurality of conducts
intercommunicated thereto between to form a circulated cooled air production system. The
improvement is characterized in utilizing the residual heat from the exhaust pipe of an engine of
an engine by helically winding a coil tube around the main portion of the exhaust pipe so that the
liquidized refrigerant water (H20) from the generator will flow through and be heated into a
mixture of the vapor and lithium bromide and enter into the segregator for a process of
separation. Then, the vapor enters into the condenser via a capillary tube and from there enters
into the evaporator for a process of vaporization. Cooled air is therefore produced and vented
into the interior of the automobile. The vapor from the evaporator will then go to the absorber
and re-enter the generator after it is mixed with lithium bromide which is returned from the
segregator after being processed there to. Whereby, a cooling circulation for this system is
therefore completed.
Previously ammonia-water was used as refrigerant, due to the drawbacks such as depletion of
ozone layer and hazardous to humans as it is a toxic gas. So water is used as a refrigerant. By
implementing this absorption system, the compressor is eliminated thereby reducing the power
consumption of the system. This results in higher overall efficiency and less fuel consumption of
the engine. Further an analysis is made between vapor compression and vapor absorption system
and various parameters are studied.
The main aim of the project is to study implementation of vapour absorption system for
automobiles and make a working model.

ETHIOPIAN AIRPORT
Addis Ababa Bole International Airport (IATA: ADD, ICAO: HAAB) based the city of Addis
Ababa, Ethiopia. It is located in the Bole area, 6 km (3.7 mi) southeast of the city centre and 65 km
(40 mi) north of Debre Zeyit. The airport was formerly known as Haile Selassie I International
Airport. It is the main hub of Ethiopian Airlines, the national airline that serves destinations in
Ethiopia and throughout the African continent, as well as nonstop service to Asia, Europe, North
America and South America. The airport is also the base of the Ethiopian Aviation Academy.[3] As
of 31 July 2013, more than 150 flights per day were departing from and arriving at the airport.

History
In 1960, Ethiopian Airlines realized the runway at Lidetta was too short for its new jet aircraft, the Boeing
720. Thus a new airport was built at Bole.
By December 1992 the new Runway and Control tower were operational. In 1997, an expansion plan was
announced for the airport. This expansion would be done in three phases:
ETHIOPIAN AIRPORT
Phase One: Add a parallel runway, and expand the old runway.
Phase Two: Construction of a brand new terminal with a large parking area, a shopping
complex and restaurants.
Phase Three: Construction of the 38m control tower (double the height of the previous
one) and installation of new electrical and fire-fighting equipment.
The expansion of the old runway, and addition of the new runway, would be capable of handling the
Boeing 747 and Airbus A340 aircraft. The new parallel would consist of five entrances and exits to the
old runway, which serve as taxiway. The proposed terminal would house a high tech security and baggage
handling system built on more than 43,000 square metres of land. The terminal will also have banks and
duty-free shops. The new control tower would be built in between Terminal 1 and Terminal 2, replacing
the old control tower.
In 2003, the new international passenger terminal was opened, making it one of Africa's largest airport
passenger terminals. The new terminal is capable to handle about 3,000 passengers an hour. This project
was worth a total of 1.05 billion birr ($130 million). At the time, the airport was one of a number of
airport terminal constructions that have been underway in Ethiopia.
In 2006, a new cargo terminal and maintenance hangar was opened five months late. This was because of
expanded specifications vastly to improve Ethiopian Airlines handling capacity and needs. The facility
can accommodate three to four aircraft at a time. This project was worth a total of 340 million birr. At the
same time, the first Airbus A380 arrived at the airport to undertake tests to validate its Engine Alliance
GP7200 engines performance from high altitude airports.
The airport is capable of accommodating the A380.
In 2010, the Ethiopian Airports Enterprise announced another expansion project worth $27.9 million at
the airport. The project will include expansion of the aircraft parking capacity from 19 to 44 in order to
accommodate heavier aircraft such as the Boeing 747 and Boeing 777. In the first phase of the project, 15
parking areas will be constructed and the remaining will be completed in the next phase. The expansion
will help in easing air traffic congestion due to increase in international travel. This would lead to the new
expansion plan in 2012.

Expansion of the passenger terminal, cargo space, hangar, the runway and construction of the hotel is
currently being completed by Chinese state-owned companies.
The expansion work is being undertaken in two phases on an 80-hectare site. The first phase of the
expansion work had enabled the airport to accommodate 15 additional aircraft, reducing traffic congestion
at the airport. The second phase of the expansion work will enable the airport to service 10 additional
aircraft. The airport will be able to service a total of 44 aircraft upon the completion of the expansion. The
airport also plans to expand the apron which purportedly can solve the persistent aircraft parking problem
it faces particularly during large international conferences.
In 2012, expansion of the new passenger terminal was announced. The outlay of this expansion was
projected at $250 million. At the same time, a new ramp was completed and can now park 24 aircraft.
Another ramp is being built for 14 more aircraft. At the same time, the first phase of expanding the
taxiways and adding more aircraft parking was completed. Eventually, this will lead to the expansion of
the terminal. This all falls in line with Ethiopian Airlines plan, "Vision 2025".
Further Developments
The current Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn has purportedly given permission to build a new
international airport in the town of Mojo, 65 kilometers south of the capital's current airport. The senior
official at the Ethiopian Airport Enterprise said that the officials of the enterprise and the Ministry of
Transport briefed the Prime Minister about the planned grand airport project. Two other sites are also
options.
Facilities
The airport has two terminals with a total of 11 gates, plus more than 30 remote aircraft parking stands
behind both Terminals. Terminal 1 has 4 gates and Terminal 2 has 7 gates. Terminal 1 serves Domestic
and Regional flights for Ethiopian Airlines, EgyptAir, Sudan Airways, and Yemenia. Terminal 2 serves
International flights and the rest of the airlines that serve the airport.

In 2012, Ethiopian Airlines opened the first phase of its Cloud Nine Business Class Lounge at Bole
International Airport. This will provide premium travelers with modern facilities and amenities. The
second phase of the lounge's construction will include a spa, private digital lockers for passengers to stow
away their bags, and a traditional Ethiopian coffee corner. Once complete, it will be three times the size of
the existing lounge. Cloud Nine features a quiet corner with sleeping cots and individual reading lamps,
massage chairs, and an internet corner with free Wi-Fi connection. The lounge is part of the airline's
"Vision 2025 Fast Growth Plan.
