The refrigeration industry is facing a structural transformation driven by global trade tariffs on hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs).

Driven by the pressing need for environmental responsibility and sustainability, cooling technologies are rapidly evolving.

We'll discuss the refrigeration cycle using the cycle diagram below. Component #1 is the compressor. It takes refrigerant vapor in from the low pressure side of the circuit, and discharges it at a ...

The basic refrigeration cycle applies to all air conditioning and refrigeration systems. This is the method in which refrigerant is contained and circulated through the system in order to absorb ...

A method unveiled in 2023, developed by researchers from the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and the University of ...

Sealing techniques figure heavily into what technology makes sense in different portions of the refrigeration cycle. Supermarket refrigeration systems, rooftop chillers, walk-in fast-food-restaurant ...

As the ambient temperature increases, a gas turbine’s output decreases. Since spot market prices for power invariably increase in the summer, the reduced gas turbine output at high temperatures can ...

A while back, I addressed the energy savings potentials behind a drain waste heat recovery heat exchanger. It has the potential of reducing energy consumption of residential applications by as much as ...
