Researchers at the Hebei University of Technology in China have designed a solar photovoltaic direct-drive refrigeration system with low energy consumption for high heat-flux electronic device cooling ...

Researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences have overcome a long-standing bottleneck in refrigeration ...

A large percentage of compressor failures in low-temperature vapor-compression refrigeration system applications originate from overheating. Typical compressor capacity rating data is based on an ...

A recent study has unveiled a significant advancement in refrigeration technology. This work introduces an optimized Compression-Absorption Cascade Refrigeration Cycle (CACRC) that remarkably reduces ...

A research team led by Prof. Li Bing from the Institute of Metal Research of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, together with collaborators, has overcome a longstanding bottleneck in refrigeration ...

Refrigerators are a necessary aspect of modern life, but most of them rely on a cooling mechanism called vapor compression—and the vapors involved tend to be potent greenhouse gases that can ...

BEHIND THE CURTAIN: The compressor may be “where the magic happens” within a cooling system, but a peek behind a pressure-volume diagram for a fictitious typical refrigeration cycle reveals nothing ...

One of the world's biggest draws of electricity is refrigeration and air conditioning. (Yes, it's somewhat ironic that, by trying to stay cool, we pump millions of tons of greenhouse gases into the ...
