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 ...

People not in the refrigeration business often think that refrigeration equipment produces cold air; in fact, the equipment is actually removing heat from air and leaving what’s left — the cold. When ...

As the heart of a refrigeration system, the compressor is a vapor pump that creates the system’s required pressure differences between the low and high sides of the system. In addition, it raises the ...

The auto-cascade refrigeration system represents an innovative evolution in low-temperature and cryogenic refrigeration technology. Operating on the principle of using mixed refrigerants with distinct ...

Scientists have invented a new form of refrigeration technology called ionocaloric cooling that's purportedly safer and better for the planet. It utilizes the way energy is stored or released during ...

There’s quite a bit of progress to be made toward more sustainable cooling—and we might have just taken a significant step in the right direction. Share on Facebook (opens in a new window) Share on X ...

Adding salt to a road before a winter storm changes when ice will form. Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have applied this basic concept ...

With global energy prices soaring to record high levels and no end in sight, home appliance manufacturers struggle to find innovative and effective ways to improve energy efficiency. Among the most ...

Researchers from Qassim University in Saudi Arabia have looked at how different solar technologies could be used for refrigeration purposes. They have found that PV has the biggest potential for such ...
