Air, water and ground heat pumps work by taking energy from these sources and turning it into heat or cold air. They do this ...
The presence of flash-gas in the liquid lines reduces the efficiency of the refrigeration cycle. It can also lead several expansion systems to work improperly, and increase superheating at the ...
The cycle has now been "reversed" in an efficient machine for cooling things to very low temperatures In 1816 Robert Stirling invented an engine that operated by heating and cooling air in a ...
This compression creates a high temperature, high pressure gas - an essential step in the overarching refrigeration cycle. The refrigeration cycle or heat pump cycle is the model describing the ...
They do this within the ‘refrigerant cycle’ - with its four phases of evaporation, compression, condensation and expansion, the European Heat Pump Association (EPHA) explains. Essentially ...
Ideal Heating Commercial has released a new CIBSE approved CPD: Understanding refrigerants & how they affect the choice of ...
