Compressors for commercial and industrial heat-pumps in the 100kW-load range are currentlydominated by positive displacementmachines. In the context of refrigerant phaseouts andchanging regulations, natural refrigerants are seen as a compelling alternative ...
The increasing power density in modern high-performance multi-processor system-on-chip (MPSoC) is fueling a revolution in thermal management. On the one hand, thermal phenomena are becoming a critical concern, making accurate and efficient simulation a nec ...
The present case study is multi-criteria performance analysis of EPFL’s heat pump for different working fluids. The heat pump is based on a 2-stage vapour compression cycle which is modelled using the software Belsim VALI for 7 low-GWP refrigerants. The si ...
High temperature heat pumps with heat sink temperatures of 100 to 160 °C have great application potential in the food, paper, and chemical industries for heat recovery and process heat generation in drying, sterilization, and evaporation processes. The pre ...
This master project takes part in the context of the 2050 Swiss energetic strategy. In order to reduce impacts caused by the climate change, energetic systems need to be planed and have to decrease at maximum its carbon foot print. Aiming to reach this tar ...
High temperature heat pumps (HTHP) with heat sink temperatures of 100 to 160 °C will increasingly become commercialized in the coming years, especially for industrial drying, sterilization and evaporation processes. In particular, the HFO R1336mzz(Z) and t ...

Ultra-compact and fast spinning turbomachinery is a key technology to increase performance of domestic heating applications and to address decentralization of power and heat as a consequence of the rise of renewable energy sources. Recently, a heat pump us ...
Many high power (opto-) electronic devices such as transistors, diodes, and lasers suffer from significant hot spot temperature rises due to the high heat fluxes generated in their active area, which limits their performance, reliability, and lifetime. Emp ...
