In this report different air-water heat pump cycles under the operating conditions of the retrofit market and in the low heating power range are examined. The already existing heat pump models show excessive power and efficiency loss at very low ambient te ...
The objectives of the present work is to theoretically and experimentally demonstrate the advantages of a two-stage cycle equipped with an economizer and single variable speed compressor for heat pumps using air as cold source. Furthermore, an efficient de ...
This paper discusses the choice and implementation of bearings for oil-free compressors where the system refrigerant is used as the lubricant in externally pressurised and hybrid bearings. The problems of oil contamination in heat pump application is descr ...
The conversion to the new alternative refrigerants caused by the greenhouse and ozone effects is now replacing nuclear reactor analysis and safety as the major driving force in two-phase heat transfer research. Extensive studies are underway on pool boilin ...
The aim of this work is to extend the investigation, to the influence of lubricating oil on R22-oil mixture in the heat pump and refrigeration system. The refrigerant-oil test bed was modified to accommodate R22-oil mixture investigation and R22-oil solubi ...
Replacing conventional boilers by air to water heat pumps represents a major market opportunity and a contribution to more sustainable heating approaches. However, such retrofit situation impose tough technical requirements which must be met in order to de ...
The substitution of old refrigerants in refrigeration systems, heat pumps and organic Rankine cycles for heat recovery, request a good knowledge of heat transfer properties of substitute fluids. The test measurmements in LENI test facility (concentric tube ...
The industrial conversion to new alternative refrigerants is now one of the major driving forces in two-phase flow and boiling heat transfer research. A state-of- the-art review is presented here to quantify what has been done so far, assess the strengths ...
Recent advances in refrigerant-oil flow boiling research are reviewed together with identification of the important trends in published experimental data, while shortcomings in data reduction methods used in most of these previous tests are also noted. New ...
The substitution of CFC refrigerants in refrigeration systems, heat pumps and organic Rankine cycles for heat recovery, requires good methods for predicting heat transfer of substitute fluids. The measurements in the LENI test facility (concentric tubes wi ...
