This is another in a series of columns addressing advanced basics in the understanding of the refrigeration cycle. In this column and the next (on July 4), we look at components. This column will deal ...

CO2 refrigeration is moving beyond larger systems as improved CO2 scroll compressors make smaller, distributed R-744 units ...

Environmentally friendly dissolution-based method reduces temperature of water by nearly 27 K in just 20 seconds ...

THE basic technology of refrigeration has not changed much since the 19th century. Refrigerators (and their cousins, air conditioners) work by compressing a fluid and then allowing it to expand.

Removing and selling NGL from the produced gas stream is one on the ways CO 2 enhanced oil recovery projects can improve their economics. These projects involve gas recycling into the reservoir for ...

Laboratory experiments demonstrated excellent results. At room temperature, the method achieved a temperature drop of nearly ...

The compressed ethane-rich, mixed refrigerant stream is then cooled and partially condensed in the mixed refrigerant gas-gas exchanger. Cooling for this exchanger is provided by low-temperature mixed ...

A Chinese research team has broken through a long-standing bottleneck in refrigeration technology by introducing a novel ...
