Researchers developed a device to decrease energy consumption of the vapor-compression heat pump cycle, which is commonly used in homes, businesses and vehicles for cooling and heating. The team ...
Heat pumps function similarly to refrigerators or air conditioners, which take warm air from one space and send it to another. In the winter, a heat pump transfers heat from the outdoors inside and, ...
Robert Scaringe is president of Mainstream Engineering, Rockledge, Fla. He has been involved in the development of advanced vapor-compression heat pump systems for more than 33 years. He currently has ...
Vapor compression cycles are predominantly used in air-conditioning, heat pump and refrigeration equipment. A good understanding of transient behaviors of vapor compression systems is critical to ...
Researchers in Hong Kong have developed a hybrid-energy heat pump that seamlessly combines absorption and compression cycles using crystallization-free ionic liquids, improving efficiency and ...

Everything to know about heat pump systems
If you aren’t familiar with heat pumps, there’s no time like the present to change that. California has announced it will begin phasing out gas furnaces in 2023, and because heat pumps use 50 percent ...
New solid-state air conditioners could change the way homes, apartments and office buildings are cooled, eliminating the need for bulky compressor-type air conditioners and help meet the rising demand ...
