Joule-Thomson cooling systems are used in refrigeration and liquefaction processes. There are extensive studies on Joule-Thomson cryogenic systems, but most of them coverage steady state conditions or lack from experimental data. In the present work, transient thermal behavior of Joule-Thomson cooling system including counter current helically coiled tube in tube heat exchanger, expansion valve...

Although the advantages of ground-source heat pumps over their conventional alternatives make these systems a very attractive choice for air conditioning, not only for residential buildings but increasingly also for institutional and commercial buildings, a significant barrier to wider application of this technology is a high first cost. When used in cooling-dominated buildings, ground-source h...

Abstract The paper seeks the optimal configuration of equipment capable generating heat and cold. For generation two products, for first time it is considered a coupled system pump refrigeration system. Waste from an industrial process used as source cycle. system, carbon dioxide working agent, agent R152a. In order to identify malfunctions at level each device process, exergy analysis used, wh...

Heat exchangers play significant role in refrigeration and air conditioning systems. Ongoing research aims to improve, or at least maintain, the system performance while reducing the size, weight and cost of the heat exchangers. This in turn leads to lower system refrigerant charge and reduced environmental impact. Using heat exchangers with small tube diameters (less than 5 mm) instead of larg...

The goal of this study is to improve the thermal characteristics of high power LED (light-emitting diode) package using a flat heat pipe (FHP). The heat-release characteristics of high power LED package are analyzed and a novel flat heat pipe (FHP) cooling device for high power LED is developed. The thermal capabilities, including startup performance, temperature uniformity and thermal resistan...

Capacity and efficiency of any refrigerating system diminish rapidly as the difference between the evaporating and condensing temperature is increased by reduction in the evaporator temperature. The single stage vapour compression refrigeration system is limited to an evaporator temperature of -40 C. Below temperature of -40 C the either cascade refrigeration system or multi stage vapour compre...
