Climate change is demonstrated through global surface temperatures increase in the last
century. To stop this phenomenon, new regulations that ban or tax greenhouse gas fluids …

Fluorocarbons have commonly been used for refrigerants, coolants, fire-suppressants,
propellants, semiconductors, fluoropolymers, and other applications since the early 20th …

This paper presents an energy performance evaluation of two low-GWP refrigerants,
R1234yf and R1234ze (E), as drop-in replacements for R134a. Tests are carried out in a …

This chapter presents a detailed theoretical study, numerical modelling and some
applications for solar heating and cooling systems focused on active and combisystems …

Usage of eco-friendly refrigerants could be an effective solution to the global warming
problem. However, a comprehensive assessment is necessary when selecting new …

Solar cooling is a good example of addressing climate changes. In this paper, we provide
overviews for working principles of solar thermally operated cooling technologies and …

Considering addressing global warming and energy crises, this work presents an alternative
cooling system based on adsorption technology. The novelty of this work lies in the …

The negative environmental impacts of burning fossil fuels have forced the energy research
community seriously to consider renewable sources, such as naturally available solar …

In this paper, a review of the performance and development of thermal-powered cooling
systems is presented. The review covers the current state of theoretical and experimental …

Chlorofluorocarbon and hydrochlorofluorocarbon refrigerants have been widely used in
traditional cooling systems. These refrigerants accelerate the depletion of the Earth's ozone …
