The unprecedented rise in cooling demand globally is a critical blind spot in sustainability
debates. We examine cooling as a system comprised of active and passive measures, with …

Solid-state magnetic cooling near room temperature has recently gained a prominent
position among alternative cooling technologies that are deemed to have higher energy …

Abstract Vapor Compression Refrigeration Systems (VCRS) are widely used to provide
cooling or freezing for domestic/office buildings, supermarkets, data centres, etc., which …

Conventional air conditioning (AC) systems provide simultaneous sensible and latent
cooling. This requires air to be cooled below its dew point temperature resulting in low …

In this paper, a new multi-objective technique has been proposed for optimal analysis of
three different candidate heat pump solutions including the vapor compression cycle (VCC) …

Air source heat pumps are an excellent electric alternative to fossil fuel based heating
systems for reducing residential greenhouse gas emissions, but common mild climate …

Kigali's amendment on Montreal Protocol has recognized the great impact of
hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) on climate change. In the European Union, the Regulation (EU) …

The research aims to transform non-environmentally friendly cities with high-energy-demand
dairy plants into sustainable dairy operations in selected cities with diverse climate. A novel …

This study investigates the performance of two novel compression absorption cascade
refrigeration systems, the Ejector Compression Absorption Cycle (ECAC) and Ejector …

Refrigeration systems currently utilize 17% of total electric energy, and this consumption is
expected to increase by more than 30% by 2050. Moreover, these systems significantly …
