Tribological Studies on Scuffing Due to the Influence of Carbon Dioxide Used as a Refrigerant in Compressors [PDF]
The refrigeration and air conditioning industry has expressed a great interest in the use of carbon dioxide (CO2) as a refrigerant. CO2 is anticipated to replace HFC refrigerants, which are known to have a negative effect on the environment. The reason

Gapless Superconductivity From Extremely Dilute Magnetic Disorder in 2H‐NbSe2‐xSx
We demonstrate that 2H‐NbSe2‐xSx hosts gapless superconductivity at unexpectedly low magnetic impurity concentrations. Combining STM, Bogoliubovde Gennes simulations, DFT, and quasiparticle interference, we comprehensively study the development of gapless behavior and show that SeS substitution reshapes the band structure, enhances nesting, and drives ...

Refrigeration system performance using alternative refrigerants
The European Parliament has shown its legislative capabilities by adopting a tough approach on the reduction of fluorinated gases (F-gases). The EU Regulation No 517/2014, will phase out F-gases with high global warming potential (GWP) within a well-defined step down time schedule.

The Performance of Alternative Refrigerant Gas R152a as Mobile Air Conditioning Refrigerant
In this study, the possible alternative replacement of R134a with R152 in the air conditioning (AC) system of an automobile has been investigated theoretically. The properties of the R152a is presented and compared with three different refrigerants (R134a, R22 and R12). At a constant condenser temperature,the effect of evaporator temperature (Te=-20 °C

Signatures of Edge States in Antiferromagnetic Van der Waals Josephson Junctions
ABSTRACT The combination of superconductivity and magnetic textures leads to unconventional superconducting phenomena, including new correlated and topological phases. Van der Waals (vdW) materials emerge as a versatile platform for exploring the interplay between these two competing orders.

Performance of a transcritical carbon dioxide heat pump for simultaneous refrigeration and water heating : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Technology at Massey University [PDF]
Many industrial processes require both refrigeration to less than 0°C and water heating to greater than 60°C. Traditional independent refrigeration and boiler systems have relatively poor energy efficiency, whilst conventional heat pumps can provide both

Review of experimental research on supercritical and transcritical thermodynamic cycles designed for heat recovery application [PDF]
Supercritical operation is considered a main technique to achieve higher cycle efficiency in various thermodynamic systems. The present paper is a review of experimental investigations on supercritical operation considering both heat-to-upgraded heat and

Procalcitonin is a key biomarker for bacterial infections, but conventional detection methods are often time‐consuming. Here, we present an electrochemical sensor based on highly conductive Ti3C2Tx MXene combined with PEDOT:PSS, enabling direct antibody immobilization, while a bovine serum albumin coating provides antifouling protection.
