Experimental Study of Heat Pump Thermodynamic Cycles Using CO 2 Based Mixtures -Methodology and First Results

open access: yes, 2016
The aim of this work is to study heat pump cycles, using CO 2 based mixtures as working fluids. Since adding other chemicals to CO 2 moves the critical point and generally equilibrium lines, it is expected that lower operating pressures as well as higher

Review on sorption materials and technologies for heat pumps and thermal energy storage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Sorption is used for absorption/adsorption heat pumps (sorption refrigeration) and sorption for thermal energy storage (TES). This paper is the first review where the research on both applications is shown together. Sorption has advanced very much due to

Experimental Study of the effects of Throttle valve on Auto-cascade Refrigeration System [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Material, Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, 2015
The objection of this article is to optimize auto-cascade refrigeration system. This refrigeration system use multiple mixture (R22/R23/R14) as the refrigerant, which is driven by the single-stage compressor. Throttle is an important composition of auto-cascade refrigerant system, which impact on evaporation temperature and refrigeration efficiency ...

Consumption of anthropogenic foods influences the nutritional and reproductive condition of hunter‐harvested black bears

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The consumption of human food subsidies influences ecological processes, and can affect individual behavior and fitness with population level changes in abundance and distribution. American black bears Ursus americanus often consume human food subsidies, which have been correlated with increased bear body size, age‐specific fertility and mortality ...

Study of Water-cooled Auto-cascade Refrigeration Cycle with a Low Temperature of﹣60 ℃

open access: yesZhileng xuebao, 2015
A new water-cooled auto-cascade refrigeration cycle(WACR) using a binary refrigerant mixture is presented, which adopts a condenser-phase separator instead of a condenser and an evaporative separator in traditional auto-cascade refrigeration cycle.

That sinkin’ feeling: Environmentally induced distress on a disappearing island

open access: yesMedical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Residents of Tangier Island, Virginia, a subsiding island in the Chesapeake Bay, embody psychosocial dimensions of environmental change. Analysis of ethnographic data shows islanders’ experiences and articulations of anxiety, panic, and despair as “that sinkin’ feeling,” resulting from the stress of living with the long‐term threat of imminent
