Designing of advanced solar absorption chilling unit
International Journal of Engineering and Technology, 2020 In emerging nations, access to electricity is inconsistent is a widespread issue. This research aimed to design an absorption chiller based on utilising heat from a solar tracker system to power a chiller. For this purpose, a solar-driven ammonia absorption chilling system is designed.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015 Many temperate and boreal tree species have a chilling requirement, that is, they need to experience cold temperatures during fall and winter to burst bud normally in the spring. Results from trials with 11 Pacific Northwest tree species are consistent

Chilling and Heat Requirements of Temperate Stone Fruit Trees (Prunus sp.)
Agronomy, 2020 Stone fruit trees of genus Prunus, like other temperate woody species, need to accumulate a cultivar-specific amount of chilling during endodormancy, and of heat during ecodormancy to flower properly in spring.

Genetic diversity in apple tree cultivars established in the Sierra de Arteaga, Coahuila, Mexico
Ecosistemas y Recursos Agropecuarios, 2018 Apple production in the Sierra de Arteaga, Coahuila is mainly based on the Golden Delicious cultivar. Production based on only a few cultivars represents a genetic risk, because if they are susceptible to a pest, disease or climate change much of this ...

Annual Chill Unit Accumulation in the U.S.
Journal of the American Pomological Society, 1982 The effectiveness of different temperatures in overcoming the winter-time physiologic state of dormancy (rest) of temperate zone fruit plants has been described (2, 3, 6). Through controlled refrigeration experiments, temperatures between 3°C and 10°C were determined to be the most chill efficient, temperatures above 15°C reversed the chilling process,

Determination of Chilling and Heat Requirement of Four Apricot Cultivars of Khorasan Razavi Province
Majallah-i ̒Ulum-i Bāghbānī, 2017 Introduction:Dormancy is one of the most important stages in the life cycle of temperate plants and plants are required to exit from it with supply of chill unit. Flowering is defined with chilling and heat requirement. Owing to low chilling requirement,

Sugar units, not chilling units, control endodormancy duration in plants – potato tuber as a case study [PDF]
, 2021 Summary Endodormancy (ED) is a crucial stage in the life cycle of many perennial plants, regulated by genetic and environmental factors. Chilling units, growth regulators, and nutrient supply are considered inducers of ED release, but the mechanism governing ED duration is poorly understood.

Parametric investigation of a chilled water district cooling unit using mono and hybrid nanofluids [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 AbstractThis study presents a novel parametric investigation into the performance of a district cooling system using mono (Al2O3 and TiO2) and hybrid (Al2O3–TiO2) nanoparticles in the base fluids of water and ethylene–glycol water (EG-water) at a 20:80 ratio.
