Transport properties measurement on low GWP alternative refrigerants [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2017
New experimental data on the thermal conductivity and the viscosity of low-GWP refrigerants such as HFOs are reported in order to contribute to the development of low-GWP refrigeration/heat pump systems. Accurate data on thermodynamic and transport properties are indispensable to design and to manufacture the systems with high efficiency.

Groundwater potential mapping in semi-arid region of Northern Nigeria by integrating analytic hierarchy process and GIS

open access: yesFrontiers in Water
Groundwater resource management in drylands, characterized by climate variability and population growth, is difficult. Exploration and exploitation of groundwater, due to inadequate surface water is very costly. This study employed the analytic hierarchy

Thermal Conductivity of Low-GWP Refrigerants Modeling with Multi-Object Optimization

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2022
In this paper, the procedure of finding the coefficients of an equation to describe the thermal conductivity of refrigerants low in global warming potential (GWP) is transformed into a multi-objective optimization problem by constructing a multi ...

Thermodynamic Evaluation of Low-GWP A1 Refrigerants for Ultra-Low Temperature Refrigeration Applications

open access: yesEnergies
Slow market development has caused the lack of low-GWP A1 refrigerants for ultra-low temperature (ULT) refrigeration. Consequently, the high-GWP refrigerant R23 (GWP = 14,600) remains widely used within the ULT sector.

Performance of Low GWP Fluids in Heat Pump Systems [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Thermal Engineering, 2016
Heat pumps are increasingly gaining popularity as the world is moving towards low-carbon energy systems. Use of heat pumps for domestic heating and hot water is widely seen as a sustainable option, and a step further from conventional fuel dependence.

Thermal Performance Analysis of Low-GWP Refrigerants in Automotive Air-Conditioning System

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2020
The energy and exergy of low-global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants were investigated experimentally and theoretically. Refrigerants with a modest GWP100 of  ≤ 150 can be sufficient for bringing down emissions which were concerned for the automotive

Conservation Agriculture With Optimum Fertilizer Nitrogen Rate Reduces GWP for Rice Cultivation in Floodplain Soils

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Wetland rice cultivation contributes significantly to global warming potential (GWP), an effect which is largely attributed to emissions of methane (CH4).

Controlling quantum state transfer in spin chain with the confined field

open access: yes, 2005
As a demonstration of the spectrum-parity matching condition (SPMC) for quantum state transfer, we investigate the propagation of single-magnon state in the Heisenberg chain in the confined external tangent magnetic field analytically and numerically. It
