Fault simulation in heat pumps with propane (part 1)

Blog
Heat pumps are very important units in the current HVAC systems. They work through the process of transportation of heat energy from a source to another destination thus offering both heating and cooling options. With increasing energy efficiency standards all around the world and the increasing need for energy efficient heating and cooling systems , heat pumps have become an essential part...

Fault simulation in heat pumps with propane (part 2)

Blog
In the first part , we presented a detailed overview of heat pump operation, highlighting the impact of anomalies on system performance and energy efficiency. We developed and validated a dynamic simulation model of a domestic air-to-water heat pump, demonstrating its ability to accurately reproduce real operating conditions. This model served as a solid foundation to explore fault...

An integrated approach to reducing emissions in the food retail business

Blog
The 2015 Paris Agreement represented a crucial step in the global fight against climate change, setting the goal of limiting the rise in global average temperatures to significantly below 2 degrees Celsius, and ideally within the limit of 1.5 degrees. Consequently for businesses, reducing greenhouse gas emissions is no longer simply a social responsibility, but rather a strategic...

Integrated design: the byword for efficiency and sustainability with CO2 condensing units

Blog
An integrated approach to designing HVAC and refrigeration systems is a further step forward in the ongoing quest for energy efficiency.  This strategy allows running cost energy savings also for supermarkets by exploiting the synergies created between HVAC and refrigeration systems. For instance, the heat extracted from refrigerated counters can be recovered and used by the HVAC...

How to share know-how?

Blog
As we all know, there are currently a lot of things happening in the field of RACHP (refrigeration, air conditioning and heat pumps) all around the world. However, if we look at the European market alone, the changes are even greater, and will continue even faster with the introduction of the new F-gas rules in 2025, especially in the EU area. This is creating a lot of challenges for...

Worldwide refrigerant regulations: what are the options?

Blog
The period from 2025 to 2030 will be highly challenging regarding refrigerants, and important decisions will need to be taken, as several new regulations will apply in many countries.  In Europe, the new F-gas regulation entered into force on 11 March 2024 . New bans on the use of refrigerants for specific applications will already apply from 2025. In parallel, a proposal to restrict...

Flammable refrigerants: dilution by ventilation

Blog
Sooner or later, most workers handling equipment using refrigerants need to deal with flammability. This is one of the main challenges resulting from the global phase down of refrigerants with high global warming potential, since most of the alternatives with acceptable performance are flammable. R-290 (propane), R-32, R-454B or R-1234yf are some examples of flammable refrigerants that are...
