Recent Developments In Refrigeration And Heat Pump Technologies

Keeps up with the latest fashion in scientific books by charging about a dollar a page and not bothering with an introduction or subject index. Ten papers consider such topics as electronic controls and their part in system optimization, the contribution of compact heat exchangers to reducing capital cost, applying computational fluid dynamics to the design of refrigeration systems, fast-cycle adsorption refrigerators, the contribution of inverter-controlled circulator and pump technology to increasing the energy efficiency and reducing the environmental impact of refrigeration and heat pump systems, and innovations in vapor absorption cycles.
