Technical potential for refrigeration, air conditioning and heat pump applications of air cycle systems.

Author(s) : KRUSE H., SICARS S.

Summary

Energy improvements of the standard cold-gas cycle are demonstrated and discussed. These improvements included open systems, internal heat exchangers, two-stage compression and expansion, and intelligent use of humidity in the process air. Different types of heat exchangers and machines are reviewed, and the most suitable ones for different types of processes are identified. Attention is drawn to the advantages of air-cycle systems: greater availability, less maintenance, lower weight of the total system, etc.
