Industrial cooling: chillers and evaporators?

This data-file captures the costs of industrial cooling, especially liquid cooling using commercial HVAC equipment, across heat-exchangers, cooling tower evaporators and chillers. Our base case is that removing 100MW-th of…

Air conditioning: energy demand sensitivity?

Air conditioning energy demand

…are power-grid planner. This data-file calculates how energy demand changes with cooling degree days. Against a baseline of 1,500 US Cooling Degree Days per year (in Fahrenheit terms), a good…

AirJoule: Metal Organic Framework HVAC breakthrough?

…vehicle. Typical air conditioners have a coefficient of performance (COP) of 2.5-3.5x, which means that each kWh of electricity inputs will deliver 2.5-3.5 kWh-th of cooling energy. Cooling energy, in…

Air conditioning: energy consumption?

…costs. About one-third of the total energy requirements from air conditioning are expended cooling air (specific heat capacity) and two-thirds are expended condensing water vapor (water will naturally drop out…

Ground source heat pumps: the economics?

The breakdown of heat pumps economics. The largest costs are in piping and duct work.

This data-file models heat pump economics, costs, energy savings and potential CO2 savings of a ground source heat pump (GHP), compared to traditional home heating and cooling options. A GHP…

Thermoelectrics: leading companies and products?

Thermoelectric devices convert heat directly into electricity, or conversely provide localized cooling/heating by absorbing electricity. This data-file screens leading companies in thermoelectrics, their product specifications, applications and underlying calculations for…

Shell drives LNG in transport?

Shell in driving new LNG demand

…Storage capacity is increased by providing constant and continuous vapor management, using the sub-cooling system. Weathering is prevented, by sub-cooling and recycling liquefied gas, thus preserving the composition of the…

Cool customers: AI data-centers and industrial HVAC?

…typical data-center is cooling, as explored in this 14-page report. How much does climate matter? What changes lie ahead? And which companies sell into this soon-to-double market for cooling equipment?…
