COMPENSATING FOR NEW REFRIGERANTS: Smaller-diameter tubes will be key to more compact and efficient coils for use in CO2 gas coolers like the one pictured here. June 10, 2019 Demand is changing the ...

Researchers have figured out how to keep condensed droplets from coalescing into a film, and to make the droplets jump high enough to move away from the condenser surface. Hold a cold drink on a hot ...

Declining performance of a large compressor-driven steam turbine's surface condenser at Shell Chemical LP's petrochemical complex in Norco, La., was constraining an associated process unit to a ...

A decade ago a new idea was brought into the general scientific community -- shedding water from condensers was more efficient by using surface tension to make microscopic water droplets 'jump' off ...

OPEN DOOR: A high CTOA could mean that the refrigerator or freezer is rejecting a lot of heat out of the condenser as a result of additional heat being absorbed in the evaporator, which could occur ...
