compressors

Daikin Applied of Minneapolis, Minn, a fortune 1000 company and the largest heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC), and refrigeration company in the world developed a new, ultra-efficient compressor design potentially capable of achieving multimillion dollar performance gains by using TURBOdesign Suite. Turbomachinery design engineers and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) worked to achieve higher performance levels to meet U.S.

Design of High-Efficiency Compressors with Low GWP Refrigerants

Refrigerants are used in many applications such as stationary and mobile air conditioning and refrigeration systems. A commonly used refrigerant such as R134a has a low Ozone Depleting Potential (ODP) but relatively high Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 1400. In recent years there has been substantial growth in refrigerant used for cooling applications.
