Development and demonstration of a prototype transcritical CO2 refrigeration system (CO2REF)

Start date: Oct 1, 2005, End date: Oct 1, 2007,

Background For the past 10 years much of the research into centralised refrigeration systems has examined so-called transcritical CO2 refrigeration systems, which use CO2 as a refrigerant instead of hydrofluorocarbon refrigerants (HFCs) and so have a reduced impact on global warming. This technology was believed to have the potential to achieve lower cost ...

Datalogging as innovative learning tool

The latest 2006 report from OECD PISA shows that young Europeans in general lack engagement and interest in science and that they do not fully understand the key part that science plays in today's societies and economies. This situation needs to be reversed. To be able to do that there is a need for making a training course that implements teaching approaches to datalogging. Our project therefore ...
