Researchers have developed a magnetocaloric heat pump that eliminates refrigerant emissions, uses less energy, and matches vapor-compression systems in weight, cost, and performance.
Technicians must be trained to handle A2L refrigerants safely, using proper equipment, following safety guidelines, and understanding risks to prevent injuries.
HVAC OEMs have building automation systems for large commercial and public buildings that increase energy efficiency. These systems can be used with equipment from different manufacturers.
As data centers deal with increasing heat output from high-performance computing, solid-state cooling may be the solution, as it promises a compact, energy-efficient, and sustainable alternative to traditional methods—delivering faster, greener, and quieter operations.
