Hydrofluoroolefins (HFOs) have been attracting increasing attention over the recent decade,
and some of them are regarded as candidates for next-generation refrigerants. In this paper …

Internal seawater systems (ISS) are critical to the proper functioning of maritime vessels. Sea
water is pumped on board ships for a broad array of uses, primarily for temperature control …

Globally, most fishing vessels still use the ozone-depleting and climate-harmful R-22 in their
freezing and refrigerated seawater (RSW) systems. However, in some regions, the natural …

A novel combined ejector-compression refrigeration system for provision rooms of merchant
ships was conceptualized and analyzed. The principle possibility of recovery of onboard low …

During the last decade, many industrial and medical applications have shown a requirement
for low-temperature-cooling usage (from− 40 to− 80° C), which cannot be efficiently obtained …

The growing intensity of international commerce and the high share of total global
greenhouse gas emissions by the maritime sector have motivated the implementation of …

The decarbonization problem of maritime transport and new restrictions on CO2 emissions
(MARPOL Annex VI Chapter 4, COM (2021) 562) have prompted the development and …

Cryogenic carbon-neutral fuels are potential alternatives as future marine fuels, releasing
waste cryogenic energy during regasification and waste thermal energy during combustion …

A marine seawater source heat pump is based on the relatively stable temperature of
seawater, and uses it as the system's cold and heat source to provide the ship with the …

Compared with the waste-to-heat and electricity-based hybrid refrigeration system, the
innovative lab-scale refrigeration system integrated with the DC and AC cooling units that …
