Heat pumps are taking the world by storm, and for good reason. Not only are they many times more efficient than electric heaters, but they can also be used to provide cooling in the summer. Efficiency ...

Researchers in Korea have designed applied machine learning techniques to enable users to have more control of the timing of heating and cooling in air-source heat pumps. The system is based on ...

From an engineering perspective, a water tube boiler is defined by the fact that water or steam–water mixture flows inside the tubes while high-temperature flue gas passes outside the tubes. In ...

UK scientists designed a new heat pump concept that they claim could be particularly beneficial to newly developed areas or potential residential complexes. The system uses ice or ice slurry as the ...

The heat transition – moving away from natural gas towards sustainable heat sources – has far-reaching technical and societal implications. There is no one-size-fits-all solution. Every neighbourhood ...
