New research from Spain has tried to understand whether dimethyl ether and ternar mixtures of carbon dioxide, dimethyl ether and butane can represent an alternative to propane in heat pump systems. Their analysis has shown that Dimethyl ether could be the best alternative to R290, because it offers the highest performance coefficient for both cooling and heating, and avoiding problems with regard to temperature glide. May 16, 2025 Lior Kahana Researchers from Spanish Jaume I University have tested various coolants that may be alternatives to propane (R290) in existing cooling and heat pump systems. The scientists in particular investigated the…
Software company for battery analyzes software company Twaice Recently, more than 15 important product improvements unveiled. Credit: Twaice A development of the development is the ‘penalty rise assessment’, which helps operators avoid expensive fines by easier to understand and act the state of costs (SOC) problems. In comparison with often incorrect estimates of the battery management system (BMS), the new tool indicates when systems near risky thresholds work and SOC limit offers recommendations based on the behavior of the Real-World system. With these insights, operators can deliver the power more reliable when the electricity prices are highest, avoid fines and…
