IIR-IEA Joint Workshop during The 6th IIR Conference on Thermophysical Properties and Transfer Processes of Refrigerants

Location: Virtual
Date: September 1, 2021 (TBD)
Time: 5-8 pm (CET + 1)


Title: Heat Pumps for Low GWP Refrigerants (IEA HPT Annex 54)

Theme:
Annex 54 aims at promoting the low GWP refrigerant application to accelerate phase
down of high GWP HFCs via 1) a comprehensive review of recent R&D progress on
component optimization using low-GWP refrigerants, 2) in-depth case studies of
component optimization, which can provide design guidelines and real-world experiences.

Organizer:
Prof. Yunho Hwang
The University of Maryland
ANNEX54 Operating Agent
IIR Commission B1 President
