Selected Issues on CO2 as a Working Fluid in Compression Systems

This project focused solely on CO2 as a working fluid in compression systems. The main objective was to bring CO2 heat pumping technology closer to commercialisation, by addressing critical issues of both a basic and applied character. One of the activities was to compile existing information and present it as a concise state-of-the-art analysis in the final report.
