Information Paper 21/00 Air as a refrigerant in air conditioning systems in buildings
Publication Year

Abstract
Air can be used in a gas cycle to produce refrigeration. Using air for mainstream refrigeration in buildings has been held back by the perception of poor energy efficiency of air cycle systems. This paper reports on the latest research into building an air cycle system for simultaneous heating and cooling in buildings.
