2010 -
2nd
Atelier IIF sur la Réduction de la Charge en Frigorigène
dans les Systèmes Frigorifiques
KTH, Stockholm, Sweden
June 16-17, 2010
IIR commissions involved: B1 and B2 with
D1, D2 E1 and E2
Overview
The International Institute of Refrigeration is a scientific
and technical intergovernmental organization enabling pooling of scientific and
industrial know-how in all refrigeration fields on a worldwide scale (www.iifiir.org).
The conference will be held at at the campus of the
Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), Stockholm, Sweden, on June 16-17, 2010.
Sustainable Refrigeration and Heat Pump Technology
We are pleased to inform you that the RCR 2010 will be
held in combination with the Conference: Sustainable
Refrigeration and Heat Pump Technology
(http://www.sustainablerefrigeration.org)
to be held in Stockholm, June 13 – 16, 2010.
RCR2010 will take place from June 16th to June 17th,
2010. June 16th will be common for both events.
Both events are going to be held at exactly the same
place: the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH). In this way the attendants can
attend to either of the two events or to both.
Objectives of the workshop
RCR 2010 is the second edition of this workshop. The
first edition was held with great success at Cemagref, Antony, France, April
6-7, 2009.
The workshop is organised under the frame of the IIR
Working Party on Refrigerant Charge Reduction.
The objectives of this series of workshops is to bring
together scientists, researchers and people from industry working with
refrigerant charge reduction in refrigerating systems in order to discuss the
latest developments in this field.
Organizing Committee
Prof. Björn PALM, KTH (chairman)
Dr. Hélène MACCHI-TEJEDA, Cemagref
Prof. José M. CORBERAN, UPV
Conducting of sessions
All sessions will be conducted in English.
Conference proceedings
A CD-ROM will be given at the conference.
Language
The official language of the conference is English.
Technical tour
Technical tours will be organized on Friday, June 18th.
See
program.
1. Design of low
refrigerant charge systems
2. Thermodynamics
in compact heat exchangers
- State of the art
of current technologies in terms of refrigerant charge
- Heat transfer,
flow, pressure losses, void fraction in compact heat exchangers
- Distribution and
optimization of refrigeration circuitry
3. Design of
innovative plants/components for reduced charge systems
4. Economic and
environmental assessments
Industry partners
RCR 2010 will bring together scientists, researchers
and manufacturers dealing with refrigerant charge reduction in refrigerating
systems and air conditioning in order to discuss the latest developments in
this field (compact heat exchangers, secondary fluids, substitution of flooded
evaporators, new control methods of the installation to minimize the
refrigerant amount, optimization of the liquid line, ...).
As you probably have developed new systems, we offer
you the opportunity to present your point of view on industrial achievements
and innovations that enable refrigerant charge reduction. Also we would very
much appreciate if you could contribute to this day; your participation could
take three forms:
1-Oral presentation
You could make a
short presentation of the various systems, equipments or concepts that your
company commercializes which promote refrigerant charge reduction. The
presentations must concentrate on technical aspects of systems and avoid pure
commercialism.
2- Sponsorship of the event
Insert of your
logo on the conference program, in the proceedings and on the web site:
The location of
your logo will depend on the amount of your donation (from 400€) (workshop
registration fee not included).
The 2nd
International IIR RCR 2010 workshop will offer an opportunity for companies to
reach an audience with a strong interest in that field. With research experts
and industry players from around the world discussing the latest research,
current issues facing the industry and delivering an updated overview of what
the future holds, this is a not to be missed opportunity for companies to
become involved in this event.
3- Both oral presentation and sponsorship
Do not hesitate to
contact us for further information.
Scheduled on Thursday, June 17th. See
program.
