It is well know that when dealing with R744 high ambient temperatures can create design issues including loss of efficiency or reliability. Currently a majority of the design effort is being focused on adapting the refrigeration circuit design to adapt to higher ambient conditions. What if we could de-couple the impact of ambient temperature from the system entirely? This seminar will explore a case study of an operating hybrid geothermal transcritical CO2 installation from design, installation and through first year of operation.
