🚀 We're thrilled to announce a breakthrough in compressor technology! 🚀 Huge congratulations to the incredible team at ULiège (Prof. Vincent Lemort and Dr. Nicolas Leclercq) and Stephane Watts who have just achieved a groundbreaking milestone – the world's first successful tests of a two-phase scroll compressor! 🎉 This breakthrough technology unlocks new levels of efficiency, sustainability, and reliability in various applications, including combined cooling, heating and power generation, high-temperature heat pumps, and energy storage systems protected by the following worldwide Tifeo patents: Combined Cooling Heating and Power plants: Patent WO2017158511A1 "Plant and method for the supply of electric power and/or mechanical power, thermal power and/or cooling power" High-temperature heat pump plant: Patent WO2024033752A1 “High-temperature heat pump plant, usable reversibly in alternative operating mode as a co-tri-generation plant” Energy storage plant: Patent WO2024176100A1 “Plant and method for storing electrical energy and-or mechanical energy, and possibly also thermal energy” Learn more about this groundbreaking technology and its potential applications www.tifeo.eu #innovation #technology #compressors #turbines #twophaseflow #energyefficiency #sustainability #energyrevolution #Tifeo #Regenby2
The REGENby2 will integrate innovative two-phase scroll machines into its multi-generation lab-scale prototype 🛠️ #Expanders convert the thermodynamic energy contained in a fluid into mechanical power and pass it on to generators which then produce electricity. ➡️ Two-phase fluid expanders are able to work with fluid in wet vapour phase (liquid + vapour) to produce mechanical-electric energy due to simultaneous expansion of the fluid’s two phases. #Compressors use mechanical power coming from variable speed motors to increase the pressure of the working fluid, concentrating the energy it contains and transporting it through the system. ➡️ Two-phase fluid compressors are able to work with fluid in wet vapour phase to increase simultaneously the pressure of the fluid’s two phases, employing external mechanical-electric energy. Experimental tests have been conducted at Université de Liège and National Technical University of Athens to demonstrate the robust operation and good efficiency level of two-phase fluid compressors and expanders, and to identify further possible improvements. #EnergyTransition #RenewableEnergy #Sustainability #Innovation #Technology #Efficiency
