For more than fifteen years, the Laboratory of Thermophysical Properties of Fluids has mainly worked in working fluids of interest in absorption heat pumps and refrigeration. Some of these fluids are listed continued: Ionic Liquids as absorbents Nanofluids as an absorbent of water Ammonia/sodium thiocyanate Ammonia/lithium nitrate Ammonia / lithium nitrate / Water Ammonia / Water / sodium hydroxide Water / lithium bromide / lithium nitrate / Cluroro lithium / lithium iodide TFE/polyglycols |
