As the cost of components and pumps becomes more affordable, variable speed pumps are being used to increase the efficiency and reliability of water distribution systems in multi-story buildings.

Variable frequency drives (VFDs), also known as variable speed drives (VSDs), are used to modulate the speed of motors in various applications, from hydronic water pumping to VAV fan units to vacuum ...

Geothermal heat pumps (GHPs) have been around for a long time, but recent technological advances have propelled these systems into a new sphere of efficiency and comfort, said Doug Dougherty, ...

Scientists in Turkey have developed a new algorithm to optimize the efficiency of PV-powered water pumps. The novel technique is based on the Extended Kalman–Bucy filter, which is a ...

Illinois-based heat pump manufacturer Enertech has announced a new geothermal heat pump for residential applications. The variable-speed water–to–water (WV) system has a heating coefficient of ...
