SUBTHRESHOLD EFFECTS OF LOW-FREQUENCY ALTERNATING CURRENT ON NERVE CONDUCTION DELAY


Fundamentals and Applications of Stepped Pressure Cycle

A stepped pressure cycle is proposed to improve the energy efficiency of refrigeration and heat pump cycles.By constructing multiple suction and discharge pressures, the refrigerant temperatures in the evaporators and condensers underwent step changes and approached the heat source temperatures.This helps to improve heat transfer efficiency and red
