Qurie GmbH has developed a heat pump that replaces traditional vapor-compression cycles with solid-state materials, potentially reaching over 70% theoretical efficiency and cutting energy use by up to 30%. Its patented heat-pipe-based design enables fast evaporation-condensation heat transfer without complex mechanics, achieving up to 20 Hz operation and aiming for compact, efficient cooling in sub-10 kW applications.
20 segments, targeting a 20 Kelvin temperature span and approximately 100 W of cooling capacity.
100w is still a very long way to go in scaling to 1-10 kw. Hopefully it scales; always good to have increasing efficiency in climate control when our planet is warming
Yes, I read that part too.
