464 citations
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a method to evaluate the characteristics and performance of a single stage lithium bromide (LiBr) -water absorption machine, where the necessary heat and mass transfer equations and appropriate equations describing the properties of working fluids are specified.
366 citations
TL;DR: In this paper, an analytical study of the forced convection heat transfer characteristics in high porosity open-cell metal-foam filled pipes is presented. And the results show that the pore size and porosity of metal foams play important roles on overall heat transfer performance.
327 citations
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide a review of current approaches in road food transport refrigeration, estimates of their environmental impacts, and research on the development and application of alternative technologies to vapour compression refrigeration systems that have the potential to reduce the overall energy consumption and environmental impacts.
297 citations
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the TRNSYS computer program, for the modelling and simulation of the energy flows of modern houses, to examine measures to reduce the thermal load.

TL;DR: In this paper, the impacts of global climate change on food systems are expected to be widespread, complex, geographically and temporally variable, and profoundly influenced by socioeconomic conditions, and some synergies among food security, adaptati...
Abstract: Food systems contribute 19%–29% of global anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, releasing 9,800–16,900 megatonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (MtCO2e) in 2008. Agricultural production, including indirect emissions associated with land-cover change, contributes 80%–86% of total food system emissions, with significant regional variation. The impacts of global climate change on food systems are expected to be widespread, complex, geographically and temporally variable, and profoundly influenced by socioeconomic conditions. Historical statistical studies and integrated assessment models provide evidence that climate change will affect agricultural yields and earnings, food prices, reliability of delivery, food quality, and, notably, food safety. Low-income producers and consumers of food will be more vulnerable to climate change owing to their comparatively limited ability to invest in adaptive institutions and technologies under increasing climatic risks. Some synergies among food security, adaptati...
