Will throw light on recent developments in MicroGroove Technology

The International Copper Association (ICA) has announced that it will sponsor two webinars on the use of MicroGroove technology in the development of evaporator and condenser coils for air conditioning and refrigeration applications. The webinars will take place on June 14 and June 22, the announcement said.

According to the announcement, the June 14 webinar titled, “The MicroGroove advantage: achieving higher energy-efficiency with smaller-diameter copper tubes”, is scheduled for 2pm Central European Summer Time. It will update the information presented in the MicroGroove webinar of December 15 and will answer many of the questions raised in the first webinar, which is now available on-demand via the website: www.microgroove.net/webinars. The June 22 webinar, titled “Boost ACR energy efficiency with copper microgroove tubes”, is scheduled for 1pm Eastern Daylight Saving Time, and will present new content relating to the design and manufacture or heat exchanger coils.

More information about the webinars can be found on the website, the announcement said, and added that registrants can submit questions in advance through the registration page.

 Pointing out that as OEMs seek to increase the energy efficiency of their air conditioning and refrigeration products and that higher levels of performance are being demanded from heat-exchanger coils, ICA claimed that one path to higher performance coils and energy-efficient AC&R products was the use of smaller-diameter copper tubes with inner grooves. In this context, ICA explained that it was sponsoring the webinars to bring US and European designers up to speed on information regarding this.
