Working Principle

In the supercritical state (the carbon dioxide state above the critical temperature of 31.04 ° C and the critical pressure of 7.38 MPa), the carbon dioxide fluid has the characteristics of both gas and liquid, while having high heat conduction capacity and low viscosity. Heat is transferred through the metal walls to carbon dioxide, which is then transferred to another medium.
