Matching Testing Possibilities and Needed Experiments for Successful Vapor Compression Cycles in Microgravity

The literature shows five decades of interest in vapor compression cooling for spacecraft, while only very few conclusions can be drawn because of either non-systematic approaches or sparsely documented experiments. In contrast, the demand for high COP refrigerators and freezers has increased with t...
