Samsung and Oak Ridge National Laboratory are testing a cold-climate vapor-compression heat pump designed to maintain stable heating performance below −30 C. The system combines a rotary scroll compressor with flash-injection technology to reduce energy losses, prevent overheating and improve reliability during prolonged operation in extreme cold.

Samsung Electronics has teamed up with the US Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory to develop technology designed to provide stable heating and

Samsung Electronics is working with U.S. national labs on heat-pump technology designed to provide reliable, efficient heating in extreme cold.
