Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

TEWI (Total Equivalent Warming Impact) takes into consideration both direct and indirect global warming effects of refrigerants, including the emissions from the entire life cycle of a refrigeration or air conditioning system, such as energy consumption, leaks, and end-of-life disposal. GWI (Global Warming Index) is not a commonly used term in the refrigeration industry. GWP (Global Warming Potential) only takes into account the direct global warming effects of refrigerants. ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential) only applies to refrigerants that deplete the ozone layer.
