Thermodynamics I
Global warming potential (GWP) is a measure that compares the ability of different greenhouse gases to trap heat in the atmosphere over a specified time period, usually 100 years. It helps quantify how much a gas contributes to global warming relative to carbon dioxide (CO2), which has a GWP of 1. Understanding GWP is crucial for assessing the environmental impact of various substances used in air-conditioning systems and other applications that emit greenhouse gases.
