Since the industrial era, the extensive use of fossil energy has led to a continuous increase in greenhouse gas emissions, thereby accelerating global warming. Cooling energy consumption represents a significant portion of total energy usage, accounting for approximately 20% of global energy consumption. Therefore, there is an urgent necessity to develop new cooling technologies that are low-energy consumption, highly efficient, and environmentally friendly to meet the growing demand for cooling.
