A performance-enhancing additive for vapour-compression heat pumps: additional test results.

Author(s) : GRZYLL L. R., SCARINGE R. P., LAUT P., et al.

Summary

The paper describes test results of vapour-compression heat pumps operating with a performance-enhancing additive that increases the effective latent heat of vaporization of the working fluid. A previous paper presented test results for a system operating with HFC-134a refrigerant, polyolester lubricant, and a scroll compressor. Those results showed that use of the additive resulted in increased COPc compared to tests without the additive. The paper presents additional test results with other compressor types, refrigerant types, and lubricants.
