Alternative refrigerants to HCFC22 in air-conditioning applications.

Author(s) : KONDEPUDI S. N.

Summary

The paper presents the results obtained from an experimental program using 3 different compositions of R32-R134a blends in a 2-ton split system air conditioner. All three blends had steady state efficiency levels within 2% of R22 performance levels. The results show that the 40/60% blend R32-R134a was the most promising alternative with both efficiency and capacity levels within 1% of R22. Improved performance levels should be possible.
