Summary

The experimental study evaluates both general characteristics and system performances of the most credited fluids that are likely to substitute R502 in a refrigerating plant. R402A, R402B, R403B and R408A (still containing HCFC) and R404A, R407A and FX40 (chlorine free) have been tested. Generally, both of them have showed performances very close to those of R502 except R403B, whose COP has been found to be about 8% lower than that of R502.
