Author(s) : PFEIFFENBERGER U.

Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

The characteristics of various refrigerants for use in heat pumps operating above 90°C are compared. Thermophysical properties such as high latent heat, a moderate slope of the vapour pressure curve and a small specific volume of vapour are important. The critical temperature should be above the required condensation temperature, whilst the evaporator temperature should be above atmospheric pressure.
