Exergetic and thermodynamic comparison of R12 and R134a as vapour compression refrigeration working fluids.

Author(s) : DE ROSSI F., MASTRULLO R., MAZZEI P.

Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

A software package for both the computation of thermodynamic properties and the analysis of the usual vapour compression plant schemes is a useful tool for air conditioning and refrigeration researchers and manufacturers. At present, it could make an important contribution to the search for CFC substitutes; in fact, comparisons between two or more working fluids could be accomplished more easily. A program code carried out by the authors is presented by means of some demonstrative diagrams referring to a comparison between the "ozone killer" R12 and its substitute R134a. An R134a exergy-enthalpy chart is also provided.
