Experimental and model comparison of transcritical CO2 versus R134a and R410 system performance.

Summary

The paper describes the comparison of performance of transcritical CO2 systems for mobile air conditioning and residential heat pumps to their HFC counterparts, R134a and R410a respectively. It presents the design of experiments and facilities for such comparisons and preliminary experimental results. Separate environmental chambers have been constructed for each system, each containing wind tunnels with separate piping for the two refrigerants. The different tests are described and the results detailed and discussed.
