Glide matching with binary and ternary zeotropic refrigerant mixtures. 1. An experimental study. 2. A computer simulation.

Summary

Experimental and simulation results are presented showing the advantages of the use of binary or ternary mixtures in variable-temperature applications, from the performance point of view. To obtain a large temperature variation during phase change, a binary mixture should be composed of fluids with very different boiling points, which results in a non-linear relation between mixture enthalpy and temperature variation. The authors show that this effect can be reduced by the use of ternary mixtures. They studied the binary mixtures R23/R142b, R22/R142b and the ternary mixture R23/R22/R142b, since they offered good temperature profiles for the demonstration.
