Hydrocarbon blends and blends of R134a-R600a as drop-in refrigerants for small capacity commercial refrigeration appliance: an experimental study.
Author(s) : AGARWAL R. S.
Summary
The paper presents a thermodynamic study of hydrocarbon blends (propane/isobutane) and blends of R134a-R600a as a possible "drop-in" (some electrical components to be changed to make the appliance safe) substitute to R12. Extensive experimental work has been carried out to evaluate the performance of the proposed blends for small capacity commercial refrigeration appliances such as bottle coolers. The results show that the hydrocarbon blend with 50 percent by mass of isobutane and the R134a-R600a mixture are potential drop-in candidates.
