Summary

Carbon dioxide at supercritical state is proposed to carry out a heat pump cycle like a Lorenz triangular cycle. Calculations show that carbon dioxide as a working fluid can compete with CFCs, especially for heat pumps used as water heaters. The main disadvantage of carbon dioxide is its high pressure. In other respects carbon dioxide has excellent properties.
