Summary

In the study, cycle performances of propane, ammonia and carbon dioxide as a working fluid are calculated, and are compared with those of HCFC-22. A theoretical fundamental heat pump cycle and a fundamental cycle with secondary refrigerant are selected for comparison; a liquid-injection cycle for ammonia and an internal heat exchange cycle for carbon dioxide are also calculated. The effects of heat transfer characteristics and pressure drop in heat exchangers on heat pump performance are evaluated.
