Preliminary considerations on retrofitting a cold store to non-CFC fluids.

Author(s) : MALEK A.

Summary

A detailed, preliminary study should be done before a refrigerant fluid is replaced in an installation. Among other things, consideration must be given to the cost and the availability of candidate fluids, and to the restrictions imposed by the existing installation. In the case considered, R12 is the fluid to be replaced. Ammonia is given special attention because of its environmental qualities and its excellent thermodynamic and thermal properties. As it is cheap and available, it is an excellent option for "Article 5" countries of the Montreal Protocol.
