REFRIGERATOR-FREEZER ENERGY TESTING WITH ALTERNATIVE REFRIGERANTS.

Summary

RESULTS ARE PRESENTED FOR AN 0.51 M3, TOP-MOUNT REFRIGERATOR-FREEZER WITH A STATIC CONDENSER USING R12, R500, R12/DIMETHYLETHER (DME), R22/R142B, AND R134A. CONCLUSIONS ARE THAT R500 AND R12/DME HAVE A REDUCED ENERGY CONSUMPTION RELATIVE TO R12 WHEN REPLACED IN THE TEST UNIT WITH NO MODIFICATIONS TO THE REFRIGERATION SYSTEM. THE R134A AND R22/R142B RESULTS WERE LESS PROMISING.
