Summary

A systematic study of performance of a refrigerator using two refrigerants R134a and R410A has been conducted. The R134a was the original design refrigerant, while the R410A was the drop-in refrigerant. The study was performed on a small refrigerator charged with each refrigerant alone at nearly same ambient conditions. Temperatures at various locations in the refrigeration system were measured using thermocouples during the running of the experiments, and the data collected were processed into performance refrigeration parameters. The results have indicated that both of the refrigeration capacity and coefficient of performance were higher for the refrigerant R410a by about 3 and 7%, respectively.
