Summary

The article describes an economical method for testing refrigerants in terms of COP and evaporative behaviour in a lubricated system. Part 1 describes the equipment, its instrumentation and operating procedures. Part 2 discusses the system output for four test refrigerants - two pure fluids (R134a and R22) and two test non-azeotropic blends, each having a glide of around 9 K. The study of R22 was confined to evaporative behaviour. The ranking of the refrigerants by COP and boiling length and the generality of use of these rankings are discussed.
