Summary

This paper presents a detailed exergy analysis of an actual vapour compression refrigeration cycle. A computational model has been developed for computing COP, exergy destruction, exergetic efficiency and efficiency defects for R502, R-404A and R-507A. The present investigation has been done for evaporator and condenser temperatures in the range of -50 to 0°C and 40 to 55°C, respectively. The results indicate that R-507A is a better substitute to R-502 than R-404A. The efficiency defect in condenser is highest, and lowest in liquid vapour heat exchanger for the refrigerants considered.
