Thermodynamic evaluation of R22 alternative refrigerants and refrigerant mixtures.

Summary

The paper presents the performance evaluation of nine R22 alternatives. The study was conducted using a semi-theoretical model, CYCLE-11, with a pure, cross-flow representation of heat transfer in the evaporator and condenser. Simulations were conducted for "drop-in" performance, for performance in a modified system to assess the fluids' potentials, and for performance in a modified system equipped with a liquid-line/suction-line heat exchanger. The results (presented on a basis relative to R22 performance) include the volumetric capacity, COP, and compressor discharge pressure and temperature.
