Transient mixing characteristics of refrigerant with refrigeration oil.

Summary

Mixing of refrigerant with refrigeration oil has great influence on viscosity and foaming of the oil in refrigerant compressors. The paper dealt with transient characteristics of mixing process of refrigerant into refrigeration oil. The mixing phenomena were investigated by using an experimental apparatus which modeled process of the oil-refrigerant mixing in a casing of refrigerant compressors. On the other hand, the mixing phenomena were analyzed theoretically under the assumption of one-dimensional diffusion. Based on the comparison of theoretical and experimental results, values of apparent diffusion coefficient were decided.
