Summary

In order to accurately evaluate the performance of R32 and unsaturated fluorinated olefins (HFOs) binary mixtures in residential air condition (RAC) system, the vapor-liquid phase equilibrium (VLE) data of R32 and R1216 binary mixture has been measured with a liquid phase circulation system in the temperature range from 285 to 315 K. The experimental data were correlated by Peng-Robinson (PR) equation of state with Huron-Vidal (HV) mixing rule and non-random two-liquid (NRTL) activity coefficient model. Maximum deviation of the pressure and the mole fraction was 1.38% and 0.013, respectively. The azeotropic behavior was observed for the R32 and R1216 binary mixture when the mole fraction of R32 was around 0.9. The RAC system with standard refrigeration, heating and variable evaporation temperature operating condition was simulated. The cycle performance of binary mixtures of R32 + R1216, R1234yf and R1234ze(E) at different concentrations was compared. The azeotrope R32/R1216 (molar ratio 0.9/0.1) has an extremely low GWP, the COP, refrigeration/heating capacity per unit volume and condensation pressure close to pure R32, and lower discharge temperature. At the same time, it also has well variable operating conditions performance and can be considered as a drop-in replacement for R32 and R410A in RAC systems.
