Résumé

This study proposes a modification to the two-stage cascade vapor compression refrigeration system by adding internal heat exchangers that function as subcoolers and desuperheater. The influence of each internal heat exchanger proposed on the exergy destruction rate, exergy efficiency, compressor power consumption, ECOP, and COP of the system was investigated. Additionally, various refrigerant combinations were considered as working fluids to evaluate which combination is the most suitable for the proposed system. Mathematical models based on the principles of thermodynamics were established in Engineering Equation Solver (EES), a software used for energy and exergy analysis. The results reveal that the addition of specific internal heat exchangers causes either an increase or decrease in overall system performance, depending on the type of refrigerant combination used. Consequently, there exists an optimal system configuration for each refrigerant combination. Compared with the conventional two-stage cascade refrigeration system, the optimal system configurations in the present study exhibited higher overall system performance. A maximum increase in exergy efficiency, ECOP, and COP of 7.31 %, 9.8 %, and 7.3 %, respectively, can be observed with the refrigerant combination R450A/R404A. Additionally, the results of the exergy analysis identify that the HTC compressor, condenser, LTC compressor, and cascade condenser are the primary contributors to the exergy destruction rate within the system.
