Résumé

In India, about 80% of the domestic refrigerators use R134a as refrigerant due to its excellent thermodynamic and thermo physical properties. But R134a has high GWP of 1300. The higher GWP due to R134a emissions from domestic refrigerators leads to identifying a long term alternative to meet the requirements of system performance, refrigerant-lubricant interaction, energy efficiency, environmental impacts, safety and service. The Kyoto Protocol of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) calls for reductions in emissions of six categories of greenhouse gases, including hydro fluorocarbons (HFCs) used as refrigerants. From the environmental, ecological and health point of view, it is urgent to find some better substitute for HFC refrigerants. After reviewing the various literature the hydrocarbons (R290 and R600a) refrigerants and their mixture gives good performance in small capacity domestic refrigerator compare to R134a.
