چکیده
In recent years, increasing attention has been focused on the use ofhalogenated hydrocarbon mixtures as working fluids in vapor compressionrefrigeration systems, e.g. heat pumps. This paper discusses phase rules,applied to the equilibrium of the vapor and liquid states of such mixtures.Mixtures of ideal behavior, those that obey Raoult's law, and those withdeviations from the law are included. Their behavior may analytically beapproximated by different ~quationsof state developed during the pastcentury. An overview on the type of equations is given along withexperiment«! datJ. they approximated. Those equilibrium data are summarizedto a table of investigated binary fluid mixtures. A selection of them werecorrelated with the De Santes equation of state. This equation pridictesboth the vapor and liquid volumes with satisfactory accuracy up to thevicinity of the-critical point. Thermodynamic properties of ternary fluidmixtures, comprised of the correlated binaries, are simmulated with the DeSantes equation of state and compared with experimental data. Mixing rulesare reviewed and suggestions of incorporating a coefficient for the ternarymixture are made to fit the experimental data better.

Prediction of Thermodynamic Properties of Refrigerants in the Superheated Ragion
This paper demonstrates the capabilities of the PFGC-MES equation of state (EOS) for calculating the thermodynamic properties in the superheated region for pure refrigerants. In addition the ability of this EOS is also tested for predicting the VLE behavior of binary mixtures. For pure compounds several properties in the superheated region are predicted. The calculated results and the experimen...

متن کاملHFC & HC Blends as Refrigerants
The blends formed mixing hydrofluorocarbons (HFC) and hydrocarbons (HC) can be classified as semi-natural refrigerants since, by optimizing the composition, it is in principle possible to adapt basic features such as GWP, TEWI and flammability to the industrial and environmental requirements. However, the energetic efficiency must be competitive with the traditional refrigerants. To evaluate th...
