Thermal conductivity is an important transport propeny in understanding heat transfer characteristics. It can be evaluated either from experimental measurements or theoretical predictions. In the present srudy, a theoretical model is proposed for predicting the thermal conductivity of a refrigerant mixture. This method requires speed of sound information obtained theoretically for a liquid mixr...

Viscosity measurements of six binary mixtures R32+R1234yf and R32+R1243zf at different compositions were conducted in the homogenous liquid gas phases with a vibrating-wire viscometer temperature range from (254 to 383) K pressures (1 8) MPa. The measurement system was verified pure carbon dioxide R32 phases. relative combined expanded uncertainties (k = 2) experimental viscosity are generally ...

A shift in the composition of a refrigerant mixture in a refrigerating circuit is a phenomenon related to the thermophysical properties of the mixture and lubricating oil, the refrigerant/lubricant mass ratio in the circuit, and the features of the plant concerned. This phenomenon may also be accentuated by any leakage or by unsuitable charging procedures. This paper gives a detailed descriptio...

Experimental measurements of local heat tra nsfer coefficients and pressure drop are made for forced conv ection boiling and condensation for R134a-oil mixtures inside a horizontal tube. The results are compared with the experime ntal data of pure Rl34a. Average convection boiling and cond ensation heat transfer coefficients decreased about 20% at a 10\ o il mass fraction, and boiling and conde...

This paper presents the improvement of eco-friendly and power consumption saving refrigerants for refrigeration systems. The novel azeotropic refrigerant mixtures HFCs HCs can replace systems, using R134, R32, R125, R1270 in several compositions found decision tree function RapidMiner software (which came first KDnuggets annual poll). All results are mixed POE, which is A1 classification refrig...
