Abstract The complex behavior of two-phase flow particularly in microchannels can be unpredictable. Experimental measurements are near impossible because the unavailable compatible assessment equipment. Meanwhile, repeated experiments for reliability outcomes costly and involved much time effort. Environmentally friendly propane is currently being considered as a replacement hazardous coolants ...

four kinds of refrigerant mixtures R22/Rl34a, R22/Rl52a, R22/Rl42b and R22/Rl23, which contain some new halocarbons which are considered to be the alternatives for CFCs, were evaluated in order to realize higher condensing temperature than that using R22 at high temperature operation, and larger heating capacity than that using R22/Rll4 at normal temperature operation. These mixtures were appli...

In this work, a novel dual-nozzle ejector enhanced triple-evaporator refrigeration cycle (DETRC) without separator is proposed to improve the performance of the conventional ejector one (CETRC). The performance of DETRC is analyzed and compared with CETRC in term of energy coefficient of performance (COPen). Under given operating conditions, the COPen improvement of the no...

The given paper is aimed at constructing the general circuit of heat processes in a semihermetic reciprocating refrigerant compressor as a basis of application of new ecology-friendly refrigerants as well as optimizing design parameters of compressor. While performing this work the following problems were solved: 1. Experimental research of heat processes in a semihermetic refrigerant reciproca...

This paper presents the heat transfer coefficients and the pressure drop measured during HC-600a (Isobutane) condensation inside a brazed plate heat exchanger: the effects of saturation temperature, refrigerant mass flux and vapour super-heating are investigated. The heat transfer coefficients show weak sensitivity to saturation temperature and great sensitivity to refrigerant mass flux. At low...

The refrigerant release technology relieves even eliminates the over-compression loss of scroll compressor by bypassing the refrigerant in the compression chamber to the suction pipe under small system pressure ratio conditions. Because the room air conditioner works in mild conditions at most of the time, its seasonal energy performance is expected to be effectively improved by the refrigerant...

The interest in application of secondary refiigerant systems in supermarket refrigeration is increasing. Reduced refrigerant losses i and the chance for lower installation and operation costs is promoting this development. There are also !options to use natural refrigerants, more efficient refrigerants and gas or waste heat driven absorption proc;esses. First installations of secondary refriger...

A New-PVE lubricant was developed for use with R32 refrigerant. R32 has been proposed as an alternative refrigerant for R410A refrigerant, to reduce global warming. In this report, we evaluated the relationship between the New-PVE lubricant and R32 and R410A refrigerants. The evaluation items were physical properties (miscibility, solubility, mixture viscosity and volumetric resistivity) and th...

Experimental investigation was done to find the role of capillary tube length and amount of refrigerant charge on the overall heat transfer coefficient in condenser and evaporator and actual COP of a simple vapour compression refrigeration system. It was concluded that increasing of the refrigerant charge in the system largely enhances the overall heat transfer coefficient in the evaporator by ...
