Thermodynamic Performance Prediction for Non-CFC Mixtures
The ideal thermodynamic performances of a variety of non-CFC refrigerants and their mixtures were calculated by using the Patel-Teja equation of state. The results indicated that the preferable non-CFC refrigerant mixtures could be HCFC-124 + HFC-152a, HFC-152a + HFC-134, dimethyl ether + HCFC-22, and dimethyl ether + HCFC-124 for air-conditioning systems, and binary mixtures of HCFC-22 + HFC-125, and HCFC-22 + HFC-143a for low-temperature applications. Those potential non-CFC mixtures were suggested for further investigations.
