Thermodynamic Properties of Refrigerant Mixtures

Abstract

The objective of this project was to analyze the impact of refrigerant mixtures on refrigeration system capacity and components. A heat pump computer simulator was developed to predict the change in system capacity of two baseline air-conditioning systems as a function of refrigerant mixture concentration. Refrigerant mixtures made of refrigerants normally stocked on Air Force bases were considered.
