LOW-GWP REFRIGERANTS FOR MEDIUM AND HIGH-PRESSURE APPLICATIONS. [PDF]
The merits of an alternative refrigerant are established based on many attributes including environmental acceptance, chemical stability in the refrigeration system, low toxicity, flammability, efficiency and volumetric capacity. In an earlier work, these criteria were used to screen a comprehensive database to search for refrigerants with low global ...

The Role of Environmental Metrics (GWP, TEWI, LCCP) in the Selection Of Low GWP Refrigerant
AbstractBased on increasing contribution of refrigeration systems to climate change it is necessary to use environmentally friendly refrigerants to mitigate the global warming. Different environmental metrics are used to facilitate decision-making process of selection of refrigerant with low global warming potential.

Low GWP halocarbon refrigerants: A review of thermophysical properties
In the present work, a large number of compounds described in the publicly available literature have been reviewed with the aim to identify possible substitutes for high-GWP HFCs in HVAC&R and organic Rankine cycle (ORC) applications. Taking into account various criteria (particularly low toxicity, low flammability, low GWP, and high energy efficiency),

Characteristics of Some New Generation Refrigerants with Low GWP
AbstractIn the present study, a comparison was considered about some characteristics of new generation low GWP value gases most of which are at the trial stage. Hydrofluoro-olefin (HFO) based mixed gases having low GWP value were investigated as alternatives to different four refrigerants used commonly in refrigerating and air conditioning equipments ...
