New HFC/HFO Blends as Refrigerants for the Vapor-Compression Refrigeration System (VCRS)
Energies, 2021 In this work, which is related to the current European Parliament Regulation on restrictions affecting refrigeration, four new three-component refrigerants have been proposed; all were created using low Global Warming Potential(GWP) synthetic and natural

Mechanical Vapour Compression Refrigeration System: Review Part 1: Environment Challenge
International Journal of Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 2020 In Australia and others developed countries, concerns about global warming have increased, and these concerns influence the use of refrigerants as working fluids in mechanical vapour compression refrigeration systems. One of the most important aspects of

A review of carbon dioxide as a refrigerant in refrigeration technology
South African Journal of Science, 2015 Tough environmental laws and stringent government policies have revolutionised the refrigeration sector, especially concerning the cycle fluid known as the refrigerant. It has been observed that only natural refrigerants are environmentally benign.

Natural Working Fluids for Absorption Refrigeration
, 2022 European and global regulations on greenhouse gases are constantly evolving. Most of the fluorinated refrigerants currently used are close to be banned due to their high global warming potentials. Therefore new alternatives less harmful to the environment need to be developed.

Functional Equations for Calculating the Properties of Low-GWP R1234ze(E) Refrigerant
Energies, 2020 Legal requirements for the use of refrigerants increasingly restrict the use of high-global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants. As a result, there is a growing interest in natural refrigerants and in those belonging to the hydrofluoroolefins (HFO ...
