Simulation of Compression Heat Pump Cycles Using NH3/H2O Mixtures to Estimate Their Working Domains
The working domain of different NH3/H2O heat pump cycles is investigated to provide temperatures up to 150 °C. An algorithm is developed, which maximizes coefficient of performance and volumetric heat capacity and minimizes compressor discharge temperature for given external temperatures and internal pressure limits.

Organic Rankine cycles (ORCs) have been widely used to convert medium-low-temperature geothermal energy to electricity. Proper cycle layout is generally determined by considering both the thermo-physical properties of the working fluid and the geothermal

The interdependencies of the refrigerant, flowsheet, compressor, and operating point are evaluated for residential heat pumps. The study shows that the optimal refrigerant strongly depends on the flowsheet and the compressor modeling approach.

Theoretical analysis of a Low GWP Refrigerants as a Drop in substitute of R134a in a Domestic Refrigerator [PDF]
Now a days Fridges and Air-conditioners are mostly used in domestic environment. The CFCs have been almost ruled out since 1995 due to their huge impact on the ozone layer, due to the above problem HFC refrigerants are introduced but these are having a ...

The flow boiling heat transfer performance of R22 and R407c, in a microfin tube with a helix angle of 22° and an apex angle of 48°, was evaluated in a study. The study is aimed at investigating the impact of heat flux, mass flux, saturation temperature, and vapor quality on the heat transfer coefficient during flow boiling.

Performance of an oil-free linear compressor using R1234yf [PDF]
As an alternative to the hydrocarbons (HCs), R1234yf synthetic refrigerant from the family of the hydrofluoroolefins (HFOs), has emerged recently as a replacement fluid for R134a. The purpose of this study is to investigate the performance of an oil-free
