Performance Characteristics of Automobile Air Conditioning Using the R134a/R1234yf Mixture. [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy (Basel), 2019
In this study, the energy and exergy of an automobile refrigeration system using R134a and R134a/R1234yf were analyzed experimentally with respect to outdoor air temperature and compressor speed. As outdoor air temperature increased from 32.5 °C to 37.5 °C, the coefficient of performance (COP) and total exergy destruction rate of the refrigeration ...

Experimental Assessment on Performance of a Heat Pump Cycle Using R32/R1234yf and R744/R32/R1234yf

open access: yes, 2016
     Hydro-fluorocarbons (HFCs) are widely used as working fluids (refrigerants) in air-conditioning and refrigeration systems. However, at the 1997 Kyoto Conference (COP3), it was determined that the product and use of HFCs should be regulated due to their high global warming potential (GWP).

Techno‐Economic Analysis of Hydrocarbon‐CO2 Binary Mixtures in Heat Pump‐Based Thermal Energy Storages

open access: yesEnergy Technology, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Heat‐pump charging of Carnot batteries with zeotropic large temperature glide CO2–alkane mixtures enables charging from ambient to ≈398.15 K with improved heat‐exchanger temperature matching at moderate pressure ratios. The highest COP occurs near xCO2 ≈ 0.15, whereas cost and throttling losses rise monotonically with CO2 content; butane isomers ...

Performance Investigation of Eco‐Friendly Refrigerant Mixtures as an Alternative to R134a in Vapour‐Compression Refrigeration System

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 21, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT The growing impacts of climate change and energy scarcity demand environmentally sustainable refrigeration solutions. This study investigates eco‐friendly refrigerants (R152a, R290 and R600a) and their optimized ternary mixture as alternatives to R134a. Four blend compositions were analysed using experimental testing and REFPROP 10.0 modelling

Performance potential of ORC architectures for waste heat recovery taking into account design and environmental constraints [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The subcritical ORC (SCORC), sometimes with addition of a recuperator, is the de facto state of the art technology in the current market. However architectural changes and operational modifications have the potential to improve the base system.
