Thermal Energy Storage of R1234yf, R1234ze, R134a and R32/MOF-74 Nanofluids: A Molecular Simulation Study. [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials (Basel), 2018
Thermal energy storage can be carried out by working fluid adsorbing and desorbing in porous materials. In this paper, the energy storage properties of four refrigerants, R1234yf, R1234ze, R134a and R32, with M-metal organic framework (MOF)-74 (M = Zn ...

Experimental evaluation of system modifications to increase R1234ze(E) cooling capacity [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Thermal Engineering, 2017
The GWP limitations are being progressively introduced in Europe through Regulation EU No 517/201, phasing out R134a in most of its refrigeration and air conditioning applications. Pure hydrofluoroolefins are proposed to substitute this fluid, however generally system modifications are needed to achieve a good performance.

Condensation and Evaporation of R134a, R1234ze(E) and R1234ze(Z) Flow in Horizontal Microfin Tubes at Higher Temperature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Hydrofluoro-olefin R1234ze(E) and the isomer R1234ze(Z) are anticipated to be environment-friendly alternatives of R134a. Especially, R1234ze(Z) is most likely to be suitable for high-temperature heat pumps in industries. The heat transfer characteristics of those refrigerants R134a, R1234ze(E) and R1234ze(Z) are experimentally compared in this study ...

Comparison between R134a and R1234ze(E) during Flow Boiling in Microfin Tubes [PDF]

open access: yesFluids, 2021
Environmental concerns are forcing the replacement of commonly used refrigerants, and finding new fluids is a top priority. Soon the R134a will be banned, and the hydro-fluoro-olefin (HFO) R1234ze(E) has been indicated as an alternative due to its smaller global warming potential (GWP) and shorter atmospheric lifetime.

Condensation and evaporation of R32/R1234ze(E) and R744/R32/R1234ze(E) flow in horizontal microfin tubes

open access: yesCondensation and evaporation of R32/R1234ze(E) and R744/R32/R1234ze(E) flow in horizontal microfin tubes, 2015
The heat transfer characteristics of the low global warming potential refrigerant mixture R744/R32/R1234ze(E) in a horizontal microfin tube were investigated in this study. The condensation heat transfer coefficient of R744 /R32/R1234ze(E) (9/29/62 mass %) is somewhat lower than that of other mixtures, e.g., R744/R32/R1234ze(E) (4/43/53 mass %) and R32/

Theoretical analysis of R1234ze(E), R152a, and R1234ze(E)/R152a mixtures as replacements of R134a in vapor compression system [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2016
In this article, R1234ze(E), R152a, and three mixtures M1, M2, and M3 composed of R152a and R1234ze(E) (in the ratio of 60:40, 50:50, and 40:60, by mass, respectively) as drop-in replacements of R134a in vapor compression system were theoretically analyzed.

A comparative study of combined cycles for concentrated solar power for efficient power generation using low Global Warming Potential (GWP) fluids to reduce environmental effects

open access: yesIET Renewable Power Generation, Volume 17, Issue 16, Page 3741-3754, 7 December 2023., 2023
Low global warming potential (GWP) fluids were used to investigate strategies for reducing the effects of global warming and performance compared with hydro fluoro carbons (HFC) fluids. Four different combinations of the sCO2 cycle and ORC, including basic recuperated, pre‐compression, recompression with main compressor intercooling, and partial ...

Waste heat recovery of the hydrogen–water mixture from high‐temperature water electrolysis by cascade heat pump for steam generation

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 11, Issue 9, Page 3070-3081, September 2023., 2023
A cascade heat pump is used to absorb latent heat of steam condensation. After twice compressions, the temperature of the working fluid is sufficiently high to vaporize liquid water. The heat pump fully utilizes thermal energy instead of direct electric heating, saving 65% of power consumption. Abstract Waste heat recovery is common in high‐temperature

Analysis of low‐temperature pumped thermal energy storage systems based on a transcritical CO2 charging process

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 11, Issue 9, Page 3289-3306, September 2023., 2023
In this work, pumped thermal energy storage systems based on a transcritical CO2 charging process are investigated. A two‐zone water storage tank with a storage temperature of 115°C is used as thermal energy storage. For discharge, an Organic Rankine Cycle and, alternatively, a transcritical CO2 heat engine are investigated.

Mixture Condensation of Ethanol/Water and Ethanol/Siloxane in a Vertical Double Pipe

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, Volume 95, Issue 5, Page 724-731, May 2023., 2023
Experimental data is presented for mixture and pure fluid condensation within a wide composition range. Influential parameters for the heat transfer deterioration of mixtures are discussed. The results enable an explicit calculation of condensation heat transfer coefficients depending on the mixture composition.
