Identifying the performance and losses of a scroll compressor with vapour injection and R1234ze(E) [version 2; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Research Europe, 2022
This work investigates a vapour injection scroll compressor integrated in a heat pump using the refrigerant R1234ze(E). The water-to-water heat pump was tested under a wide temperature range at the evaporator and condenser sides.

Investigation of low-GWP working fluids as substitutes for R245fa in organic Rankine cycle application [PDF]

open access: yesHeliyon
This study presents a thermo-economic assessment of three low-global-warming-potential (GWP) substitutes, R1233zd(E), R1234ze(Z) and R1234ze(E), for R245fa used in organic Rankine cycle (ORC) systems, considering two models with different heat sources ...

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 ...

Experimental investigation of flow boiling heat transfer and pressure drops characteristic of R1234ze(E), R600a, and a mixture of R1234ze(E)/R32 in a horizontal smooth tube

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2015
The saturated flow boiling heat transfer coefficients and frictional pressure drops characteristics of R1234ze(E), R600a, and L-41b (R1234ze(E)/R32 (27/73 mass %)) inside an 8 mm inner diameter horizontal tube were investigated.

Comparative assessment of condensation and pool boiling heat transfer on horizontal plain single tubes for R1234ze(E), R1234ze(Z), and R1233zd(E)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Refrigeration, 2016
Abstract The low-global warming potential (GWP) refrigerant of R1234ze(E) is considered to be a prospective alternative to conventional R134a for car air conditioners, whereas the isomer R1234ze(Z) and R1233zd(E) are anticipated to be the low-GWP alternatives to R245fa used in high-temperature heat pumps and organic Rankine cycles.

Functional Equations for Calculating the Properties of Low-GWP R1234ze(E) Refrigerant [PDF]

open access: yesEnergies, 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 ...

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

open access: yesApplied Thermal Engineering, 2017
Abstract 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.
