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]
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) class, which can be used on their own or in mixtures.

This review highlights how nano oils and eco‐friendly nano refrigerants enhance energy‐efficient refrigeration by improving thermal conductivity, lubrication, and system performance. The integration of rheological and tribological testing confirms reduced compressor work, better heat transfer, and higher COP using sustainable, low‐GWP refrigerants for ...

ABSTRACT This study investigates binary zeotropic mixtures of R744 (CO₂) blended with eco‐friendly refrigerants for medium‐high temperature heat pumps, comparing them with conventional R744/R134a systems. All mixtures meet 60–80 K temperature lift requirements under low‐temperature conditions. A genetic algorithm optimized system parameters using fixed

ABSTRACT This paper proposes an ejector‐expansion refrigeration cycle (EERC) with two evaporating temperatures to recover partial expansion work and greatly reduces the throttling loss of the other expansion valve connected to the evaporator compared with the conventional bievaporator refrigeration cycle (CBEC).

Effect of Condenser Fouling on Performance of Vapor Compression Refrigeration System
Effect of condenser fouling is evaluated on the performance of a vapour compression system with refrigerants HFO1234yf and HFO1234ze as an alternative to HFC134a. The condenser coolant temperature has been varied between 35 and 40°C to evaluate the effect of fouling at different condenser temperatures.
