Two-phase heat transfer in small passages and microfinned surfaces - Fundamentals and applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Micro channels and internally finned tubes are increasingly being utilized in the evaporators and condensers of refrigeration systems. The adoption of such geometries in the development of micro-cooling systems is first discussed in this paper.

Exploratory Study on Carbon Dioxide Blends With Low‐GWP Working Fluids for Medium and High‐Temperature Heat Pumps Under Step Pressure

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 21, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
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

Speed of sound in liquid R134a

open access: yesInternational Journal of Refrigeration, 1992
Abstract The speed of sound for liquid R134a (1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane) has been measured along isotherms at temperatures from close to the triplee point to above the critical temperature (180–380 K) at pressures from near saturation to 70 MPa. The measurements were made by using a pulse-echo-overlap technique at 3 MHz.

Characteristics of Enhanced Heat Transfer of Nanofluid in Microchannels Under Electric and Magnetic Co‐Excitation

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 20, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Due to its small size, microchannel heat exchangers are widely used in fine engineering fields such as electronic equipment. In this paper, the boiling heat transfer characteristics of refrigerants and nanofluids in microchannels are studied by applying electric fields, magnetic fields, and electromagnetic synergistic fields.

Experimental Analysis of R134a/LPG as Replacement of R134a in a Vapor-Compression Refrigeration System

open access: yesInternational Journal of Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration, 2017
This paper presents an experimental analysis of a vapor compression refrigeration system (VCRS) using the mixture of R134a and LPG with mass fractions of 28:72 as an alternative to R134a. In this work, we compare the energy performance of both refrigerants, R134a/LPG (28:72) and R134a, in a monitored vapor compression refrigeration system under a wide

Multi‐Objective Optimization of a Climate‐Responsive Green Hydrogen‐Based Multi‐Generation System with Advanced Energy Storage and Heat Recovery

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 9, Issue 10, October 2025.
A novel hydrogen‐based multi‐generation system integrates CAES, PEME, and ORC for climate‐responsive power generation. Using response surface methodology, the system is optimized for energy efficiency, emissions, and cost. Results highlight its strong performance in temperate climates and its potential for modular, scalable deployment.
