Performance of hydrocarbon refrigerants in a refrigerator with liquid line magnet and CNT nano-lubricant [PDF]

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
The issues of flammability associated with A3-class hydrocarbon-based refrigerants are controllable by limiting their mass charges. However, these reductions in their mass charge below certain limits deteriorate their performance efficiency.

Thermodynamic Analysis of Low GWP Refrigerant Mixtures in a Refrigerator as Replacement to R-134A [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mechanical Engineering, 2019
Chlorofluorocarbons and hydro chlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) are replaced by hydroflourocarbons (HFCs) which is not harmful to the ozone layer. However, few of HFCs have a relatively high global warming potential (GWP) and are subject to further examination

Study on the Replacement of Rail Vehicle Air-Conditioning Refrigerants with Low-GWP Refrigerant Mixtures

open access: yesEnergies
This study addresses the urgent demand for low-GWP refrigerant alternatives in rail vehicle air-conditioning systems by proposing a novel binary mixture, ZT01 (R13I1/R32 = 0.6/0.4 by mass), as a replacement for R407C. A comprehensive evaluation combining

Performance analysis of a retrofitted refrigerator using eco-friendly refrigerant [PDF]

open access: yesThe Holistic Approach to Environment, 2023
The use of refrigerants with a global warming potential (GWP) greater than 150 is banned in small and medium-sized refrigerators in accordance with the European F-Gas policy. Therefore, the suitability of retrofitting an existing refrigerator using a low

Energy Analysis of HFC-152a, HFO-1234yf and HFC/HFO Mixtures as a Direct Substitute to HFC-134a in a Domestic Refrigerator

open access: yesJournal of Mechanical Engineering, 2021
The Kyoto protocol emphasized the need of replacement of HFC refrigerant due to their high GWP values that causes pollution in the environment. So in this paper the refrigerants R1234yf, R152a and HFOs/HFCs mixtures of R134a/R152a/R1234yf such as ARM42 ...

Potential reduction in emissions after replacement of automobile air conditioning refrigerants in China

open access: yesEnergy Reports, 2022
For more than a decade, R134a has been the most widely used refrigerant in automobile air conditioners in China. Although R134a does not damage the ozone layer, it contributes to the greenhouse effect.

Silk Replaces Refrigeration [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2012
Bioengineering Both vaccines and antibiotics lessen the burden of disease—one before the fact and one after. Successful treatment often requires a “cold chain,” in which the vaccine or antibiotic must be refrigerated from production to patient. Failure to sustain the cold chain results in loss of therapeutic efficacy, but maintaining it can be ...

High-global warming potential F-gas emissions in California: comparison of ambient-based versus inventory-based emission estimates, and implications of refined estimates. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
To provide information for greenhouse gas reduction policies, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) inventories annual emissions of high-global-warming potential (GWP) fluorinated gases, the fastest growing sector of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions ...
