Experimental Study of the Pressure Drop and Condensed Heat Transfer of R-406a Refrigerant in Tubes Equipped with Extended Surface of Twisted Fins in Different Steps and Lengths [PDF]
Having been developed in accordance with the Montreal Protocol, R134a has been proposed as a potential replacement for R12. In accordance with the Kyoto Protocol, the use of R134a, which has a significant global warming potential, must be restricted.

Carbon-ammonia pairs for adsorption refrigeration applications : ice making, air conditioning and heat pumping [PDF]
A thermodynamic cycle model is used to select an optimum adsorbent-refrigerant pair in respect of a chosen figure of merit that could be the cooling production (MJ m(-3)), the heating production (MJ m(-3)) or the coefficient of performance (COP).
