`ABSTRACT
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Production restriction of CFC's which are used for refrigerators and air
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`conditioners has been implemented through the international mutual agreement
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`approved by the Montreal Protocol. Due to the less impact on the ozone layer
`
`
`
`
`depletion, alternative refrigerants for CFC‘s are R-123, R-22 and R-134a.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`However, HCFC refrigerants R-123 and R-22 do not completely prevent the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`ozone layer depletion. This paper presents the investigation results of HFC
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`refrigerants R-125, R-143a, R-152a and R-32 which prevent the ozone layer
`
`
`
`depletion and are candidates for alternatives of Cl’-"C's and HCFC's.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`The test results of thermal stability of these refrigerants are similar to
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`those of R-12 and R-22.
`The test results show that each refrigerant has
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`different material compatibility.
`The test results of lubricant solubility show
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`that synthetic oils are soluble in these refrigerants, but
`the mineral oils
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`currently in use for CFC's and I-ICFC's are not. The refrigeration performance
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`based on the calculated thermodynamic properties corresponds with that of the
`experimental results.
`
`
`
`INTRODUCTION
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`these HFC refrigerants are drawing attention as candidates for
`Recently,
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`alternatives without the ozone layer depletion. However, the data are insufficient
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`for officially adopting them as alternatives.

`
`Lubricant solubility
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`We conducted the test with 4 kinds of oil by varying the mixture ratio of
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`oil and refrigerant from 20 to 80wt.% and the temperature of the mixture from
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`-70 to 90 °C. The oils used for the test are polyalkylene glycol (PAG), ester
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`and perfluoro ether (PFE) which were exclusively developed by oil makers for
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`R-134a and the mineral oil currently used for R-12 and R22. Table 2 shows
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`the physical properties of oils.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`The results of oil solubility test show that the mineral oils currently
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`are not
`soluble in
`these refrigerants within the
`limit of
`in use
`these
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`experimental conditions.
`Figures 1--3 show the results of other lubricants.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Only PI-"E is soluble in R-143a. PAG and ester are soluble in R32 and R-152a.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`All of the tested synthetic oils are soluble in R-125 and R-134a.

`
`
`Table 3 shows the test conditions. The ‘oils used for this test are soluble
`
`
`
`
`
`in these refrigerants.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Figure 4 shows the test results of thermal stability. According to the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`analysis of the refrigerant decomposition using an ion chromatography under the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`30-day heating test, the experimental results show that each tested refrigerant has
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`thermal stability similar to that of R-12 and R-22. However, each refrigerant has
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`different catalysis effect depending on the material.
`
`
`Material compatibility
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`factor
`Material
`for evaluating the
`an important
`compatibility is
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`reliability of refrigerating systems. Therefore, we investigated the material
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`compatibility of polymeric materials such as plastics and elastomers which are
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`commonly used for air-conditioners and refrigerators.
`The evaluation of
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`material compatibility is based on the amount of the refrigerant absorbed by
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`the material during the 2 week test of the material being immersed in the 50°C
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`saturated liquid refrigerant and the amount of the material absorbed by the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`refrigerant after this test and until
`the refrigerant evaporates out under the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`atmospheric pressure.

`and the test
`conditions.

`Each refrigerant has different

`
`
`material compatibility. Epoxy resin has relatively strong solubility in these
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`refrigerants. Therefore, epoxy resin is not desirable for the use with those
`
`
`refrigerants.

`Performance

`
`The refrigeration performance based on the thermodynamic properties

`
`
`
`
`
`
`which are the calculated results using Mark O. McLinden's equation of critical
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`parameters, vapor pressure and the ideal gas specific heat capacity.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Figure 11 shows the total system for testing refrigeration performance.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`A rotary type compressor and double-tube type heat exchangers are used for the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`test. Lubricants used for the test are PFE for R-143a and PAG for the other
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`refrigerants.

`results of refrigeration
`theoretical and experimental
`Table 4 shows
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`performance under the same operating conditions. It shows the capacity and COP
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`ratio of R-134a against
`the other refrigerants and the discharge temperature
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`difference between R-134a and the other refrigerants. The refrigerants of lower
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`boiling point such as R-32 gives higher capacity than those of higher boiling
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`point such as R-152a. Figure 12 shows the calculated refrigeration capacity of
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`these refrigerants under various evaporating and condensing temperatures. Due to
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`high suction gas density,
`refrigeration capacity increases
`as evaporating
`
`
`
`temperature rises.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`the calculated COP of "R-152a is the highest
`Table 4 shows that
`in
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`comparison with other refrigerants and that of R-125 is
`the lowest. The
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`experimental COPS of R-125, R-143a and R-32 correspond with the calculated
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`COP, but those of R—l52a and R—134a do not correspond. The compressor used
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`for this test is for R-22. Therefore, the experimental COP of R-125 which has
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`similar property of R-22 correspond to the calculated COP. However,
`the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`property of R-152a is not similar to R-22. Therefore, the experimental COPS of
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`R—l52a and R-134a do not correspond to the calculated COP. If a compressor is
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`designed specifically for these refrigerants,
`the calculated COP is likely to
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`correspond with the experimental one. Figure 13 shows calculation data of COP
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`under various evaporating and condensing temperatures. Under these operating
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`conditions, as evaporating temperature rises, the COP of R-125 decreases and the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`COP of R-152a increases.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`The discharge temperature of R-32 is the highest of all and those of
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`R~1S2a, R-143a R-134a and R-125 follow. Therefore, R-32 is not desirable for
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`practical application from the point view of high discharge pressure and
`
`
`
`
`
`
`temperature.

`
`CONCLUSION
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`The preliminary investigation results show that I-IFC refrigerants such as
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`R-125, R-143a, R-152a and R-32 are prospective alternatives for CFC's and
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`HCFC's without ozone layer depletion.
`'
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Though the mineral oils which are currently in use for CFC's and I-lCFC's
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`cannot be used as lubricant oil for these refrigerants, the tested synthetic oils
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`(such as PAG, PFE and ester oils) are soluble. The thermal stability is similar to
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`those of R-12 and R-22. These refrigerants have good material compatibility with
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`the tested polymeric materials except for epoxy resin. R-152a has the highest
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`COP, but the refrigeration capacity per unit displacement is low. R-32 gives the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`highest refrigeration capacity per unit displacement, but the discharge pressure
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`and temperature are higher than those of other refrigerants.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Therefore, this investigation results at this stage do not conclude which
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`I-IFC refrigerant is the most suitable as an alternative refrigerant. The future
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`investigation includes the safety test to confirm the toxicity and flammability,
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`the test of R-32 mixed with other refrigerants to confirm the possibility of
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`this refrigerant as an alternative,
`the test of these refrigerants for obtaining
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`more details of properties for finalization and the practical
`test
`to confirm
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`the material compatibility and the lubricant issues over a long period.
