Full Description

Correlations have been developed for thermodynamic properties of FC134a (R1341) and FC152a (R152a). Detailed thermodynamic tables for saturated liquid and saturated vapour, as well as pressure-enthalpy diagrams, have been generated by using these correlations. The performance of a theoretical refrigeration cycle using these new stratospherically safe substances has been compared with the performance of a cycle using conventional CFC12.

KEYWORDS: R12, R134a, R152a, refrigerants, thermodynamic cycles, tables, cyclic, fluorocarbons, safety, atmosphere, environment.
