Limited options for low-global-warming-potential refrigerants
Hydrofluorocarbons, currently used as refrigerants in air-conditioning systems, are potent greenhouse gases, and their contribution to climate change is projected to increase. Future use of the hydrofluorocarbons will be phased down and, thus replacement fluids must be found. Here we show that only a few pure fluids possess the combination of chemical, environmental, thermodynamic, and safety p...

The Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI) recently completed the second phase of its Low Global Warming Potential Alternative Refrigerants Evaluation Program (Low-GWP AREP). This industry-wide cooperative research program identified and evaluated promising alternative refrigerants over the past five years. Seventeen low-GWP refrigerants were tested during the second phas...
متن کاملAn Evaluation of the Environmental Impact of Different Commercial Supermarket Refrigeration Systems Using Low Global Warming Potential Refrigerants
Commercial refrigeration systems consumed 1.21 Quads of primary energy in 2010 and are known to be a major source for refrigerant charge leakage into the environment. Thus, it is important to study the environmental impact of commercial supermarket refrigeration systems and improve their design to minimize any adverse impacts. The system's Life Cycle Climate Performance (LCCP) was presented as ...
