This paper presents the performance assessment and working fluid selection for a novel integrated vapor compression cycle-organic Rankine cycle system (i-VCC-ORC), which recovers ultra-low-temperature waste heat rejected (50 °C) by condenser of (VCC). The analyses are carried out refrigeration capacity (heat input) 35kW along with component sizing organic (ORC). effects operational parameters o...

Ammonia/water absorption chillers are driven by low-grade heat and cover wide refrigeration temperatures. This paper analyses single-stage ammonia/water chillers. A numerical model was developed based on the exchanger performance. The captures variational performances describes actual cycle with varying boundary conditions. detrimental effects of refrigerant impurity were analysed quantitativel...

This paper discusses the thermoacoustic refrigeration cycle and how it can be applied to real world uses, particularly its use in household refrigeration systems. The commercial viability of this technology is determined by comparing it to a vapour compression system. The paper has two goals: to determine practical applications where thermoacoustic refrigeration may prove a strong rival to curr...

To improve the performance of vapour compression refrigeration cycles, inclusion a thermoelectric subcooler for low-medium power units has been focus recent studies due to its robustness, compactness and simplicity operation. In systems, it demonstrated that heat exchangers used in hot cold side modules have critical impact system. This influence not yet studied subcooling systems cycles. work,...

This paper describes a multi-evaporator vapor compression model capable of simulating the dynamic behaviour of transport refrigeration systems. A discrete multi-zone control volume approach is utilised for modelling the condenser and evaporators. All other major refrigeration components including compressor, expansion valves, receiver, pressure-regulating valves are modeled using time-dependent...

This paper deals with a multi-objective optimization of a novel micro solar driven combined power and ejector refrigeration system (CPER). The system combines an organic Rankine cycle (ORC) with an ejector refrigeration cycle to generate electricity and cold capacity simultaneously. Major thermodynamic parameters, namely turbine inlet temperature, turbine inlet pressure, turbine back pressure, ...

In this paper a model for the performance prediction and optimization of air coolers for indirect refrigeration systems is presented. The model applies for finned rube air coolers operating under frosting conditions and considers the transient heat and mass transfer between humid air and air cooler surfaces. The model is extended with an energy consumption analysis for the compression refrigera...

Conventional supermarket refrigeration systems are responsible for considerable CO2 emissions due to high energy consumption and large quantities of refrigerant leakage. In the effort to conserve energy and reduce environmental impacts, an efficient design tool for the analysis, evaluation and comparison of the performance of alternative system designs and controls is required. This paper provi...

A performance analysis on a vapour compression refrigeration system with various refrigerants mixture of R152a, RE170, R600a, and R290 were done for various mixture ratios and their results were compared with R134a as possible alternative replacement. The results showed that all of the alternative refrigerants investigated in the analysis except R431A, [R 152a (29%), R290 (71%)] have a slightly...
