There is a demand for reduced power consumption in the vapor compression refrigeration cycle. Coefficient of performance of window-air conditioners considerably decreases and power consumption increases under very hot conditions. These problems have encouragecl studies aimed at improving the performance of window-air-conditioners by enhancing the heat transfer rate in the condenser. In this ar...

A dual-loop cycle for a domestic refrigerator-freezer (RF) has a large energy saving potential because of lower compression ratio due to higher evaporating temperature in the fresh food compartment (R)-operation, and the individual optimization flexibility for each loop, compared to a conventional refrigeration cycle. In this study, the optimization of the dual-loop cycle was carried out. The o...

The temperature of an electronics device rises fairly linearly with increasing device heat flux. This relationship is especially problematic for defense electronics, where heat dissipation is projected to exceed 1000W/cm in the near future. This paper study explored the benefit of cooling the electronics device using indirect refrigeration cooling system .In this system the heat sink in a prima...

This paper describes thermal modeling of Vapor Compression Refrigeration System using R134a in primary circuit and AL2O3-Water based nanofluids in secondary circuit. The model uses information of the secondary fluids input conditions geometric characteristics of the system, size of nanoparticles and the compressor speed to predict the secondary fluids output temperatures, the operating pressure...

Abstract In this study, a parametric analysis was performed of supercritical organic Rankine cycle driven by solar parabolic trough collectors (PTCs) coupled with vapour-compression refrigeration simultaneously for cooling and power production. Thermal efficiency, exergy destruction the coefficient performance cogeneration system were considered to be parameters. A computer program developed in...

VapCyc is a vapor compression refrigeration simulation tool which features charge management and component inter-changeability. In addition to the four basic cycle components, additional components, such as pipes, bypass valves and various auxiliary heat exchangers can be added to the system at run-time, rather than design time, making the simulation very user-friendly. The simulation is achiev...

The refrigeration cycle with the thro~tling device has moe work power consumption and less refrigeration capacity than tha~ with the expander. It is S':Jggested that substituting the expander for the throttling device in the refrigeration cycle should be the efficient way for saving the energy of the refrigeration system. Up to now, the design and ~anufacturing of the two-phase expander seems t...

Abstract: Minimizing the work consumed in refrigeration system is the most effective measure to reduce the cost of products in sub-ambient chemical processes. The introduction of mixed working fluids into refrigeration system in place of pure working fluids is a recent advancement applied in the field. Due to the lack of systematic design method for Mixed Refrigerant Cycle (MRC), conventional a...

This paper presents the analysis results of R429A, R430A, R431A and R435A as drop in substitute for R152a at various evaporating temperature with condenser temperature 30°C, 40°C and 50°C. A theoretical study of thermodynamic properties such as pressure, density, and specific volume, latent heat of vaporization compression index, and critical values are done. The theoretical performance of vapo...
