f liquid g gas ABSTRACT The experimental apparatus was build according to the national standards of India.. The performance of the refrigeration system depends upon the heat transfer capacity of the refrigerant. Normally R12, R22, R600, R600a and 134a are used as a refrigerant. This refrigerant heat transfer capacity is not so good and increase power consumption. Due to these limitation nanoflu...

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...

A combined refrigeration and power cycle, which uses ammonia-water as the working fluid, is proposed by combining Rankine and vapour absorption cycles with an advantage of varying refrigeration capacity to power output ratio. The study investigates the usage of low temperature heat sources for the cycle operation. Results of parametric analysis are presented, which show the scope for optimizati...

The most critical problem in the world is to meet the energy demand, because of steadily increasing energy consumption. Refrigeration systems` electricity consumption has big portion in overall consumption. Therefore, considerable attention has been given to refrigeration capacity modulation system in order to decrease electricity consumption of these systems. Capacity modulation is used to mee...

Direct expansion (DX) refrigeration technology is almost exclusively used in multi-temperature transport refrigeration systems. Multi-temperature systems use up to three evaporators, requiring large refrigerant charges and system pressure control to operate over a wide range of set-point conditions. Despite incremental design improvements over the past decade, environmental and control issues c...

The energy consumption of artificial ground freezing applications results from the necessary (consumed) refrigeration capacity. The determination of the refrigeration capacity requires the numerical modeling of heat transfer processes within the freeze pipe. Therefore a new module has been implemented in the Finite Difference Program SHEMAT. An approach for calculating the heat transfer process...

in this study, fluid flow and energy separation in a micro-scale ranque-hilschvortex tube are numerically investigated. the flow is assumed as 2d, steady,compressible ideal gas, and shear-stress-transport sst k-w is found to be a bestchoice for modeling of turbulence phenomena. the results are in a good agreementwith the experimental results reported in the literature. the results show that flu...

The energy crisis in recent years has led to the use of thermodynamic cycles that work based on renewable energies. Low-temperature cycles—such as organic cycles—are suitable strategies for the application of renewable energies. The present study proposes a novel cycle through the integration of a two-stage compression refrigeration cycle with a combined Rankine power and ejector refrigerat...

The use of carbon dioxide (CO2) as a refrigerant is recently considered for an increasing number of various applications including low capacity transcritical processes. Due to the fluid properties of CO2, the pressure ratio of the refrigeration process is rather low compared to common refrigeration processes while the pressure difference is high. Furthermore, the volumetric capacity of CO2 is h...

The thermodynamic and thermo-economics models for three-pressure absorption-ejector hybrid refrigeration system are set up. The thermo-economical analysis model of the system is considered in two cases of high-temperature heat resources: waste heat resources and natural gas fuel are presented. The performances of the system in two modes of the running hours per year (600h and 1000h) are calcula...
