Comparative Performance of HFO Blends in a Condenser - Paper 2 Research Laboratory Tests
Users and designers of commercial refrigeration systems are considering alternatives to traditional HFC refrigerants due to the F Gas Phase down.
This paper presents the results of an independent investigation of performance of R448a and R449a in a condenser, at typical operating conditions, for commercial systems. The performance is compared to R404a, the refrigerant they are designed to replace without any significant plant overhaul.
