A thermodynamic analysis of refrigerants / Piotr A. Domanski in International journal of refrigeration, Vol. 38 (Février 2014) 

Public ISBD [article]  in International journal of refrigeration > Vol. 38 (Février 2014) . - pp. 71–79 Titre : A thermodynamic analysis of refrigerants : Performance limits of the vapor compression cycle Titre original : Une analyse thermodynamique des frigorigènes : limites des performances du cycle à compression de vapeur Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Piotr A. Domanski, Auteur ; J. Steven Brown, Auteur ; Jaehyeok Heo, Auteur Année de publication : 2014 Article en page(s) : pp. 71–79 Note générale : Refrigeration Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Coefficient  of  performance;  Evolutionary  algorithm;  Refrigerant;  Vapor  compression  cycle Résumé : This paper explores the thermodynamic performance limits of the vapor compression cycle. We have applied evolutionary algorithms to explore the performance of hypothetical refrigerants defined by the thermodynamic parameters used by the extended corresponding states model for fluid properties. We identified optimal values of these parameters required to reach the performance limits. The study confirmed the fundamental trade-off between the coefficient of performance (COP) and volumetric capacity, and indicated refrigerant critical temperature as the dominant parameter influencing the tradeoff. Thermodynamic performance limits depend on the operating conditions and the cycle design. These limits are represented by Pareto fronts developed for the objective functions COP and volumetric capacity. As expected, the performance of current refrigerants falls below the Pareto front limits. We demonstrate that for practical cycles the developed methodology and resulting Pareto fronts are more realistic benchmarks for the performance potentials of refrigerants than is COP alone, which is an efficiency only metric.
