Thermo physical characteristics of Hydrocarbons

Selection of hydrocarbons as an environmentally friendly alternative refrigerant replacement for CFCs and HCFCs must consider several things including boiling point at normal pressure, volumetric capacity and energy efficiency. Boiling point must be considered to ensure whether the operating pressure is equal to the replacement of CFCs to avoid the need of high pressure equipment such as compressors. One of the hydrocarbon refrigerant is used as an example in this paper is Musicool. Physical properties of hydrocarbon refrigerants Musicool based testing laboratory, which indicates that the hydrocarbon Musicool (MC) could replace synthetic refrigerants (CFC, HCFC, HFC) directly without replacement refrigeration system components. MC-12 to replace R-12, MC-22, replacing R-22 and MC-134 to replace R-134a. Physical and thermodynamic properties of hydrocarbons Musicool gives performance better refrigeration system, compressor life durability, and energy efficient. Several parameters Musicool performance comparisons against synthetic refrigerants in refrigeration systems with load 1 TR at 100 oF and the condensation temperature of the evaporator temperature is 40 oF.
