Could R32 be a viable alternative to R410A?

摘要

The flammable refrigerant R32 could be an attractive low-GWP solution for mainstream air-conditioning and heat pump applications with performance comparable to R410A, according to latest research. The research carried out by Hung Pham and Rajan Rajendran of Emerson Climate Technologies evaluated the potential for the mildly flammable, A2L-rated, R32 and the HFOs 1234yf and 1234ze in air conditioning systems. It came out in favour of R32 in terms of both efficiency and cost as a suitable replacement for R410A.
