FROM PURE FLUIDS TO ZEOTROPIC AND AZEOTROPIC MIXTURES: THE EFFECTS OF REFRIGERANT-OIL SOLUBILITY ON SYSTEM PERFORMANCE

摘要

This paper highlights the effects of circulating compressor lubricants on the performance of vapour compression refrigeration systems. It will give a baseline case of R12 and a mineral oil and show to what degree the alternative refrigerants and their mixtures conform to this.
