Specific embodiment is described in detail
It is described below the concrete form of evaporative condenser, and the composition portion for forming refrigeration or air conditioning system/circulation The evaporative condenser technique that divides.
The evaporative condenser embodiment for being labeled as 10 and 100 is shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 A and 3B.Evaporation is cold Condenser embodiment 10 and 100 can use chemical refrigerant and natural refrigerant (as described above).Fig. 4 is related to embodiment to 11 Described in embodiment.
In Fig. 1 to Fig. 3, the similar assembly of evaporative condenser 10 and 100 is similarly numbered, but the embodiment party of Fig. 3 100 are with the addition of in formula.It is to be further understood that for simplicity, below describe and do not redescribe those and reappear Similar or identical component in Fig. 3 embodiment, therefore should be considered as had been noted above.
Fig. 1 includes two or more nested condensate pans tube banks 12, the condensation with preferred evaporative condenser 10 in Fig. 2 System refrigerant selected by (for condensing) with flowing in coil pipe bundle.The condensate pans tube bank 12 is with rectangular airflow air chamber 13 Form is arranged in condensate pans area under control.
Evaporative condenser 10 also includes the device of 14 form of nozzle, and the nozzle 14 is formed in isocon 15, for leading to Cross and sprayed (for example, with shown 3kg/m with the water of vertebral body 162Speed) condensation tube bank 12 with moistening they.Or, can make Use moisture circulation road, for example those have jagged edge or internal slot.
Nozzle 14 is arranged along the direction contrary with shown air current flow and ejects water in condensate pans tube bank 12.
Evaporative condenser 10 also includes the fan being arranged in the fan hub in upper end of condenser portion.Embodiment in Fig. 3 In, this set actual displayed is the fan 118 (referring to Fig. 3 A) in the fan hub 120 of condenser the top.In Fig. 1 and Same or similar setting can be adopted in the embodiment of Fig. 2.In this respect, fan bypasses air through air intake 21 and is inhaled Enter in air intake room 22, the air intake room 22 is towards the lower end of condenser 10.
In the embodiment of Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, air-flow A is with such as 8.1m3The volume flow rate of/s is entered, and passes through screen cloth first Filter, subsequently into air intake room 22, causes air-flow to flow up by fan afterwards and restrains 12 by condensate pans.By wind The air pressure difference that fan is obtained can maintain such as 160Pa.
In the embodiment of fig. 3, air-flow A is entered with the wet bulb temperature of the speed of such as 3m/s and such as 23 DEG C, first According to atmospheric pollution by optional granular membrane 124 and air inlet duct 126, subsequently into inlet plenum 122, afterwards by fan 118 cause air-flow to flow up and restrain 112 by condensate pans.
Evaporative condenser 10 further includes dehydrater 30, and the dehydrater is placed in condenser adjacent to upper end of condenser Interior.Once air-flow flows through condensate pans tube bank 12 and nozzle 14, dehydrater 30 just eliminates the free water in air-flow.
In the embodiment of Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, the evaporative condenser 10 includes rectangular airflow air chamber 13, followed by with The splitting streams room of 40 form of frustum air chamber.Rectangular airflow air chamber 13 can be foursquare, rectangle etc. hollow section Face (for example, bending or welding plastics or sheet metal/sheet material).Shunting air chamber 40 can also be hollow section (for example, Bending or welding plastics or sheet metal/sheet material), but define the frustum as defined.When for example air chamber 13 has During square-section, shunting air chamber 40 includes square or rectangle frustum.
However, in the embodiment of fig. 3, evaporative condenser 100 includes the middle square of condensate pans tube bank 112 using being located at Air-flow accumulation regions 135 and airflow diversion area 140 on 113 either side of shape air-flow air chamber.The air chamber 113 is with constant transversal Face area, and air-flow accumulation regions 135 and airflow diversion area 140 are interconnected.The middle air flow air chamber 113 still can be for just Square, rectangle etc. hollow section (such as thin plate/sheet material).During air-flow accumulation regions 135 and airflow diversion area 140 still can be (the such as thin plate/sheet material) in empty section, but each is formed as the frustum as defined.For example, when mesozone 113 has side During tee section, aggregation air chamber and shunting air chamber each may include square or rectangle frustum.
In the embodiment of Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, fan operation causes air-flow A with respect to dehydrater at condensate pans tube bank 12 30 already at higher speed.After air-flow A flows through gel coil pipe bundle 12, splitting streams air chamber 40 is flowed into by water vertebral body 16. Due to the cross section that splitting streams air chamber 40 is gradually increased, air-flow can be decelerated to before which travels to and through dehydrater 30 can The speed of acceptance.Evaporative condenser 10, the speed being particularly built into splitting streams air chamber 40 is in and can remove from air-flow Meet the level of the free water of environmental requirement, minimum.At this point, the airflow rate at dehydrater 30 can be decelerated to about 3.5m/s.
As can be seen that dehydrater 30 is arranged in against 40 exit of splitting streams air chamber, thus air-flow does not allow to carry out not Necessary deceleration.
Therefore, the embodiment of Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 does not adopt air-flow collecting region.Conversely, from air intake room 22 and by cold The air velocity of solidifying coil pipe bundle 12 is about 5m/s, until air-flow reaches splitting streams air chamber 40, therefore air-flow is in dehydrater 30 Place is gradually decelerated to about 3.5m/s.
However, in the embodiment of fig. 3, condensate pans tube bank 112 is placed in middle air flow area 113.Build these areas Domain causes air-flow A to flow through, and air-flow accelerates (for example, about 5m/s) in air-flow collecting region 135 and reaches positioned at middle air flow gas Condensate pans tube bank 112 in room 113.After condensate pans tube bank 112 is flowed through, air-flow A flows into splitting streams area 140, by water vertebra Body 16, and reach the front reduction gear of dehydrater 130.Again, dehydrater 130 is arranged in against 140 exit of splitting streams air chamber.
Air-flow collecting region 135 is built into and air-flow A can be caused for example to accelerate in the way of being gradually increased.On the contrary, air-flow divides Stream area 140 is built into and air-flow A can be caused for example to slow down in the way of being gradually lowered.It means that with respect to air inlet import Room 122 is also by the air velocity of dehydrater 130, by middle air flow area 113 and fast by the air of condensate pans tube bank 112 Degree increases.For example, in shown construction, the air speed in middle air flow area 113 is about the 3.5m/s sky by dehydrater The twice of gas speed, is~5m/s (i.e. about high 45%).
In any embodiment, and the result of the airflow rate as the increase by condensate pans tube bank 12,112, It has surprisingly been found that can adopt that there is with respect to dehydrater 30,130 the condensate pans tube bank for reserving that area reduces.Make Further result for the airflow rate of this increase, it has therefore been surprisingly found that need less condenser coil to can reach phase Same condenser heat dispersion.
As a result, it is possible to more inexpensive evaporative condenser is produced, because condensate pans are restrained equivalent to this condenser only The part of one most expensive.Or, except being used for coil pipe bundle 12,112 using known heavy wall hot dipping galvanized carbon steel condensing tube, permissible Coil pipe bundle 12,112 is formed using more expensive and/or firmer material (such as stainless steel tube).In this case, as a result Longer coil pipe life-span, less corrosion is obtained, and if desired, obtains the tube wall material thin for coil pipe Shu Zhonggeng Material.In this respect, coil pipe bundle 12,112 may include stainless steel tube, and such as external diameter is 4.76-31.8mm and thickness is 0.5-1.6mm 304 or 316 rustless steels.Observation shows this kind of pipe compared with known plating mild steel condenser coil, functional.By so The corrosion resistance that provides of stainless steel tube material and the refrigerant pressure capacity of chemical resistance and increase also allow for natural system Cryogen such as propane and/or iso-butane Hydrocarbon, CO2, ammonia etc. be used for evaporative condenser 10,100.
The cold-producing medium that is to increase of another result of the airflow rate for increasing on condenser coil can pass through condensate pans restrain 12, 112, because larger air velocity can result in the condensation of relatively large amount of cold-producing medium.
Condenser 10 also includes that the water of 50 form of pond of the base portion (that is, adjacent) positioned at air intake room 22 is collected Area.The excess water spray for having passed through or from condenser coil is collected in the pond 50.
In order to maximize condenser efficiency, condenser 10 also additionally includes a recirculating system, the recirculating system For the water of collection is recycled to isocon 15 with supply nozzle 14.In this respect, recirculating system includes pump 52, for inciting somebody to action The water of collection is pumped via pipes into isocon 15.Water is extracted out from pond 50 by pump 52 via discharge pipe 54.Then pipeline section 56 is conveyed Extend from pump discharge to be connected with isocon 15.
The recirculating system also includes water replensiher 58 (for example, with 383kg/h), for keeping predetermined in pond 50 The water of amount is so as to effective operation of evaporative condenser.This supplementary water may include to be removed the confession of the water of (capture) by dehydrater 30 Should.
In the version of the evaporative condenser shown in the details in Fig. 2, condenser 10 can also further include that side is changed Hot cell 60.Water in pond 50 can be pumped via pump 52 and enter into and through heat exchange unit 60, then before being recycled Isocon 15 is recycled to by delivery pipe section 56.This unit can also be assembled in the embodiment of Fig. 3.
In the version, in condenser tube condense cold-producing medium can also transmit via conveying pipe of refrigerant 62 and By heat exchange unit 60, to carry out heat exchange with recirculation water in pond 50.In heat exchange unit 60, relatively cool But the water in pond can sub-cooled condensation cold-producing medium, for example, be cooled to about 26.5 DEG C from 30 DEG C.This can carry further The operating efficiency of high refrigeration system.Cold-producing medium (for example, the CO of heat exchange unit 60 is left with current 642) can be at one supercool Temperature (for example, 26.5 DEG C or so).
Embodiment
The non-limiting example of the condenser and technique will be provided now, to describe the theoretical base of condenser and technique Plinth, and more fully understand the condenser in work and technique.
Embodiment 1- process planning model
Develop subcritical CO2The Application Design model of condensation evaporation condenser, as shown in Fig. 1 to 3.More specifically, To by evaporative condenser technology in subcritical CO2Benefit in condensation application is checked.This benefit includes:Grasp with Trans-critical cycle Compare operation and the operation cost of the design pressure, the energy consumption for reducing and reduction of reduction.It is clear that hot gas defrosting also may be used To become subcritical CO2The standard feature of refrigeration plant operation.
However, being pointed out initially that, under 24 DEG C of air inlet wet bulb temperature, ammonia can be in evaporative condenser, at 30 DEG C Condensation.In designing a model for exploitation, as a result show, for subcritical CO under 30 DEG C (being less than critical point 1.1K)2Condensation Evaporative condenser can be designed for 24 DEG C of wet bulb.
Secondly, it is noted that the average weather conditions in most of Europe area, including Spain, Italy, Greece and soil Its temperature climate condition of ear, is suitable for evaporative condenser and condenses supercritical CO at 30 DEG C2.We also noted that, Canada, The U.S. and the most area of China and the major part Australia area below the tropic of Capricorn also have and are suitable for super facing Boundary CO2The weather of condensation evaporation condenser application.Supercritical CO2Thermodynamics and transport property at 30 DEG C significantly become with temperature Change.Therefore, these changes also show to CO in particular design2The impact of temperature curve, heat transfer and the pressure loss.
For example, the investigation to average weather conditions shows, most of Europe area, including Spain, Italy, Greece and Turkey, in many places, under 30 DEG C or lower of condensation temperature, has in 100% time and evaporates under critical condition Condenser can be used to condense CO2Weather.For example, unique 5% design position of the wet bulb temperature incidence rate more than 24 DEG C in Europe For osmanli Ya Dana (wherein, 1 and 2.5% wet bulb incidence rate design level be 26 DEG C).In the Salonika of Greece, 1% wet bulb design incidence rate is at 25 DEG C, but 2.5% and 5% wet bulb design incidence rate is at 24 DEG C.Following highest 1% wet bulb design incidence rate level is for occurring in Gibraltar, Barcelona, Valencia, Milan, Istanbul and Yi Zi 24 DEG C of Mill.
Finally, it was concluded that, in temperate zone and many subtropical climates, using CO2Evaporative condenser can make Obtain CO2Cold-producing medium generally existing as chemical refrigerant, and when need used in indirect application when, can successfully with Ammonia competition (the warm refrigeration of the confession of such as office building and hospital).
Worked as CO before about 20 years2When refrigeration is recovered, air cooling gas cooling is almost commonly used (by water to be sprayed onto Heat-insulated auxiliary on the gas-cooled air intlet surface of finned coil).It should be noted that this causes actually all CO2System Cooling system is needed with Trans-critical cycle mode operation, because air chilling temperature is near or above 31.1 DEG C of CO2Critical temperature.
Generally, the summer from air cooling gas cooler designs CO2Discharge temperature is higher than critical temperature, and this causes Compressor needs to run under the pressure of 90bar or higher, to guarantee rational COP.Trans-critical cycle CO2The summer design of compressor COP is usually less than the COP of air cooling HFC or evaporation cooling ammonia system.
Therefore, it is suggested that the temperature of condenser cooling medium is reduced to the completely subcritical CO of permission2The level of kind of refrigeration cycle. This is realized by evaporative condenser, wherein in the case of air cooling condenser or gas cooler, surrounding air wet bulb Temperature (WB) is effective coolant temperature, rather than surrounding air dry bulb (DB) temperature.
Produced problem includes to supply water, with the needs of water and water process, and according to current by some compressors supplier Regulation control that minimum condensation temperature is carried out.Another problem is the control strategy to accidental Trans-critical cycle condition.For solution These problems of determining propose suggestion.
CO 2 The evaluation model of evaporative condenser
Evaluate embodiment
Fig. 4 shows the schematic flow diagram of the evaporative condenser that will be described with now.In the flow chart of figure 4, water Recirculation in tube bank so that spraying coolant-temperature gage is identical with tank water temperature.
The parameter of regulation is:(a) air velocity and wet bulb and dry-bulb temperature;(b) spraying rate of flow of water;(c) beam tube size, and (d) CO that leaves away comprising saturated liquid under 30 DEG C and 7.2MPa2.
Quality and the energy balance in vapotron
Qureshi (2006) and Heyns (2009) disclose the Nonlinear differential eguations of five simultaneous, describe evaporation Air-Water in cooler-process liquids interact.
By using quadravalence Runge-Kutta programming used in the VBA of the Excel electrical form of Microsoft These equations of program solution, the electrical form have be divided into 40 interval transmission length.This method for solving is examination The property tested and error, because the pond water temperature at air intake is conjecture and adjusts with being iterated, until itself and air The calculating water temperature in exit is identical.
Solution is along pipeline from CO2Exporting to import " backward " is carried out, with the saturated liquid at 30 DEG C at air intake Cold-producing medium starts, and proceeds, and as be heated, is terminated with superheated steam under the discharge temperature for calculating.The program permits Perhaps biphase condensation and single-phase steam desuperheating.
Checking model
Do not have to verify five equation analytic solutions of numerical solution.However, it was noted that two discoveries:When leaving away and enter When the water temperature that enters is equal;(a)CO2Enthalpy changes equal to humid air enthalpy change, and (b) thermic load that ammonia condensing is calculated at 30 DEG C makes With the Merkel model (Merkel, 1926) for simplifying, the load for being calculated based on constant condensation temperature 9% within.
Model prediction
Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 show CO2With coolant-temperature gage curve chart.CO2The shape of temperature curve (Fig. 5) is beat all It is more flat than expection.In about more than 37% exchanger surfaces, CO2Vapor (steam) temperature is only reduced to 30 in space-number 29 from 32 ℃.This is the result (Fig. 6) of the very high thermal capacity just above 30 DEG C (Fig. 6).
The exchanger surfaces of the model prediction 67% will need dominant cooling.The CO of critical point is close to when 30 DEG C2Enthalpy data The heat extraction of display 68% is dominant cooling, unlike ammonia only has 10%.
Compared with the curve relatively small with sensible heat cooling, water temperature curve is offset to the left, reflects the CO in Near The Critical Point2 The larger proportion of dominant cooling.
Moisture evaporation
Fig. 7 shows the current downward along tube bank.Another is not it was unexpectedly determined that water is evaporated to the sky of tube bundle top In gas.Here, although rising, water temperature is low, and water is to contact higher than the humidity ratio in air-water interface humidity ratio , therefore there are some condensations in air, current increase.
The impact of performance change
Fig. 8 illustrates thermal capacity, density, viscosity and thermal conductivity variation with temperature on each solution interval Number and the impact of the pressure loss.Where 0th interval is the entrance of hot discharge gas.With CO2Temperature is close to 32 DEG C, total heat transfer Coefficient has sizable rising, when gas phase transition for biphase when, per meter of the pressure loss is accordingly reduced.
In a model, 0.845 is used for the lewis number in equation (3).When lewis number is 1.00, identical thermic load Required surface area only reduces by 1.4%.
Comment
The situation of simulation is extreme, CO at 30 DEG C2Condensation closely its critical point.It is noted that relatively low Condensation temperature under, the ratio of sensible heat cooling will reduce, and performance variation with temperature will substantially reduce.Referring to Fig. 9.
It is further noted that the CO that the heat exhaust ratio of Merkel simplified model prediction is condensed at 30 DEG C2Differential pattern is low About 22%, it is contemplated that the notable ratio of sensible heat cooling, this is not unexpected.
CO 2 The subcritical energy characteristics of compressor
Impact of the condensation temperature to cycle performance
In Fig. 10, five commercially available, semiclosed Trans-critical cycle CO are generated2The COP curve of compressor, which has The swept volume of 27.2m3/h under 50Hz and 30kW four-pole motor.
With reference to curve 1, the COP in Figure 10 under+10 DEG C of saturated suction temperature (SST), from+30 DEG C of saturation condensation temperatures (SCT) under 6.27 to+16 DEG C of saturation condensation temperatures 18.0 under.+ 10 DEG C of SST will allow+11 DEG C of evaporating temperature (ET), The suction pressure drop having corresponding to the suppression of 1K boiling point.11 DEG C is considered as to cool down the rationally effective of air-conditioning (AC) air for direct Evaporating temperature, it is allowed to relatively large diffusion in the air themperature on cooling coil, so as to suppress need circulation air Volume, and thus reduce fan energy and resulting parasitism thermic load.This causes to be input to compressor in turn In required energy reduce, so as to improve the total energy efficiency of whole system.
Curve 2 shows under+5 DEG C of SST, and under 30 DEG C to 16 DEG C SCT, COP is from 4.45 to 11.67.This will allow empty The chilled water of tune is used for transforming existing structure and is applied to new building.
In above-mentioned two situations, compressor of air conditioner is also used as the compression in parallel of the cooling load under -5 DEG C of SST Machine, for example, keep stored frozen temperature about at 0 DEG C, and the two benches CO for being applied to cold preservation and bleed type freezing2System High-stage load.
In this case, high pressure compressor is by with+5 DEG C and+10 DEG C of virtual CO2Gas cooler exit temperature is transported OK, this causes COP curve 3 and 4 respectively.The virtual gas cooler outlet of the SCT in the range of from+30 to+16 DEG C and+5 DEG C At a temperature of, COP curve 3 is changing under -5 DEG C of SST from the range of 4.7 to 7.88.COP curve 4 is shown at+10 DEG C The outlet of virtual gas cooler, under -5 DEG C of SST, and the SCT in the range of from+30 to+16 DEG C, COP scope from 4.45 to 7.04.It is noted that this can pass through to improve compressor suction pressure in suction heat exchanger (SHEX), so that performance is more It is close to curve 3.
Impact of the ambient wet bulb temperature to condenser performance
Fig. 4 shows CO2, air and water general details.Impact of the ambient wet bulb temperature to condenser performance is shown in down In result listed by table:
NB. refrigeration tube bank:84 loops, 8 paths, 146.2m2
Ammonia, R22, R507A, the relative energy efficiency of propane and R134a
These cold-producing mediums COP under identical operating conditions shows in fig. 11.As a result, it was confirmed that ammonia is wherein best system Cryogen.The unexpectedly low COP of R134a.Under 16 and 35 DEG C of SCT, the COP of R134a is respectively than low 42 He of ammonia 31%.Additionally, the COP of the R134a compressor under+16 DEG C of SCT is 3.84, under identical suction condition and under+35 DEG C of SCT Ammonia compressor COP roughly the same.Which demonstrate R134a and there is high global warming potential directly or indirectly (Global Warming Potential, GWP).Under 25 to 35 DEG C of SCT, the performance lower than R22 efficiency 11 of R507A to 16%.HFC R507A does not have ozone depletion potential as HCFC R22, but the 100 of R507A years GWP are 3,895, are R22 100 years GWP value 1810 twice.
Overall heat-transfer coefficient, Uo
Fig. 8, Uo are referred again to apparently higher than the common Uo in the case of ammonia condensing, wherein in the apparent sky of 2.6 to 3.05m/s Under gas speed, Uo scope is about 450 to 550w/m2.K.The apparent air velocity of 3m/s is selected in a model as maximum, with Guarantee that dehydrater can capture the most of free water being suspended in ascending air.
CO in Fig. 42Evaporative condenser average Uo value in fig. 8 is for about 1050w/m2.K.This is considered as to enter condensation Under the almost identical apparent air velocity of tube bank, more than the twice of the meansigma methodss of ammonia.It is readily apparent that at considering 30 DEG C The heat to be removed of condensation 68% is significantly overheated, and only 32% is actually the condensation latent heat at 30 DEG C shown in Fig. 9.High Total heat transfer factor owing to the high CO in 76 55 meters long of equivalent length loop2Mass flux is 338.7kg/m2.s, this makes The calculating pressure drop of 15kPa is become.This is acceptable maximum, to promote the CO being operated in parallel2Condenser, without too big Down-comer, to avoid when a condenser does not work, liquid holdup in the condenser of operation.
As vaporizer, CO2High Δ P/ Δ T ratio allow condenser circuit in high-quality flux, to provide height Heat transfer rate, it is allowed to less longer loop, this also cause restrain manufacture more economical.
It is to be noted that the ammonia mass flux in evaporative condenser is in about 25 to 40kg/m2In the range of, and often Less than 25.The pressure drop is the problem of ammonia condenser, because the excessive pressure drops in ammonia evaporative condenser improve discharge pressure, so as to Saturation condensation temperature (SCT) is improve, causes energy consumption to increase.
Minimum air flow affects
Fig. 4 is referred again to, the air dry-bulb temperature of leaving away of calculating is 29.3 DEG C under 100%RH, therefore leaves wet bulb temperature Degree is also 29.3 DEG C.This only 0.7 ° K lower than 30 DEG C of SCT.This is possible to, because head tube temperature is 77 DEG C, and A high proportion of dominant overheated ensure that high 47.7 ° K leaves away approach.Should be noted, in ammonia evaporative condenser this be not Possible, wherein under design condition, ammonia evaporative condenser leave away temperature very positioned at ammonia SCT and the minimum that leaves away between wet bulb Less less than 3K and not less than 2.5K.Little airflow also results in minimum fan energy.
Conclusion
Meeting full-scale prototype CO2On the premise of the performance test of evaporative condenser, it was therefore concluded that, wet in design maximum Ball (WB) temperature is that used in 24 to 25 DEG C of relatively high latitude subtropical zones, evaporative condenser shows huge prospect.In environment WB Lower more gentle of temperature and feel nice and cool to the area of cold climate, CO2Evaporative condenser shows huger prospect.
According to above-mentioned conclusion, almost all of European Region (including mediterranean country), except with Gulf of Mexico and big Southern US continent and many Midwest states such as Minnesota State as far as the north that the West connects, are suitable for evaporative condenser Device is applied to subcritical CO2Compression exhaust.
Experiment is it is also shown that ambient wet bulb temperature is 28 to 29 DEG C of boil-off gas cooling and surrounding air WB to CO2Go out It is feasible that mouth temperature is close to 3K.This attribution on the fact that, under Trans-critical cycle pattern, without condensation phase (Fig. 9) Only have dominant heat transfer under larger LMTD, and of a relatively high Trans-critical cycle fluid density is accompanied by high heat capacity, similar to Fig. 6.
Evaporation cooling is to subcritical CO2Condensation and Trans-critical cycle CO2Gas-cooled application causes the efficient system under high COP Cold, which operates realized COP suitable and higher under many circumstances with conventional refrigerant under less than critical temperature.This is Whole world application CO2Refrigeration opens road.Respectively with chilled water, DX or pumping CO2In the application of air-conditioning, by CO2For+5 and Especially true in the application of+10 DEG C of compressor saturation inlet temperature.
It is further noted that compressor of air conditioner is also used as any residue cooling load in the facilities such as supermarket Parallel connection compressor, wherein as shown in Figure 10, height need to very high COP under cool down and freezing load.
In fact, when Figure 10 and 11 is compared, it is clear that in subcritical condensation phase, CO2Performance better than routinizing length of schooling Cryogen, such as R22, R507A and R134a, are also found just like Pearson (2010).Additionally, in most of operating conditions Under, particularly in the case of parallel compression is related to, CO2Can compete with ammonia and propane or win.
At a temperature of high wet bulb, such as 28 DEG C, conventional evaporative condenser is possible to operate under 40 DEG C of SCT, as Fig. 9 institute Show, for NH3, R22, R507A, propane and R134a generate respectively 3.37,3.34,2.71,2.96 and 2.38 COP value.Cause This, in order to develop efficient CO2Cold-producing medium, needs bigger compressor, for example, the modified version of CNG dyestuff compressor.
