Definitions
- the invention relates to a refrigerant mixture, in particular a refrigerant for air conditioning systems in motor vehicles and commercial vehicles, preferably in car air conditioning systems.
- halogenated hydrocarbons especially chlorofluorocarbons
- GWP global warming potential
- partially fluorinated hydrocarbons A large number of substances that have no ozone depletion potential are now available in the field of refrigeration technology.
- DE 41 16 274 discloses a refrigerant mixture which contains CO2 and partially fluorinated hydrocarbons such as R 134a (CF3-CH2F) or R 152a (CHF2-CH3). These mixtures are to be used in particular as replacements for the refrigerants R 22 (CHCIF2) and R 502 (an azeotropic mixture of (CHCIF2) (R 22) and C2CIF5 (R 115)).
- WO 00/39242 also describes a cold mixture as a substitute for R 22 (CHCIF2) or R 502 (mixture of CHCIF2 and C2CIF5). This mixture consists of fluoroethane (R 161) and trifluoroiodomethane (R 13 I 1).
- the object of the invention is to provide a refrigerant mixture which can be used as a substitute for R 134a.
- the refrigerant mixture should have a minimal global warming potential, be non-toxic and, if possible, non-flammable.
- the refrigerant mixture according to the invention contains or consists of halogenated hydrocarbons with a GWPioo less than 150 and CO 2
- Halogenated hydrocarbons with a GWP-J QO less than 150 are especially suitable as 1.1.-difluoroethane (R 152a), fluoroethane (R 161) and trifluoroiodomethane, which in combination with CO2 as a substitute for the refrigerant 1.1.1.2-tetrafluoroethane (R 134a) can be used.
- Fluoroethane and difluoroethane are flammable as individual substances, but have a GWP-joo below 150 and are very volatile in the atmosphere. How to find a GWP-
- Trifluoroiodomethane is not flammable, but it is also very unstable in the atmosphere. It was found that the disadvantageous properties of the individual substances can be compensated for by combining the individual substances with CO2 and the refrigerant mixture according to the invention can be used in particular for automotive air conditioning systems. These refrigerant mixtures are much cheaper than 1.1.1.2-tetrafluoromethane in terms of their direct greenhouse potential and can therefore be used as a substitute.
- the composition of the refrigerant mixture can be varied depending on the pressure in the refrigerant system.
- composition of the refrigerant mixture is selected so that the risk of flammability is reduced or severely restricted.
- a mixture of 98-70 wt% R 152a and 2-30 wt% CO2 is used to replace R 134a.
- R 152a behaves similar to R 134a in its thermophysical properties. However, due to the flammability of R 152a, it can be used in directly evaporating systems, e.g. in automobiles.
- the explosion range of R 152a is between 4.5% by volume lower explosion limit and 21.8% by volume upper explosion limit. In the case of mixtures with a CO2 content of 30% by weight, the lower explosion limit increases to 13% by volume. (see Fig. 1). Increasing the lower explosion limit reduces the risk that flammable refrigerants generally have.
- CO2 has very different thermophysical properties than R 134a and R 152a. CO2 is not flammable. CO2 has a significantly higher pressure level than R 134a or R 152a.
- the critical temperature of 31 ° C means that CO2 for the air conditioning of vehicles cannot be used in the classic subcritical compression refrigeration process, but has to go through a transcritical process.
- the transcritical process leads to significantly higher process pressures (> 100 bar) and a significant deterioration in the theoretically achievable maximum efficiency.
- the mixture was found to have a high volumetric refrigeration capacity. This high cooling capacity leads to a reduction in the required stroke volume of the compressor and thus to a reduction in the compressor size (see example 1).
- Mixtures of R 152a and CO2 with a CO2 content> 2% by weight have a higher pressure level than R 134a. Higher pressure levels improve heat transfer and reduce friction pressure losses. Both effects have a positive effect on the energy efficiency of the overall system. Mixtures of R 152a and CO2 have a large temperature glide. This has a positive effect if cooling and heating are required at sliding temperatures. The sliding heat transfer is present in all heat transfers in which there is no phase change on the secondary side and thus also in the air cooling or air heating.
