- CO 2 carbon dioxide
- HFC-134a Currently proposed replacement refrigerants for HFC-134a include HFC-152a, pure hydrocarbons such as butane or propane, or "natural" refrigerants such as CO2. Many of these suggested replacements are toxic, flammable, and/or have low energy efficiency. New replacements are also being proposed for HCFC-22, R404A, R407C and R410A, among others. As these replacements are found, new uses of such alternative refrigerants are being sought in order to take advantage of their low or zero ozone depletion potential and lower global warming potential.

- FIG.1 is a schematic diagram of a cascade refrigeration system according to one embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of another embodiment of the cascade refrigeration system of the present invention.
- FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of a further embodiment of the present invention which shows a cascade refrigeration system with a secondary heat transfer loop which transfers heat from a lower temperature loop to a higher temperature loop.

- Refrigeration capacity is a term to define the change in enthalpy of a refrigerant in an evaporator per unit mass of refrigerant circulated, or the heat removed by the refrigerant in the evaporator per unit volume of refrigerant vapor exiting the evaporator (volumetric capacity).
- the refrigeration capacity is a measure of the ability of a refrigerant or heat transfer composition to produce cooling.
- Cooling rate refers to the heat removed by the refrigerant in the evaporator per unit time.
- Coefficient of performance is the amount of heat removed from a body to be cooled divided by the required energy input to operate the cycle over a given time interval. The higher the COP, the higher is the energy efficiency. COP is directly related to the energy efficiency ratio (EER) that is the efficiency rating for refrigeration or air conditioning equipment at a specific set of internal and external temperatures.
- EER energy efficiency ratio
- Global warming potential is an index for estimating relative global warming contribution due to atmospheric emission of a kilogram of a particular greenhouse gas compared to emission of a kilogram of carbon dioxide. GWP can be calculated for different time horizons showing the effect of atmospheric lifetime for a given gas. The GWP for the 100 year time horizon is commonly the value referenced. For mixtures, a mass- fraction weighted average can be calculated based on the individual GWPs for each component.
- Ozone depletion potential is a number that refers to the amount of stratospheric ozone depletion caused by a substance. The ODP is the ratio of the impact on stratospheric ozone of a chemical compared to the impact of a similar mass of CFC-1 1
- CFC-1 1 fluorotrichloromethane
- HCFCs fluorotrichloromethane
- HFCs have zero ODP because they do not contain chlorine.

- compositions with 60.00 weight percent or less HFO-1234yf in HFC-134a would be considered nonflammable.
- compositions containing 53.10 weight percent or less HFO-1234yf in HFC-134a would be considered non-flammable.
- Table 7 shows the performance of certain compositions as compared to CO 2 , R404A (ASHRAE designation for a mixture containing HFC-125, HFC-134a, and HFC-143a), R410A (ASHRAE designation for a mixture containing HFC-32 and HFC-125) and HFC-32.
- Evap Pres is evaporator pressure
- Cond Pres is condenser pressure
- Comp Disch T is compressor discharge temperature
- COP coefficient of performance (analogous to energy efficiency)
- CAP capacity
- Avg. Temp glide is the average of the temperature glide in the evaporator and condenser
- GWP global warming potential. The data are based on the following conditions.
- Compressor efficiency is 70%
- the GWP value for HFCs are taken from the "Climate Change 2007 - IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) Fourth Assessment Report on Climate Change", from the section entitled “Working Group 1 Report: "The Physical Science Basis", Chapter 2, pp. 212-213, Table 2.14.
- the value for HFO-1234yf was published in Papadimitriou et al., Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 2007, vol. 9, pp. 1 -13. Specifically, the 100 year time horizon GWP values are used.
- compositions containing more than one component are calculated as weighted averages of the individual component GWP values.
- HFC-32 actually shows improved COP and capacity relative to R404A and also has significantly lower GWP.
- the composition containing 27.5 wt% HFO-1234yf and 72.5 wt% HFC-32 matches the COP and capacity of R410A, has very low temperature glide indicating azeotrope-like behavior and also has significantly lower GWP.
- compositions comprising mixtures of HFO-1234yf and HFC-32 have improved COP (energy efficiency) as compared to CO2.
- the total equivalent warming impact is determined for systems as disclosed herein in comparison to conventional uncoupled supermarket refrigeration systems as well as conventional cascade systems.
- the TEWI takes into consideration the effects of the energy efficiency of the system, the contribution due to the energy source used to provide the electrical power to the equipment, and the amount of refrigerant charged to the system as well as the rate of leakage to quantify a more complete environmental impact of use of different refrigerants.
- This Example uses a conventional European direct expansion (DX) supermarket refrigeration system, traditionally using R404A in both medium temperature (MT) and low temperature (LT) refrigeration systems, as the base case for comparison. Certain assumptions were made based on a typical European supermarket system are shown in Table 8.
- DX European direct expansion
- Table 9 provides the conditions for which the system performance (COP, or coefficient of performance, a measure of energy efficiency) was estimated.
- COP system performance
- temp is temperature
- evap is evaporator
- cond condenser
- comp is compressor.
- Table 10 lists several different embodiments of the present invention as compared to conventional uncoupled and cascade systems for which the determinations of TEWI are made, as well as the estimated COP values as calculated based on the conditions listed above in Table 9. TABLE 10
- the TEWI value includes an indirect contribution, which incorporates energy source and usage, and a direct contribution due to the emissions of refrigerant with a given GWP from a system.
- Table 1 1 lists the indirect and direct contributions and the TEWI value calculated for the different systems described above, in terms of equivalent CO2 emissions over equipment life (in million kg) in order from greatest to least environmental impact.
- Table 1 1 demonstrate that the use of HFO-based refrigerants (e.g. in the medium temperature loop of cascade refrigeration systems 3 and 4) can lead to lower TEWI values than those for uncoupled or cascade refrigeration systems using refrigerants known to the prior art.
