The inclusion of an expander with work recovery provides two advantages for transcritical CO2 refrigeration cycles: the COP is improved and the exhaust pressure of the main compressor is lowered. Several designs of expanders have been proposed for this application and some prototypes have been tested already. In our laboratory a three-stage expander has been developed, which replaces the throttle valve of the normal refrigeration cycle and expands into the two-phase region. For optimum integration into the overall system it is proposed to install a vapour-liquid separator between the second and third stage of expansion. The vapour is guided back to the third expander stage whereas the liquid is supplied to the cooling stations via thermostatic or electronic expansion valves. 相似文献

Capillary tubes have been used in refrigeration systems for many years, but not with a transcritical CO2 system. In this article, the effects of capillary tubes in a transcritical CO2 refrigeration system have been investigated experimentally and theoretically. Different types of capillary tubes with different lengths (0.5–4 m) and diameters (1–2 mm) have been tested. The result of this work is a static model, which is used in the further work to make a simulation model (static) of a complete refrigeration system. The model is based on Friedel's and Colebrook's pressure drop correlations.
The behaviour of an adiabatic capillary tube in a refrigeration cycle has been investigated theoretically. The conclusion is that the COP of a system with capillary tubes generally is better than when a fixed high pressure is used, but not as good as when variable optimal high pressure is used. Capillary tubes are especially interesting in applications where the evaporation pressure is constant and the temperature out of the gas cooler varies no more than ±10 K from the design condition. The reduction in COP is more significant at low temperatures out of the gas cooler. 相似文献 3.
The performance of CO2 refrigeration systems strongly depends on the operating conditions. The specific characteristics of low critical temperature and high operating pressure limit its applications and imply the implementation of different control strategies. This study compares the performance of different CO2 system solutions for supermarket refrigeration with R404A system. Some possible modifications and improvements on the CO2 system have been investigated. The COP of the investigated CO2 system solution can be improved by about 3–7% along the ambient temperature range of 10–40 °C. The annual energy consumption calculations in three different climates; cold, moderate and hot, show that the centralized trans-critical CO2 system is good solution for cold climates whereas the NH3–CO2 cascade system has the lowest energy consumption in hot climates. Both systems proved to be good alternatives to R404A DX system for supermarket refrigeration. 相似文献

Using CO2 trans-critical system solutions in supermarket refrigeration is gaining interest with several installations already running in different European countries. Using a computer simulation model, this study investigates the performance of two main system solutions: centralized with accumulation tank at the medium temperature level and parallel with two separate circuits for low and medium temperature levels. Both system solutions are presented and the simulation model is described in details. Calculations have been performed to design the systems and optimize their performances where basic layout and size of each solution have been defined. For ambient temperature range of 10–40 °C, the reference centralized system solution shows higher COP of about 4–21% than the reference parallel solution. Using two-stage compression in the centralized system solution instead of single stage will result in total COP which is about 5–22% higher than that of the reference centralized system and 13–17% higher than that of the improved two-stage parallel system. The two-stage centralized system solution gives the highest COP for the selected ambient temperature range. 相似文献

The system performance of a CO2 refrigeration system is greatly affected by the compressor discharge pressure. An internal heat exchanger (IHX) with high effectiveness is an important factor to achieve high system performance. The expression traditionally used to describe the heat exchange effectiveness is not suitable for CO2 systems. As a result a practical effectiveness expression for IHX, based on enthalpy difference, has been derived and is reported in this paper. Detailed analysis on the relationship between the optimum high pressure Pk,opt and other systematic parameters was performed. Evaporating temperature has little influence on Pk,opt; and IHX can minimize the sensitivity of the system to the refrigerant quality x at the evaporator outlet. Based on simulation data, a correlation of Pk,opt was developed that predicts the simulation values with a deviation of less than 3.6% in the whole range and 0.94% when the evaporating temperature t1=5.3 °C. The results reported in this paper can be used in optimum control and performance evaluation of the whole system. 相似文献

This paper is an answer to the need of finding the optimal solution for the throttling system in refrigerating machines using CO2 as working fluid; such a solution must combine reliability, low installation cost and high energy efficiency. To this purpose, different expansion systems are compared by means of a simulation programme, including a new one, operating with a differential valve, a liquid receiver and a thermostatic valve. The typical compression refrigerating cycle performed by CO2 involves transcritical operations and therefore the upper pressure needs to be adjusted to the optimal value, that, unlike the traditional cycle, is not determined by heat transfer. The innovative system here proposed shows an intrinsic self-adjusting capability that leads to COP values quite close to the maximum ones when a fixed suitable value of the differential pressure is chosen, even if the temperature of the secondary fluid varies to a large extent. 相似文献

Conventional working fluids (refrigerants) are being phased out worldwide to combat with the twin menace of ozone layer depletion and global warming and natural refrigerants are fast gaining favour lately. Single stage and multi stage refrigeration systems fail to widen the gap between heat source and heat sink temperatures required in many industrial applications requiring simultaneous heating and cooling and cascaded systems appear to be the best alternative. Modest research has been done in cascaded systems based on natural refrigerants thereby offering good potential for research. In this paper, a cascaded system for simultaneous heating and cooling (refrigeration and heat pump system) with a carbon dioxide based HT cycle and propane based LT cycle for simultaneous refrigeration and heating applications has been analyzed. To facilitate prediction of optimum performance parameters, performance trends with variation in the design parameters and operating variables have been presented in this article. Relevant expressions have been developed to serve as guidelines to the user for selecting appropriate design parameters like intermediate temperature so that the system yields optimum performance. Independently developed property codes have been employed for both carbon dioxide and propane for higher accuracy. 相似文献

This paper describes a detailed procedure into the investigation of optimised control strategies for CO2 cycles in medium temperature retail food refrigeration systems. To achieve this objective, an integrated model was developed composing of a detailed condenser/gas cooler model, a simplified compressor model, an isenthalpic expansion process and constant evaporating temperature and superheating. The CO2 system can operate subcritically or transcritically depending on the ambient temperature. For a transcritical operation, a prediction can be made for optimised refrigerant discharge pressures from thermodynamic cycle calculations. When the system operates in the subcritical cycle, a floating discharge pressure control strategy is employed and the effect of different transitional ambient temperatures separating subcritical and transcritical cycles on system performance is investigated. The control strategy assumes variable compressor speed and adjustable air flow for the gas cooler/condenser to be modulated to achieve the constant cooling load requirement at different ambient conditions. 相似文献

A novel system for space heating has been developed taking advantage of the favourable characteristics of the transcritical CO2 cycle, where heat is rejected by cooling of supercritical gas at gliding temperature. By a proper design of a counter flow heat exchanger it is possible to heat air to high temperatures and thereby giving the driving force for circulation of air through the heat exchanger, in consequence without using a fan. A concept without a fan, here called a fan-less concept, would give several advantages; no noise, no power consumption for the fan and increased comfort with reduced air draft in the room. The concept may also be used for heat rejection in systems for light commercial applications or other applications where fan assisted heat rejection concepts are used today.
An experimental study of a CO2 to air heat exchanger has been performed. The heat exchanger was made of a vertically finned aluminium profile. Tubes for CO2 were mounted in the base of the profile. CO2 at supercritical pressure flowing downwards through the profile was heating air flowing in the channels formed by the fins of the profile. In this way a perfect counter flow heat exchange was obtained. The prototype heat exchanger was 2000 mm high and 190 mm wide, with 45 mm deep fins. A simulation model was developed and verified to give good accordance with the experimental data. The model was then used to study how different design parameters influence the efficiency of the heat exchanger. By altering the number of fins and the fin thickness of the tested profile, the heat output at a given condition could be increased to almost double, meaning that the initial design was relatively far from optimal. With the original heat exchanger profile design concept a heat exchanger with height, width and depth of, respectively 2000, 750 and 200 mm, would be required in order to achieve a heat output of 2500 W if the constraints for assumed acceptable efficiency was applied. If a heat exchanger with less height is preferred, the width will have to be increased in order to maintain about the same front area, width times height. Ideas have also been introduced for how to improve both the compactness and efficiency of the heat exchanger by introducing a compact counter flow heat exchanger in the lower part of the air flow channel. It is concluded that the new concept looks promising for use as the indoor heat exchanger in an air-to-air heat pump or as a gascooler for heat rejection in small commercial equipment, when using CO2 as refrigerant. 相似文献 10.
A previously developed one-dimensional model, based on a forward marching solution technique of the conservation equations has been used to study ejector operation and performance in a large range of refrigeration working conditions. Several important features of ejector operation characteristics were simulated. Global parameter values, their local distributions along the ejector including the temperature, the pressure and the Mach number were calculated for design and off design conditions. Operation parameters such as the entrainment ratio ω, compression ratios Pexit/Pev, Pg/Pexit and the geometric ratio (D/Dc)2 were found to significantly affect performance. The impact of the generator, the evaporator, the condenser and related thermodynamic parameters, which have been assessed in this study, are summarized as:

A typical transcritical CO2 system shows lower performance than conventional air conditioners in cooling mode operation. In addition, the CO2 system shows a large variation of the performance according to refrigerant charge whereas the conventional systems do not show large variation. In this study, the performance of the CO2 heat pump was measured and analyzed by varying the refrigerant charge amount at standard cooling condition. In addition, the performance sensitivity of the CO2 system as a function of refrigerant charge was compared to those for the R22, R410A, and R407C systems. The cooling COP of the CO2 system was reduced more significantly at undercharged conditions than at overcharged conditions as the deviation from the optimal charge increased. The expansion loss was the dominant factor affecting system performance at undercharged conditions, while the gascooler loss became the major parameter at overcharged conditions. Among the systems investigated and compared in this study, the CO2 system showed the most reduction in performance at undercharged conditions. 相似文献

The aim of this paper is to investigate, both experimentally and theoretically, the potential of improving the cycle efficiency through two stage compression with intermediate cooling, at operating conditions typical of air conditioning. The experimental set-up consists of two closed loop air circuits acting as heat sink and heat source for gas-cooler and evaporator, respectively. The tested refrigerating circuit includes two tube-and-fin heat exchangers as gas-cooler and evaporator, a back-pressure valve as throttling device and a double-stage semi-hermetic compound, two-piston, reciprocating compressor equipped with oil separator and intercooler. A full set of thermocouples, pressure transducers and flow-meters allows measurement of all the main parameters of the CO2 cycle, enabling to perform heat balance both air and refrigerant side. Tests were run at fixed evaporation pressure, evaporator outlet superheating and gas-cooler outlet temperature, varying the gas-cooler outlet pressure in the range 8–11 MPa. The optimal gas-cooler pressure for this application as well as the effect of the intercooler efficiency on the cycle performance were investigated.
A FORTRAN code for the simulation of an improved two-stage cycle was validated against the experimental results; a theoretical analysis performed with this code is proposed for optimisation and energy performance evaluation of such a cycle. 相似文献 13.

In this study, a CO2 automotive air conditioner prototype was designed and constructed. The compressor was of swash plate design; the gas cooler and evaporator were made of fin-tubes; a manual expansion valve and an internal heat exchanger accumulator were used. The lubricant, the CO2 charge, the evaporator outlet pressure, the compressor speed, the air inlet temperature and flow rate of the gas cooler and the air flow rate of the evaporator were varied and the performance of the prototype was experimentally investigated in detail. The cooling capacity, compressor power consumption, CO2 mass flow rate, and COP value were analyzed. The experimental results showed that the CO2 system performance was greatly affected by different lubricants; the CO2 system performance was sensitive to the mass charge; the high side pressure affected the system performance greatly and a high side pressure controller was needed. 相似文献

Recent experiments demonstrate the viability of a low-pressure CO2-cofluid compression refrigeration cycle in which CO2 and a non-volatile cofluid are circulated in tandem and co-compressed in a compliant scroll compressor. This work explores the theoretical performance limitations of such a cycle operating under environmental conditions representative of automotive air conditioning and studies the dependence of this performance on the properties of the CO2-cofluid mixture. The vapor–liquid equilibrium and thermodynamic properties of the mixture are described using a previously reported activity-coefficient model. A coupled system of physically based equations that allows for consideration of both ideal and real hardware components is used to represent the system hardware and its interaction with the environment. The system efficiency is analyzed in terms of entropy generation rates in the various hardware components; entropy generation in the internal heat exchanger—a component required to achieve sufficiently low cooling temperatures—strongly influences overall system efficiency. The vapor pressure of the CO2-cofluid mixture and the heat of solution of CO2 in cofluid have large and somewhat independent contributions to the system performance: lower saturation pressure lowers the optimal operating pressures at fixed CO2 loading, while increasingly negative heat of solution contributes to higher specific refrigeration capacity and efficiency.

Optimisation is a design method to search the best value of the defined system's goal that can be expressed by an objective function to be minimised or maximised. A set of unknowns subject to constraints controls the values that the objective function can assume. A multi-variable approach enables one to address the optimisation of a thermodynamic system: the best working conditions of the system are different from those corresponding to component optimisation. Then we have to model the complete system to find an optimumty.
Different objective functions are presented as optimisation criteria of the design data of a steam ejector cycle, keeping the same boundary conditions and convergence limits and using a numerical optimisation of the cycle published by the authors. The comparison between the results obtained with different objective functions is presented to show the influence of the function chosen on the system design. The comparison also shows that the choice of the objective function decisively influences the robustness of the numerical code results and the convergence performances of the code. 相似文献 16.

A theoretical and experimental study has been carried out for a residential brine-to-water CO2 heat pump system for combined space heating and hot water heating. A 6.5 kW prototype heat pump unit was constructed and extensively tested in order to document the performance and to study component and system behaviour over a wide range of operating conditions. The CO2 heat pump was equipped with a unique counter-flow tripartite gas cooler for preheating of domestic hot water (DHW), low-temperature space heating and reheating of DHW.
The CO2 heat pump was tested in three different modes: space heating only, DHW heating only and simultaneous space heating and DHW heating. The heat pump unit gave off heat to a floor heating system at supply/return temperatures of 33/28, 35/30 or 40/35 °C, and the set-point temperature for the DHW was 60, 70 or 80 °C. Most tests were carried out at an evaporation temperature of −5 °C, and the average city water temperature was 6.5 °C. The experimental results proved that a brine-to-water CO2 heat pump system may achieve the same or higher seasonal performance factor (SPF) than the most energy efficient state-of-the-art brine-to-water heat pump systems as long as: (1) the heating demand for hot water production constitutes at least 25% of the total annual heating demand of the residence, (2) the return temperature in the space heating system is about 30 °C or lower, (3) the city water temperature is about 10 °C or lower and (4) the exergy losses in the DHW tank are small. 相似文献 17.
Theoretical and experimental research on the working process of screw refrigeration compressor under superfeed condition 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
In order to increase the refrigeration capacity and improve the coefficient of performance (COP), an economizer arrangement is used in the refrigeration system with screw refrigeration compressor. In this system, the mid-pressure refrigerant gas from the economizer is injected in the screw refrigeration compressor. So it affects the performance of the compressor. In this paper, the working process of a twin screw refrigeration compressor with economizer under different superfeed pressures is studied. A mathematical model for simulating the working process of screw refrigeration compressor under superfeed condition with the economizer is presented; especially the flow coefficient of superfeed is obtained by the experimental research. To verify the model, the p–V diagrams (pressure–volume diagrams) of screw refrigeration compressor under different superfeed pressures with the economizer are recorded successfully by making use of a micro-type pressure sensor that embedded into the groove at the root of the female rotor on the discharge side. The p–V diagrams of theoretical calculation are in good agreement with the results of experimental recorded, which lead to conclusion that the model can be used as a powerful tool for performance prediction of screw refrigeration compressor, also, it is very helpful for refrigeration system design. 相似文献

This study presents experimental results obtained from a transcritical R744 system using a refrigerant ejector. The results were compared to that of a conventional system with an expansion valve. For the test conditions considered, the cooling capacity and COP simultaneously improved by up to 8% and 7%, respectively. Experiments were analyzed to quantitatively assess the effects on system performance as a result of changes in basic ejector dimensions such as motive nozzle and diffuser sizing. Small angles of 5° yielded best results for the static pressure recovery of the high-speed two-phase flow entering the diffuser. Experiments confirmed that like in a conventional transcritical R744 system with expansion valve, the high-side pressure control integrated into the ejector could be used to maximize the system performance. Numerical simulation results helped identifying this basic trend. Due to difficulties in the ejector throat pressure measurements, a more practical performance metric was introduced in order to quantify overall ejector efficiencies. According to this definition, the prototype ejector was able to recover up to 14.5% of the throttling losses. 相似文献

This paper describes the experiment carried out to analyze the performance of a refrigeration system in cascade with ammonia and carbon dioxide as working fluids. The effect of operation parameters, such as the evaporating temperature of the low temperature cycle, the condensing temperature of low temperature cycle, temperature difference in cascade heat exchanger and superheat degree, on the system performance was investigated. Performance of the cascade system with NH3/CO2 was compared with that of two-stage NH3 system and single-stage NH3 system with or without economizer. It was found that the COP of the cascade system is the best among all the systems, when the evaporating temperature is below −40 °C. Also, the cascade system performance is greatly affected by evaporating temperature, condensing temperature of low temperature cycle, temperature difference in cascade heat exchanger and is only slightly sensitive to superheat degree. All the experimental results indicate that the NH3/CO2 cascade system is very competitive in low temperature applications. 相似文献

After the CFCs and the HCFCs were deemed unfit as working fluids in refrigeration, air conditioning, and heat pump applications, there has been a renaissance for carbon dioxide technology. Heat pumps is one of the application areas where theoretical and experimental investigations are now performed by an increasing number of research institutions and manufacturers. This paper gives an overview of some of the current activities in the CO2 heat pump field. Discussed are the important characteristics of the transcritical CO2 process applied to heat pumps, and also discussed are theoretical and experimental results from several heat pump applications. Provided that calculations and system designs are performed on the premises of the working fluid, and that test plants are constructed and operated to fully exploit the specific characteristics of both the fluid and the transcritical process, the results show that CO2 is an attractive alternative to the synthetic fluids. Competitive products may be launched in the near future. 相似文献
