Jan 1, 2021 · Simulation results also revealed that HFC-161 has lower discharge temperature in the range of 70 °C to 82 °C than HCFC-22 for different cases considered. Thus, HFC-161 proved to be energy efficient and climate friendly alternative refrigerant for room air conditioners.

This paper discusses the suitability of HFC-161 over other refrigerants. Apart from having zero ODP and GWP value of 12, HFC-161 refrigerant can prove a promising alternative to HCFC-22 and various other HCFC refrigerants facing the fate of phase out.

Density data of the refrigerant ethyl fluoride (HFC-161) have been measured in the range of temperatures from (230 to 344) K. Liquid density experimental data of HFC-161 are correlated by the VDNS-type and the modified Rackett-type density equations, and the parameters of the density equations are given.

Apr 5, 2008 · HFC-161 is an environmentally friendly refrigerant which is not destructive to the ozone layer and has a very low global warming potential. It has a high cooling capacity and an excellent energy efficiency, offering tangible economic and social benefits.

et al. presented R-161 as a better alternative refrigerant to HFC-410a, over HFC-32. The theoretical, as well as experimental analysis on a vapor compression cycle with rotary compressor sh. wed that the COP of R-161 was found higher by >15% than that of HF.

Jan 1, 2012 · In this paper, the refrigerant HFC-161 as an alternative refrigerant to HFC-410A is presented in a small scale refrigeration system. Theoretical cycle performances of HFC-410A, HFC-32 and HFC-161 are calculated and analyzed under the rated working condition.

Aug 21, 2011 · HFC-161 (Fluroethane) has zero ODP and ultra low GWP. The thermophysical properties of HFC-161 are very close to HCFC-22 except flammability. The lower flammability limit of HFC-161 is 3.8% by volume in air, which is almost double of HC-290. It is reported that it has good compatibility with mineral oil.

May 1, 2005 · Ternary mixture of HFC-161, HFC-125 and HFC-143a is firstly presented as a promising alternative refrigerant to R502 in this paper. The performances of R404A and this new mixture are compared in a vapor compressor refrigeration set …

Apart from having zero ODP and GWP value of 12, HFC-161 refrigerant can prove a promising alternative to HCFC-22 and various other HCFC refrigerants facing the fate of phase out. Various results are obtained on the basis of COP, discharge …
