Abstract

R134a is most widely adopted alternate refrigerant in refrigeration equipment, such as domestic refrigerators and air conditioners. This refrigerant heat transfer capacity is not so good and increase power consumption. Due to these limitation nanofluids are enhanced with the normal lubricant and increases the heat transfer capacity and reduces the power consumption. The experimental studies indicate that the air conditioning system with nanorefrigerant works normally. It is found that the coefficient of performance is increased by 13 % and the power consumption reduces by 20 % when POE oil is replaced by a mixture of POE oil and Al2O3nanoparticles.
