Abstract

This experimental investigation related with the performance evaluation of a refrigeration system by using variouseco friendly refrigerant mixtures. The refrigeratingsystem used for the evaluation works on(VCC) vapor compression cycleon the principle of heat is absorbed in anevaporator by evaporation process. Now days it is very important to increase the coefficient of performance (COP)of the refrigeration system and to increase the COP lot of researches are done.The eco friendly refrigerants used in the system to enhance the performance are R134a (Tetrafluoroethane), R290 (Isobutane).This experimental study contracts with a comparative analysis of the performance of variousmixtures of refrigerantsas described below with R134a kept as a comparative parameter. The above refrigerants are mixed on the basis on weight proportions in diverseratios, and below mentionedmixtures used are:Test-1: R134aTest-2: R134a -80% and R290 -20%
