What Is Refrigerant and How Does It Help Your Air Conditioner?
What Is Refrigerant
The refrigerant is a compound or mixture in liquid state which
is used in the machine for moving heat from one location which has a low
temperature to another location with higher temperature.
Properties Of Refrigerant
Low freezing point
Low condensing pressure
High evaporator pressure
High critical pressure, etc. Moreover,
Txicity
Oil solubility
Low water solubility
Reactivity, etc.
Some of the examples of refrigeration substance are r-410a,
r-404a, r-407c, etc. The refrigerant substances which are used subsequently in
the applications are ammonia, sulfur dioxide, propane.
The global refrigerant market is growing at a significant pace
owing to driving factors such as increasing demand for domestic air conditioner
due rise in per-capita income. Moreover, increase of application for air
conditioner in automobiles is likely to drive the demand for refrigerant in the
coming years. However, high regulation on fluorocarbon due to its harmful
effect on ozone layer may hinder the growth of refrigerant market. Likewise,
development and spread of awareness on energy efficient cooling sysytem may
provide a lucrative opportunity for the market players in the near future.
Types Of Refrigerents: hcfc, hfc, hfo, isobutane, propane, ammonia, carbon
dioxide, others .
Applications
Of Refrigerents: refrigeration systems, chillers,
air-conditioning systems, mac, others.
