Abstract

The effect of refrigerant R-134a and R-430a on the performance of refrigeration equipment for R-134a is investigated. Refrigeration effect, compression work and coefficient of performance of refrigeration equpment for both R-134a and R-430a are obtained by experimentation. These performances comparison between R-134a and R-430a is made in case of the maximum load. Refrigeration effect for R-134a and that for R-430a is almost equal while compression work for R-134a is less than that for R-430a. Consequently it shows that coefficient of performance for R-134a is relatively 11% higher than that for R-430a.
