Abstract:

The miscibility of refrigerant and lubricating oil directly affects the service life and cycle performance of refrigeration system. To solve the problem of matching new refrigerant and lubricating oil, a refrigerant and lubricating oil compatibility test system was established. The experimental study on the miscibility of R290/R1234yf and mineral oil was carried out in the temperature range of 223.15—303.15 K. The results show when R290 mass fraction in mixed refrigerant R290/R1234yf changed from 25% to 35% and oil proportion was specified at 10%±0.5%, the critical miscibility temperature of R290/R1234yf and mineral oil decreased with increasing R290. In the test range of oil proportion, based on the common refrigeration conditions, when the mass fraction of R290 in solution changed between 20% and 30%, the critical miscibility temperature was sensitive to the change of components. When the R290 mass fraction in solution was over 30%, the refrigerant/oil solution was believed to be clear and transparent. When the R290 mass fraction in solution was below 20%, the obvious stratification or large flocs would appear. By means of the element contribution evaluation method, the theoretical critical miscibility temperature prediction equation was provided and given in the form of ternary diagram, which has practical guiding significance for the development of new environmental protection refrigerants.

摘要:

制冷剂与冷冻机油的互溶性直接影响制冷系统的使用寿命和循环性能。为了解决新型制冷剂与冷冻机油的匹配问题,搭建了一套制冷剂与冷冻机油互溶性测试系统,在温度范围223.15~303.15 K内,开展了R290/R1234yf和矿物油的互溶性实验研究。结果表明:在含油率为10%±0.5%的情况下,当R290占混合制冷剂的质量分数在25%~35%变动时,R290/R1234yf和矿物油的临界互溶温度随着R290含量的增加而下降。在测试含油率范围内,基于常见的制冷工况,当R290在溶液中的质量分数高于30%时,溶液将呈现均一透明的状态;R290在溶液中的质量分数低于20%时,溶液将出现絮状物或分层现象。通过元素贡献评价方法,提供了理论临界互溶温度预测方程,并将结果以三元图的方式呈现,对新型环保制冷剂的发展具有现实指导意义。
