Performance Study and Optimization on Alternative Refrigerant R290 in R22 Low Temperature Heat Pump System
This study addresses the experimental performance of the alternative refrigerant R290 in the R22 low-temperature heat pump system. Results show that when R22 was directly replaced by R290 in the original system
both the heat exchange and coefficient of performance (COP) of the system decreased
and the exhaust temperature and pressure of the R290 system were higher than those of the original R22 system at low temperatures. Through the analysis of the system components
reducing the displacement of the compressor of the R290 heat pump system can effectively improve overall performance and reduce the discharge temperature and pressure. After the optimization of the compressor
the R290 system achieved a 6.5% higher COP compared to the original R22 system
and the exhaust temperature was decreased to 80 °C
