Optimization by Thermodynamics in Time Finished of a Cold Store with Mechanical Compression of the Vapors

This study made it possible to determine by the application of thermodynamics in finished time, the points of instruction necessary to the development of a regulation system for the rationalization of the power consumption in a cold store. These points were obtained by determining the optimal variations of temperature as well to the condenser and the evaporator corresponding to the minimum capacity absorptive by the compressor for a maximum COP.

Review on Applications of Zeotropic Mixtures

Compared with the pure fluids,the zeotropic mixtures can balance the requirements of environmental protection,heat source matching and system safety,and exhibit excellent thermodynamic performance.However,compared to the widespread applications of pure fluids,zeotropic mixtures are rarely exploited in thermodynamic cycles,and there is a lack of targeted summary on refrigeration systems,organic Rankine cycle systems and combined power and refrigeration systems.In the recent years,zeotropic mixtures are developing at an unprecedented pace,while the working fluids components are inevitably explored in the process.In this paper,the research progress of zeotropic mixtures in the field of refrigeration systems,organic Rankine cycle systems and combined power and refrigeration systems are reviewed.Based on the review of zeotropic working mixtures,the reasonable predictions can be proposed.In the future,environmental problems will still be one of the most important concerned issues.Therefore,the zeotropic mixtures consisting of natural hydrocarbons and carbon dioxide,which are environmentally friendly,have great potential for development.Furthermore,zeotropic mixtures of natural working fluids can improve comprehensive energy efficiency of combined systems and will play an important role in future carbon emission reduction technologies.
