Performance Analysis of Refrigerants R1234yf Single Stage Compression Cycle with a Throttle Valve and an Expander

Article Preview

Abstract:

In range of high pressure, the performance of single stage cycle with an expander (SCE) is better than the cycle with a throttling valve (SCV). With increasing of the evaporating temperature or decreasing outlet temperature of condenser, the performance of the two cycles is an increasing trend. With increasing of pressure ratio, the performances of all cycles are decreased. Under the same comparison conditions, expander cycle performance superior to the throttle valve performance.
