According to ASHRAE standard 34, the R-number of a chemical refrigerant is assigned systematically according to its molecular structure and has between two and four digits. If there are carbon-carbon multiple bonds, there are four digits in all: the number of these bonds is the first digit and the number of carbon atoms minus one (C-1) is next ...

Used in large tonnage centrifugal chiller applications. All U.S. production and import of virgin HCFCs will be phased out by 2030, with limited exceptions. [72] R-123 refrigerant was used to retrofit some chiller that used R-11 refrigerant Trichlorofluoromethane. The production of R-11 was banned in developed countries by Montreal Protocol in 1996.
Many refrigerants in the HFO class are inherently stable chemically and inert, non toxic, and non-flammable or mildly flammable. Many HFOs have the proper freezing and boiling points to be useful for refrigeration at common temperatures.
R-410A was invented and patented by Allied Signal (now Honeywell) in 1991. [5] Other producers around the world have been licensed to manufacture and sell R-410A. [6] R-410A was successfully commercialized in the air conditioning segment by a combined effort of Carrier Corporation, Emerson Climate Technologies, Inc., Copeland Scroll Compressors (a division of Emerson Electric Company), and ...
I propose to update the GWP100 values based on AR6 for all pure refrigerants covered by AR6 Table 7.SM.7. A recalculation of the blend GWP100 values would also be needed. An option is to add the GWP20 values simultaneously, in a column to the left of GWP100, as also done in the AR6 report table 7.SM.7, but I would do that in a separate edit so ...
It is a man-made substance used primarily as a refrigerant. When released into the environment, CFC-13 has a high ozone depletion potential, and long atmospheric lifetime. [2] Only a few other greenhouse gases surpass CFC-13 in global warming potential (GWP). [3]: 2 The IPCC AR5 reported that CFC-13's atmospheric lifetime was 640 years. [4]
Difluoromethane is thus a relatively low-risk choice among HFC refrigerants, most of which have higher GWP and longer persistence when leaks occur. The common refrigerant R-410A is a zeotropic , 50/50-mass-percent mixture of difluoromethane and pentafluoroethane ( R-125 ).
