Abstract
depleting potential (ODP) and global warming potential (GWP). Hence HFC refrigerants are used now-a-days. Many research papers have been published on the subject of replacing CFC and HCFC refrigerants with other types of refrigerants. This paper presents a comparative analysis of two refrigerants working in a one stage vapor compression refrigeration system with sub-cooling and superheating. These refrigerants are: Dichlorodifluoromethane (R-12) and Tetrafluoroethane (R-134a).
