摘要
The improper usage of refrigerants has a drastic impact on the environment, which is contributing to global warming and ozone layer depletion. The refrigerants which are being used currently have a very high GWP (Global Warming Potential) value that signifies an adverse impact on global warming. Refrigerant properties can be enhanced and modified by making refrigerant blends. This research uses GWP as a measure of refrigerant impact on global warming and provides alternative refrigerant blends for R32, R41, and R152a refrigerants. The results show 89.1% and 88.64% reduction in the GWP value of the R32 refrigerant blend and R152a refrigerant blend respectively. The R41 refrigerant blend has shown a reduction of 78.26%, with higher performance characteristics.
