Abstract

Many papers have already done performance study in different types of AC systems on R32 and got a series of conclusions. But research papers on the discharge temperature are scarce. Discharge temperature is one of the important indicators of system security. High discharge temperature will cause the compressor lubricant carbonation, wire protection layer aging and has a severe impact on system security after long running. This paper first does comparison of discharge temperature difference between R32 and R410a in commonly used evaporation and condensation temperature range, then predicts the discharge temperature of air conditioning system with R32 through simulation with lumped models. The results show that the discharge temperature of R32 is higher than R410a’s and the lower–upper limit value range is about 0 ~ 35.4 °C under the same evaporation and condensation temperature. It is found that the model predictions for the discharge temperature showed about deviations of ±10 % compared with actual test data.
