Bare, J. PROGRAM TO DETERMINE PERFORMANCE OF FLUORINATED ETHERS AND FLUORINATED PROPANES IN A COMPRESSOR CALORIMETER. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Washington, D.C., EPA/600/A-92/009 (NTIS PB92139468).
Description:
The paper discusses a program to determine the performance of fluorinated ethers and fluorinated propanes in a compressor calorimeter. These chlorine free ethers and propanes are being considered as potential long-term replacements for CFC-11, -12, -114, and -115. A standard compressor calorimeter is being used to evaluate the capacity and performance of these chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and their proposed alternatives. An oil-free diaphragm compressor will allow performance testing independent of the effects of oils. Testing is on-going at the Stratospheric Ozone Refrigeration Laboratory of EPA/AEERL at Research Triangle Park, NC.
