Refrigerant properties

Refrigerant properties:

1. low boiling point & low freezing point.
2.low specific heat and high latent heat (for higher refrigerating effect per kg of refrigerant)
3. working pressures must be optimum(cost & ingress of air)
4.high critical pressure and critical temperature(power requirements)
5.low specific volume

6.higher thermal conductivity (reduce the area evaporator and condensor)
7. non[explosive,corrosive,toxic,flammable]
8. High miscibility and low reactivity with lub oil.
9. High co-efficient of performance.
10. economic& Eco-friendly

Why atomisation test should not be done in slide type fuel valves

Since very small needle lift is obtained in the test equipment result in an unequal pressure distribution in the cut off shaft resulting in a hard contact in a small area along with high frequency oscillations, low lubricity of test oil will increase the chance of seizure. Full lift and high lubricity of heavy oil eliminates this risk  of seizure during normal operation.( Always open and clean slide type valves before testing as cold sticky heavy oil along with small clearances can cause restriction in the movement of the spindle).
