Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A heat transfer method using ternary compositions containing 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene, 1,1-difluoroethane and difluoromethane, said compositions being especially interesting as a heat transfer fluid in compression refrigeration systems comprising exchangers operation in counterflow mode or in split flow mode with counterflow tendency. The use of a ternary composition of 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene, 1,1-difluoroethane and difluoromethane as heat transfer fluid in compression-type refrigeration systems with exchangers operating in countercurrent mode or in crossed-current mode with countercurrent tendency.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . The use of a ternary composition of 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene, 1,1-difluoroethane and difluoromethane as heat transfer fluid in compression-type refrigeration systems with exchangers operating in countercurrent mode or in crossed-current mode with countercurrent tendency. 2 . The use as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the ternary composition contains essentially from 20 to 80 wt. % of 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene and from 15 to 40 wt. % of difluoromethane and from 5 to 40 wt. % of difluoroethane. 3 . The use as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the ternary composition contains essentially from 20 to 70 wt. % of 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene and from 20 to 40 wt. % of difluoromethane and from 10 to 40 wt. % of difluoroethane. 4 . The use as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the composition contains essentially from 35 to 70 wt. % of 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene and from 20 to 25 wt. % of difluoromethane and from 10 to 40 wt. % of difluoroethane. 5 . The use as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the composition is stabilized. 6 . A method of heat transfer in which ternary compositions of 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene, 1,1-difluoroethane and difluoromethane are used as heat transfer fluid in compression-type refrigeration systems with exchangers operating in countercurrent mode or in crossed-current mode with countercurrent tendency. 7 . The method as claimed in claim 6 , characterized in that the composition contains essentially from 35 to 70 wt. % of 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene and from 20 to 25 wt. % of difluoromethane and from 10 to 40 wt. % of difluoroethane. 8 . The method as claimed in claim 6 , characterized in that it is employed in the presence of a lubricant.
