Abstract:
This paper describes a semi-theoretical simulation
model, CYCLE11 C02, for a transcritical carbon dioxide
vapor-compression refrigeration cycle. CYCLE11 CO2 is
based on an earlier simulation model, CYCLE11-UA,
developed at the National Institutes of Standards and
Technology for evaluating alternative refrigerants and
refrigerant mixtures. Here we describe CYCLE11 CO2, its
inputs, its outputs, and present some typical simulation
results. The simulation results are compared to
experimental data.
