Abstract
A number of new alternative refrigerants have been proposed in the past several years to
replace the existing refrigerants used in air-conditioning equipment. In order to study these
refrigerants extensively an in-depth knowledge of their single-phase heat transfer characteristics
and thermodynamic properties is needed. This paper provides a literature review of current
research that has been conducted on single phase flow for alternative refrigerants, addresses a
number of relations for determining the thermodynamic properties of these alternative
refrigerants; and discusses their sensitivity to uncertainty. Finally, an overview of some of the
current research that has been conducted on various enhancements and refrigerant / oil mixtures
is provided as well.
