Performance and Exergetic Investigation of a Domestic Split Air Conditioner using Blends of R22 and R290

In this article, the mechanical performance and exergy of a one-ton split type air conditioning system by using the mixture of two different refrigerants of different proportions have been investigated. It has become necessary to find an alternative of Chlorodifluoromethane (R22) as it has high ODP...
