Abstract: In this work experiment is performed by using titanium oxide (Tio2) nanoparticles at three different nanoaparticles containing lubricants 0.2g/l,0.4g/l as well as 0.6g/l . An experiment was performed by dispersing titanium oxide (Tio2) nanoparticles and the variables such as compressor work, Coefficient of performance (C.O.P) and refrigeration has been analysed.The experiment was conducted with R134a refrigerant under steady state conditions.Inclusion of Tio2 nanoparticles improved the coefficient as well as cooling capacity of presentation and the compressor work is get reduced.
Keywords: Coefficient of performance, Nano lubricants, R134a, Tio2 nanoparticles.
Scope of the Article: Refrigeration System
