What is Refrigerants?
Refrigerant is a chemical substance or mixture of fluids that function as cooling agents in heat pumps and refrigeration cycles. Its working is based on the principle of phase transition that is liquid to gas & vice versa at flexible operating temperatures. Various types of refrigerants can be used as a primary working fluids in absorption refrigeration systems as well as secondary fluids to convey thermal energy from one medium to another. The requirement of refrigerants has been rapidly increased in the industrial and commercial sectors over the years. Various types of refrigerants used in various applications are HCFC (HydroChlorofluorocarbons), HFC (hydrofluorocarbons), HFO (Hydrofluoroolefins), isobutane, propane, ammonia, carbon dioxide, as well as others.
