TEST REPORT #67 Compressor Calorimeter Test of Refrigerant ARM-25 in a R-404A Reciprocating Compressors

Laurence Pérouffe Gaël Renevier Tecumseh Products Company 2 avenue Blaise Pascal 38090 Vaulx Milieu - France January 18, 2016 This report has been made available to the public as part of the author company’s participation in the AHRI’s Low-GWP AREP.

1. Introduction:

This report covers the calorimeter testing results of refrigerant blend ARM25 (GWP100 <

150) performed by Tecumseh Products Company (Tecumseh) in the framework of the

AHRI Low-GWP AREP II study. The testing was done from September to October 2015

in Tecumseh’s ISO 17025 accredited Research and Development lab facility located in

La Verpillière, France. The refrigerant was tested with two Tecumseh reciprocating

compressors primarily approved for R-404A:

FH2511Z for low back pressure commercial refrigeration type application

FH4540Z for high back pressure commercial refrigeration type application

No optimization, oil or hardware changes were made to account for the alternative blend.

d. Description and Size of Test Loop

The performance tests were done on a secondary fluid calorimeter on the suction side

according method A of standard NF EN 13771-1 : 2003. A direct expansion coil serves as

a primary evaporator. This evaporator is suspended in the upper part of a pressure-tight

and heat-insulated vessel. A heater is located in the base of this vessel, which is charged

with a secondary fluid so that the heater is well below the liquid surface.

As per NF EN 13771-1 : 2003 clause 4.2.2 this calorimeter is in constant use and is

subject to periodical calibration in accordance with EN ISO 9001 therefore a second

concurrent test (i.e mass flow meter) is not necessary

The refrigerant flow is controlled by a constant-pressure and heat-insulated expansion

device located close to the calorimeter. The calorimeter is insulated and exposed to the

ambient temperature surrounding the compressor ; the secondary fluid temperature is

maintained to the same temperature by varying the heater power in such a manner that

there is no heat exchange between the calorimeter and the ambient.

The suction gas temperature is adjusted to basic test condition by injecting refrigerant

collected at the condenser outlet in the suction line via an expansion device.

g. Compressor operating conditions during test

Operating map points were measured first with R404A then with ARM25

with 10K (18°F) superheat and with fixed 20°C (68°F) suction gas

temperature according NF EN 12900: 2013.

3. Results

All compressor tests are performed at a dew point temperature for suction and discharge pressure conditions, per AHRI

Standard 540 requirements. This does not have an impact on comparing compressor performance between two or more

refrigerants that do not exhibit temperature glide. However, when refrigerants exhibit temperature glide, it is important to note

that actual systems operate closer to the mid-point condition. When comparing compressor performance of one refrigerant with

glide to another refrigerant without glide, or comparing two refrigerants with significantly different glides, comparison at

pressures corresponding to the midpoint of the temperature glide rather than the dew point will yield results that are more

representative of actual operation in a system. The total temperature glide for ARM25 is 12.2K at 1 bar and 6.6K at 30 bars.

R404A is near azeotropic blend with small temperature glide less than 1K and from practical purposes can be neglected.

4.1.1. Operating map with 10K superheat (18°F)

Tables and Figures of 4.1.1. show the deviation of ARM25 to R-404A cooling

capacity, power input, and cooling COP respectively, vs evaporating /condensing

temperature. At extreme operating conditions, testing uncertainties could lead to

higher than normal variability in reported results.

5. Summary

The compressor calorimeter testing of Arkema ARM25 was carried out at dew point conditions versus R-

404A.

Overall the compressor capacity is within 75% to +105% of R-404A rated performance across the

operating map, with extremes at high pressure ratio that should be double checked on smaller calorimeter

capacity range to eliminate potential testing uncertainty.

The compressor COP of ARM25 is between about 85% to +115% of R-404A across the compressor

operating envelope.

The discharge temperature of ARM25 is very slightly higher than R-404A.
