dc.description.abstractThis review paper present the possibilities of using hydrocarbons in the cooling and heating purposes in
dc.description.abstractthe vapor compression system are discussed elaborately. Different types of hydrocarbons (HC) as alternatives in
dc.description.abstractterms of energy efficiency, exergy efficiency and heat transfer performance are analyzed. In developing countries,
dc.description.abstractmost of the vapor compression systems use halogenated refrigerants (HCFCs) due to their high thermal
dc.description.abstractperformance along with cost effectiveness. However, these refrigerants are harmful for the environmental
dc.description.abstractbelongings such as depletion of ozone layer and global warming. The search of alternative refrigerants is an ongoing
dc.description.abstractprocess. This paper analyzes the different experimental and theoretical studies with HCs and their mixtures with
dc.description.abstractHFCs and found that these are environmental friendly. It is concluded that some HCs, especially R600a and R290
dc.description.abstractare energy efficient and environmental friendly for the refrigeration and heat pumps. These also showed higher
dc.description.abstractexergy efficiency compared to the other refrigerants like R134a, R12 and R22. REFPROP 7 software has been used
dc.description.abstractto determine the thermophysical properties of the refrigerants.
