Development of a residential gas fired absorption heat pump. Physical and thermodynamic properties of R123A/ETFE system development and testing economic analysis. Final report

OSTI ID:6184712
This report covers the development work on the R123a/ETFE (ethyltetrahydro furfuryl ether) pair and an economic analysis of the system. Extensive thermodynamic and physical properties of the R123a/ETFE system were developed. Theoretical analysis of the data was made and showed very good performance. Subsequent testings on equipment not fully developed for R123a/ETFE confirmed this very good performance. The economic analysis showed the system competitive in most areas of the US if improved performance goals (COP = 1.5) can be met. The most important factors in determining the competitiveness are heating to cooling ratios and the relative cost of gas and electric.
