A new magnetic energizer for enhancement of refrigeration and heat pumping equipment

Abstract:

This paper is concerned with ENERGIZER MHD technology. The test results of the performance of some new alternative refrigerant mixtures such as; 410A, R-507, R-407C, and R-404A under various conditions of magnetic field are discussed, analysed and presented. The test results were obtained using an air-source heat pump set up with enhanced surface tubing under various magnetic field conditions. Performance tests were conducted according to the ARI/ASHRAE Standards. The test results demonstrated that as magnetic force increases evaporator performance increases as well as coefficient of performance. The use of magnetic field on refrigeration systems was optimised and results were discussed. Copyright © 2005 by ASME.
