Review of stationary and transport CO2 refrigeration and air conditioning technologies

Riley B. Barta et al.

Summary: CO2 has gained popularity as a refrigerant due to its low global warming potential, non-toxicity, non-flammability, and low cost. However, it requires more compressor power under moderate and high-ambient conditions, necessitating cycle modifications to achieve comparable coefficient of performance values.

Thermodynamic, economic, and environmental analyses of various novel ejector refrigeration subcooled transcritical CO2 systems

Vinay Kumar Yadav et al.

Summary: The study proposes and compares various ejector refrigeration-based dedicated subcooling methods in the CO2 refrigeration system. Cycle 4 is found to have the highest performance and efficiency at optimum operating conditions, but with operational restrictions, while cycles without an internal heat exchanger have less environmental pollution. In terms of cost-effectiveness, Cycle 4 is the best choice.
