Abstract
This chapter presents data for the thermodynamic and transport properties of refrigerants. The refrigerants have a full-page thermodynamic property chart on pressure-enthalpy coordinates with tabular data for the saturated liquid and vapor on the facing page. The properties tabulated are temperature, vapor pressure, liquid density, vapor volume, surface tension, and the liquid and vapor values of the enthalpy, entropy, specific heat at constant pressure, velocity of sound, viscosity, and thermal conductivity. For each of the cryogenic fluids, a second table of properties is provided for the vapor at a pressure of one standard atmosphere. This is a revision to the 2001 edition of the ASHRAE Handbook. Revised tables have been prepared for R23, R32, R124, R125, R152a, R245fa, R404A, R407C, R410A, R507A, propane, butane, isobutane, propylene, nitrogen, air, oxygen, and argon. Retained from the 2001 edition are the tables for R12, R22, R123, R134a, R143a, ammonia, steam, carbon dioxide, methane, ethane, ethylene, hydrogen, parahydrogen, and helium. In addition, revised pressure-enthalpy diagrams have been prepared for R12, R22, R23, R32, R123, R124, R125, R134a, R143a, R152a, R245fa, R404A, R407C, R410A, R507A, ammonia, steam, carbon dioxide, methane, ethane, propane, butane, isobutane, ethylene, propylene, nitrogen, air, oxygen, and argon. The previous diagrams are retained for hydrogen, parahydrogen, and helium. Separate tables and diagrams have been prepared for SI and I-P (inch-pound) units. All values have been calculated using the NIST REFPROP program.
