INVENTORS: KEVIN P. MURPHY, RICHARD F. STAHL and SABATINO R. ORFEO
BACXGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to constant boiling binary mixtures of l-chloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane and certain hydro-carbons. Such mixtures are especially useful as compression refrigerants, particularly in systems using centrifugal or rotary compressors.
The refrigerant capacity per volume pumped of a refrigerant is largely a function of boiling point, the lower boiling refrigerants generally offering the greater capacity at a given evaporator temperature. This factor to a great extent influences the design of refrigeration equipment and affects capacity, power requirements, size and cost of the unit. Another important factor related to boiling point of the refrigerant is minimum cooling temperature desired during the refrigeration cycle, the low r boiling refrigerants being used to achieve the lower refrigeration temperatures. For these reasons, a large number of refrigerants of different boiling temperature and capacity are required to permit flexibility of design and the art is continually faced with the problem of providing new refrigerants as the need arises for new capacities and types of installations.
The lower aliphatic hydrocarbons when substituted by fluorine and chlorine are well-known to have potential as refrig-erants. Many of these fluoro-chloro hydrocarbons exh-ibit certain desired properties including lower toxicity and nonflammability which have resulted in extensive use of such compounds ~n a large number of refrigeration applications. Trichlorofluoromethane and dichlorodifluoromethane are two of the mos~ commonly available chlorine-fluorine hydrocarbon refrigerants available today. There i8 a recognized need for refrigerants with boiling point temper-atures between the relatively high boiling point temperature of trichlorofluoromethane, plus 23.78C. at atmospheric pressure, and the relatively low boiling point temperature of dichlorodi-fluoromethane, m~nus 29.8C. at atmospheric pressure, in order to have available refrigerants of good performance in varying capacities.
Several fluoro-chloro hydroc~rbons have boiling points in this range but suffer from other deficiencies such a~ flam-~ability, poor stability or poor thermodynamic performance. Some example~ of these types of refrigerants are tetrafluorodichloro-ethane, fluorodichloromethane, difluorochloroethane and fluoro-chloromethane.
lt would also be possible to achieve ~he de~ired boiling point by mixing two refrigerants with boiling points above and below the desired one. In this case, for example, mixtures of tr~chlorofluoromethane and dichlorodifluoromethane could be used. ;;
It i~ well known, however, that simple mixtures create problems in design and operation because of segregation of the components in the liquid and vapor phases. ~his problem is particularly troublesome in systems using centrifugal compression because of the large quantities of liquid usually found in the evaporator.

J.09Z755 For the purpose of this discussion, by azeotropic or constant boiling is intended to mean also essentially azeo-tropic or essentially constant boiling. In other words, included w~thin the meaning of these terms are not only the true azeotrope described above at 20.0C, but also other compositions containing the same components in different proportions which are true azeo-tropes at other temperatures and pressures, as well as those equi-valent compositions which are part of the same azeotropic system an,d are azeotrope-like in their properties. As is well recognized in this art, there is a range of compositions containing the same components as the azeotrope, which, not only will exhibit essen-tially eguivalent properties for refrigeration and other applica-tions, but which will exhibit essentially equivalent properties to the true azeotropic composition in terms of constant boiling -' characteristics or tendency not to fractionate upon boiling.
The novel azeotropic composition of the invention all have boiling points lower than that of their individual components.
From the properties of the component~ alone, the reduction in the boillng point temperature and azeotropic characteristics in the mixtures are not expected.
The novel azeotropic mixtures provide increased refrigera-tion capacity over the components and represent new refrigeration mixtures especially useful in systems using centrifugal and rotary compressors. The use of the azeotropic mixtures eliminate the problem of segregation and handling in the operation of the system because of the behavior of azeotropic mixtures essentially as a single component. The novel azeotropic mixtures are substantially non-flammable. ~, Example 1 ~ The azeotropes were determined in the following manner.
Phase studies were made wherein the composition of the various _4_ binary mixtures were varied and the vapor pressures were measured at a temperature of 20.0C. In all cases azeotropic compositions at 20C were obtained at the maximum pressure as reported in the above Table. The azeotrope of l-chloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane and isobutane was verified but its precise composition was not determined.
All the azeotropes have boiling points lower than the lndividual components and thus affords higher refrigeration capacity for the azeotropes than the individual components snd new refrigerating capacity levels.
An evaluation of the refrigeration properties of the l-chloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane/isopentane azeotrope of the invention and its fluorocarbon component is shown in the following Table. Isopentane alone is not suitable as a refrigerant in view of it~ flammability.
