Methodology for the substitution of R-22 refrigerant for (R-290) propane in window conditioner air

Main Article Content

Fernando José Rosillo Corrales

Abstract

This scientific article results from a  Master’s thesis and offers some theorical considerations and results obtained from the substitution of R’22 refrigerant by R’290 propane in an air conditioner set at tropical climatic conditions so as to protect the ozone layer preventing global warming. It also states the properties of both refrigerants, the steps to follow for the substitution and the results of the investigation. The practical application of the proposal not only saves electric power but also helps to keep a proper environment for human life
