Trifluoroethylene compositions and their uses
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to compositions based on trifluoroethylene, and their uses as heat transfer fluid, in particular in refrigeration, air conditioning and heat pump.
TECHNICAL BACKGROUND
Fluids based on fluorocarbon compounds are widely used in vapor compression heat transfer systems, in particular air conditioning, heat pump, refrigeration or freezing devices. These devices have in common that they are based on a thermodynamic cycle comprising the vaporization of the fluid at low pressure (in which the fluid absorbs heat); compression of the vaporized fluid to a high pressure; condensation of the vaporized fluid into high pressure liquid (in which the fluid rejects heat); and expansion of the fluid to complete the cycle.
The choice of a heat transfer fluid (which can be a pure compound or a mixture of compounds) is dictated on the one hand by the thermodynamic properties of the fluid, and on the other hand by additional constraints. Thus, a particularly important criterion is that of the impact of the fluid considered on the environment. In particular, chlorinated compounds (chlorofluorocarbons and hydrochlorofluorocarbons) have the disadvantage of damaging the ozone layer. Therefore, they are now generally preferred non-chlorinated compounds such as hydrofluorocarbons, fluoroethers and fluoroolefins.
Currently used heat transfer fluids are HFC-134a, R404A (ternary mixture of 52% HFC-143a, 44% of HFC-125 and 4% of HFC-134a), R452A (ternary mixture of 11% HFC-32, 59% HFC-125 and 30% HFO1234yf), R407C (ternary mixture of 52% HFC-134a, 25% HFC-125 and 23% HFC-32 ) ....
However, there is a constant need to develop other heat transfer fluids having at least one of the following advantages: a global warming potential (GWP) lower than that of the above fluids, and / or having equivalent and preferably improved performance, and / or having a low temperature slip at the evaporator, and / or having a low outlet temperature at the compressor, and / or being low or non-flammable.

The compositions according to the invention can be prepared by any known process, such as for example by simple mixing of the different compounds with each other.
The compositions according to the invention advantageously have a GWP of less than 2,000, preferably less than or equal to 1,500, in particular less than or equal to 1,000, for example less than or equal to 500, preferably less than or equal to 200, in especially less than or equal to 150. the GWP can be calculated according to the indications provided by the ^4th report of the Intergovernmental Panel on climate change (IPCC). The GWP of the mixtures is in particular calculated as a function of the mass concentration and the GWP of each component. The GWP of pure compounds are typically listed in the European F-Gas Directive (Regulation (EU) No 517/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council, of April 16, 2014).
The compositions according to the invention are advantageously thermally stable, alone or in combination with additives such as lubricants.
The compositions according to the invention are advantageously little or not flammable.
According to the invention, the compositions advantageously have a lower flammability limit greater than 200 g / m ³ .
Preferably, the compositions advantageously lead to a WCFF composition having a lower flammability limit greater than 230 g / m ³ , preferably greater than or equal to 250 gm ³ , in particular greater than or equal to 280 g / m ³ .
Preferred compositions, as well as the corresponding WCF and WCFF, have a heat of combustion (HOC) of less than 19,000 kJ / m ³ . The heat of combustion according to the invention is defined and determined as indicated in the ASHRAE 34-2013 standard.
The “lower flammability limit” is defined in standard ASHRAE 34-2013 as the minimum concentration of a composition capable of propagating a flame through a homogeneous mixture of the composition and air, under specified test conditions in ASTM E681-04. It can be given for example in kg / m ³ or in% vol.
A composition known as “WCF” (“worst case of formulation for flammability”) is defined in the ASHRAE standard 34-2013, as being a formulation composition with the highest flame propagation speed. This composition is very close to the nominal composition (said nominal composition corresponding in the context of the invention to a composition according to the invention) with a certain tolerance.
A composition known as WCFF (“worst case of fractionation for flammability”) is defined in the ASHRAE standard 34-2013, as being the composition with the highest flame propagation speed. This composition is determined according to a method well defined in the same standard.
In the context of the present invention, the flammability, the flame propagation speed and the lower flammability limit are defined and determined according to the test appearing in standard ASHRAE 34-2013, which refers to standard ASTM E681 for this which is the apparatus used.
Regarding the flame propagation speed, the test method described in the ASHRAE standard 34-2013 is that developed in the thesis of T. Jabbour, “Classification of the flammability of refrigerants based on the fundamental flame speed Under the supervision of Denis Clodic. Thesis, Paris, 2004. The experimental device uses in particular the vertical glass tube method (number of tubes 2, length 150 cm, diameter 40 cm). The use of two tubes makes it possible to make two tests with the same concentration at the same time. The tubes are notably fitted with tungsten electrodes, cesο these are placed at the bottom of each tube, 6.35mm (1/4 inch) apart and are connected to a 15kV and 30mA generator.
The various compositions tested are qualified as flammable or non-flammable as such, according to the criteria defined in standard ASHRAE 34-2013.
Preferred compositions advantageously have a flame propagation speed of less than 10 cm / s, preferably less than or equal to 8 cm / s, preferably less than or equal to 6 cm / s, advantageously less than or equal to 5 cm / s, very advantageously less than or equal to 4 cm / s, less than or equal to 3, less than or equal to 2, less than or equal to 1.5.
Preferred compositions are advantageously classified 2L according to the ASHRAE 34-2013 standard. According to this standard, the 2L classification requires a flame propagation speed of less than 10 cm / s.
Preferred compositions advantageously exhibit a good compromise between good energy performance, low or zero flammability, and low GWP, preferably a GWP of less than 200.
Due to their low flammability, the preferred compositions are advantageously safer when used as heat transfer fluids in refrigeration, air conditioning and for heating. In addition, heat transfer installations (refrigeration, air conditioning, heat pump, etc.) can advantageously include higher charges in composition according to the invention, due to their low flammability. With regard to load limits, reference can typically be made to standard EN378 published in 2008-2009.

Each stage can provide a fluid compression ratio of approximately 4 to 1, that is, the absolute outlet pressure can be approximately four times the absolute suction pressure. Examples of two-stage centrifugal compressors, in particular for automotive applications, are described in documents US 5,065,990 and US 5,363,674.

The installation can also optionally include two (or more) vapor compression circuits, containing identical or distinct fluids / heat transfer compositions. For example, the vapor compression circuits can be coupled together.
The vapor compression circuit operates according to a conventional vapor compression cycle. The cycle includes changing the state of the fluid / heat transfer composition from a liquid phase (or two-phase liquid / vapor) to a vapor phase at a relatively low pressure, then compressing the fluid / composition into vapor phase to a relatively high pressure, the change of state (condensation) of the fluid / heat transfer composition from the vapor phase to the liquid phase at a relatively high pressure, and reducing the pressure to start again the cycle.
In the case of a cooling process, heat from the fluid or from the body which is cooled (directly or indirectly, via a heat transfer fluid) is absorbed by the fluid / the heat transfer composition, during the 'evaporation of the latter, and at a relatively low temperature compared to the environment. The cooling methods include the methods of air conditioning (with mobile installations, for example in vehicles, or stationary), refrigeration and freezing or cryogenics. In the field of air conditioning, mention may be made of domestic, commercial or industrial air conditioning, where the equipment used is either chillers or direct expansion equipment. In the field of refrigeration, we can cite domestic, commercial refrigeration, cold rooms, the food industry, refrigerated transport (trucks, boats, containers).
In the case of a heating process, heat is transferred (directly or indirectly, via a heat transfer fluid) from the fluid / heat transfer composition, during the condensation thereof / this, to fluid or to the body that is heated, and this at a relatively high temperature compared to the environment. The installation for carrying out the heat transfer is called in this case "heat pump". These may include medium and high temperature heat pumps.
It is possible to use any type of heat exchanger for implementing the compositions according to the invention or heat transfer composition according to the invention, and in particular co-current heat exchangers or, preferably, counter-current heat exchangers. Air / refrigerant exchangers can also be used, and are moreover preferred.
According to the invention, the term “counter-current heat exchanger” means a heat exchanger in which heat is exchanged between a first fluid and a second fluid, the first fluid at the inlet of the exchanger exchanging heat with the second fluid at the outlet of the exchanger, and the first fluid at the outlet of the exchanger exchanging heat with the second fluid at the inlet of the exchanger.
For example, counter-current heat exchangers include devices in which the flow of the first fluid and the flow of the second fluid are in opposite directions, or almost opposite. Exchangers operating in cross-current mode with counter-current tendency are also included among the counter-current heat exchangers within the meaning of the present application.
However, according to a preferred embodiment, the invention provides that the cooling and heating methods, and the corresponding installations, comprise an air / refrigerant heat exchanger, either in the condenser or in the evaporator. In fact, the compositions according to the invention or the heat transfer composition defined above are particularly effective with these heat exchangers.
In “low temperature refrigeration” processes, the inlet temperature of the composition according to the invention or heat transfer composition, to the evaporator is preferably from -45 ° C to -15 ° C, in particular from -40 ° C to -20 ° C, more particularly preferably from -35 ° C to -25 ° C and for example around -30 ° C or -20 ° C; and the temperature at the start of the condensation of the composition according to the invention or heat transfer compositions, to the condenser is preferably from 25 ° C to 80 ° C, in particular from 30 ° C to 60 ° C, more particularly preferred from 35 ° C to 55 ° C and for example about 40 ° C.
In “moderate temperature cooling” processes, the inlet temperature of the composition according to the invention or heat transfer composition, to the evaporator is preferably from -20 ° C. to 10 ° C., in particular from - 15 ° C to 5 ° C, more particularly preferably from -10 ° C to 0 ° C and for example around -5 ° C; and the temperature at the start of the condensation of the composition according to the invention or heat transfer composition, in the condenser is preferably from 25 ° C to 80 ° C, in particular from 30 ° C to 60 ° C, more particularly preferred from 35 ° C to 55 ° C and for example about 50 ° C. These methods can be refrigeration or air conditioning methods.
In “moderate temperature heating” processes, the inlet temperature of the composition according to the invention or heat transfer composition, to the evaporator is preferably from -20 ° C. to 10 ° C., in particular from - 15 ° C to 5 ° C, more particularly preferably from -10 ° C to 0 ° C and for example around -5 ° C; and the temperature at the start of the condensation of the composition according to the invention or heat transfer composition, in the condenser is preferably from 25 ° C to 80 ° C, in particular from 30 ° C to 60 ° C, more particularly preferred from 35 ° C to 55 ° C and for example about 50 ° C.
The composition according to the present invention can be used to replace various heat transfer fluids in various heat transfer applications. For example, the compositions according to the invention can be used to replace R404A, R452A, R449A, R449C, R448A, R22, R134a, R152a, R422, R502, R407A, R407F, R407C, R1234yf, or R1234ze.
In certain embodiments, the invention provides compositions which have equivalent or improved energy performance compared to conventional heat transfer fluids, in particular compared to R404A.
According to certain embodiments, the substitution of R404A can advantageously take place without modification of the heat transfer installation or of its operating parameters. In particular, the substitution of R404A can take place without modification of compressor technology.
Correspondingly, the compositions according to the invention are particularly suitable for all applications in which R404A are generally used. The compositions of the invention are therefore particularly suitable for refrigerated transport applications, and in particular refrigerated containers, automobile air conditioning or automobile heating.
All of the embodiments described above can be combined with each other. In particular, the abovementioned uses can apply to all of the preferred or non-preferred compositions of the invention.
In the context of the invention, by "between x and y", or "from x to y", is meant an interval in which the limits x and y are included. For example, the range "between 1 and 2%" includes in particular the values 1 and 2%.
