Abstract
A water-based refrigerant for a thermal working machine. The refrigerant for a thermal working machine (150) having an evaporator (A), a condenser (B), a compressor (CGL), and a throttle element (D). The refrigerant is based on water and comprises a refrigerant component with a hydroxyl group, for example in the form of ethanol. The use of such a mixture as a refrigerant for a thermal working machine and for a thermal working machine having such a refrigerant, and to a method for operating a thermal working machine having such a refrigerant is also disclosed.
Claims16
A thermal working machine (150, 151) comprising an evaporator (A) connected in fluid communication with a condenser (B), a compressor (CGL, CKL), a throttle element (D), and a refrigerant circuit (152, 153) including a water-based refrigerant having a refrigerant component including a hydroxyl group and the refrigerant circuit (152, 153) including a refrigerant adjusting device (%A) for changing the refrigerant component including the hydroxyl group during the operation of the thermal working machine (150, 151).
