Nano-refrigerants and Nano-lubricants: Fundamentals and Applications provides an overview of nano-refrigerants and nano-lubricants, their synthesis, characterization, and influence of nanoparticles on the thermophysical properties. The book also describes the theoretical modeling and correlations using artificial intelligence, along with the effect of all these parameters on potential applications. Future challenges and research directions are thoroughly addressed by authors. Nano-refrigerants and Nano-lubricants are a novel class of nanofluids containing a mixture of nanoparticles, lubricant, and refrigerant, and because of their enhanced heat transfer properties, they have a broad potential range of residential and commercial applications. - Summarizes preparation and characterization techniques for nano-refrigerants and nano-lubricants - Examines a selection of nanoparticles based on variation in thermophysical properties and includes theoretical models and correlations for predicting their properties - Features stability analysis of nano-refrigerants and nano-lubricants

As the HVACR industry continues to move forward and innovate, the refrigerants that were once so commonplace are now being phased out. Replacing them are more energy efficient, environmentally friendlier refrigerants, known as Low GWP refrigerants. Many of these new refrigerants are classified by ASHRAE as A2L, or slightly flammable. The industry is also seeing expanded use of some hydrocarbon (A3) refrigerants, such as propane and isobutane. Students and technicians will require additional training for the safe handling and transportation of these refrigerants. The Low GWP refrigerant program manual covers: Refrigerant safety Introduction to Low GWP refrigerants Refrigerant properties and characteristics The refrigeration cycle Working with refrigerant blends Proper installation and service guidelines Flammable refrigerant considerations Explanation of the associated codes and standards for A2L refrigerants
