Abstract

The mixed-refrigerant Joule-Thomson refrigerator (MJTR) is simple in structure, safe and reliable, and is suitable for temperatures from 80 to 230 K. Trifluoromethane (R23) and octafluoropropane (R218) are satisfactory as non-flammable refrigerants in MJTR. In this paper, the gas-phase single-cycle method was used to conduct a vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) experiment on the R23 + R218 binary system in the temperature range from 223.150 K to 263.150 K. The VLE experimental data were correlated using the Peng-Robinson (PR) equation of state and the Huron-Vidal (HV) mixing rule combined with non-random two-liquid (NRTL) activity coefficient model. The maximum average absolute relative deviation of pressure (AARDp) and the maximum average absolute deviation of vapor phase composition (AADy) are 0.67% and 0.005, respectively.
