Refrigerant
e) Latent Heat of Vapourisation :- It should have HIGH Latent heat of
Vaporisation.
b) Corrosiveness :- It should not be corrosive & should not have any
effect on materials used in equipment.
c) Leak Detection :- It should have less tendency to leak & if it is
leaking it should be easily detectable.
e) Miscibility with Oil :- It should be immiscible with oil & should
not have any effect on the properties of Oil used for Lubrication.

Terminology
Refrigerator- machine used to extract heat from body at low temperature
to high temperature.
Refrigerant effect- Ratio between heat removed and the time taken. Heat
removed/ time taken.
Ton of Refrigeration- Quantity of heat absorbed to freeze one ton of 7
