Refrigeration & A/C Cycle Calculator

Typical 0.65–0.80 reciprocating/screw, 0.75–0.85 centrifugal. Work, discharge enthalpy and COP follow from this and the Peng-Robinson state points.

Atmospheric by default. CO₂ needs >518 kPa to liquefy (else it desublimes/frosts below its triple point).

Typical: 8–15% small Linde-Hampson plants · 20–35% large N₂/air ASU & H₂ trains · 35–45% baseload LNG (C3-MR/DMR) · 40–60% simple auto-refrigeration flash duty. Note: published LNG "specific power" figures often count electrical compressor duty only, excluding gas-turbine driver fuel — compare like-for-like.
