3The Purpose of 1234yf EvaluationThe Purpose of 1234yf EvaluationProcedure

STEP-1:1. Is a simple ‘Drop-in*’ possible?

- Cooling Performance, System Efficiency andFuel Consumption- Material Compatibility- Flammability Risk Assessment- Toxicity

2. If not possible, evaluate the influence.

STEP-2:1. Confirmation of Durability and Reliability.2. Confirmation of a vehicle marketability.

Only ‘Charge’ and ‘Expansion Valve’ werechanged to optimize system performance.

45 oC Evaporator entry is few cases.Besides, this condition is severe for somebench facilities.

60 oC Condenser entry is severe at somebench facilities. Omit this test condition.

35 oC /25% humidity is severe at some bench.Use 40% instead of 25%.

Set point 10 adapts only external variablecompressor.Internal type is impossible.Fix type uses variable thermo switch but it’snot major. And it seems not crucial to comparedifferent refrigerants for fix type compressor.

9kg/min is large for air volume of a small car.Max air volume uses test data.Medium air flow depends on each ratio

Under high load condition and with the same AC systemspecs with modified TXV,

Cooling PerformanceSlightly less but quite similar

Fuel ConsumptionAlmost equal to R134a (Negligible influence)

HFO1234yf is the least global warming up impactwithin 3 refrigerants (R134a, 1234yf, CO2(R744)).

If we apply higher technology such as IHX and ECV,then there is another potential to improve LCCP result on1234yf system.

Based on our investigations, we conclude as follows,

STEP-1 Evaluation:We found no fatal concern at this time includingEnvironmental impact (over fuel consumption),Flammability and Toxicity

STEP-2 Evaluation:

System durability and reliability will be evaluated byindividual JAMA members

ConclusionConclusion

1234yf has the potential to be a Global solution
