Abstract

There are provided a composition for a heat cycle system containing a working medium for heat cycle that has a low global warming potential and high stability, which can be used as a substitute for HFC-134a and HFC-245fa, and a heat cycle system using this composition. The composition for a heat cycle system contains: a working medium for heat cycle containing 1-chloro-2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene; and a stabilizer suppressing deterioration of the working medium for heat cycle such as an oxidation resistance improver, a heat resistance improver, or a metal deactivator, and the heat cycle system uses this composition for a heat cycle system.

Claims (27)

1. A composition for a heat cycle system comprising:

a working medium for heat cycle comprising 1-chloro-2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene; and

a stabilizer suppressing deterioration of the working medium for heat cycle, wherein the stabilizer is at least one selected from the group consisting of nitromethane, 1,4-benzoquinone, 3-methoxyphenol, and phenothiazine.

2. The composition for a heat cycle system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the 1-chloro-2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene comprises (Z)-1-chloro-2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene and (E)-1-chloro-2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene at a ratio of 51:49 to 100:0 by mass ratio represented by (Z)-1-chloro-2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene:(E)-1-chloro-2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene.

3. The composition for a heat cycle system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the composition comprises 1 mass ppm to 10 mass % of the stabilizer.

4. The composition for a heat cycle system according to claim 1 , further comprising a refrigerant oil.

5. The composition for a heat cycle system according to claim 4 ,

wherein the refrigerant oil is at least one selected from the group consisting of an ester-based refrigerant oil, an ether-based refrigerant oil, a hydrocarbon-based refrigerant oil, and a naphthenic refrigerant oil.

6. The composition for a heat cycle system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the working medium for heat cycle further comprises a saturated hydrofluorocarbon.

7. The composition for a heat cycle system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the working medium for heat cycle further comprises a hydrofluoroolefin.

8. The composition for a heat cycle system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the working medium for heat cycle further comprises a hydrochlorofluoroolefin other than the 1-chloro-2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene.

9. The composition for a heat cycle system according to claim 1 ,

wherein a proportion of the 1-chloro-2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene to the working medium for heat cycle is 10 to 100 mass %.

10. The composition for a heat cycle system according to claim 9 ,

wherein a content of the 1-chloro-2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene with respect to 100 mass % of the working medium for heat cycle is 20 to 95 mass %.

11. A heat cycle system comprising the composition for a heat cycle system according to claim 1 .

12. The heat cycle system according to claim 11 ,

wherein the heat cycle system is a refrigerating apparatus, an air-conditioning apparatus, a power generation system, a heat transport apparatus, or a secondary cooling machine.

13. The heat cycle system according to claim 11 ,

wherein the heat cycle system is a centrifugal refrigerator.

14. The heat cycle system according to claim 11 ,

wherein the heat cycle system is a low-pressure centrifugal refrigerator.
