Abstract

A working fluid for heat cycle, which has less influence over the ozone layer, has less influence over global warming, and has favorable cycle performance, is provided. The working fluid contains trifluoroethylene and difluoroethylene and the proportion of the difluoroethylene is less than 1.5 mass % based on the working fluid.

Claims (19)

1. A working fluid for heat cycle, comprising

trifluoroethylene, 1,1-difluoroethylene, and difluoromethane,

wherein a proportion of 1,1-difluoroethylene is less than 1.5 mass % based on an entire amount of the working fluid.

2. The working fluid according to claim 1 , wherein a proportion of trifluoroethylene is at least 20 mass % based on the entire amount of the working fluid.

3. The working fluid according to claim 1 , further comprising

a hydrofluoroolefin.

4. The working fluid according to claim 3 , wherein the hydrofluoroolefin is 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene.

5. A working fluid for heat cycle, comprising

trifluoroethylene, 1,1-difluoroethylene, and difluoromethane,

wherein a proportion of 1,1-difluoroethylene is less than 1.5 mass % based on an entire amount of the working fluid, and a total proportion of trifluoroethylene and difluoromethane is at least 80 mass % based on the entire amount of the working fluid.

6. The working fluid according to claim 5 , wherein a proportion of trifluoroethylene is at least 20 mass % based on the entire amount of the working fluid.

7. A working fluid for heat cycle, comprising

trifluoroethylene, 1,1-difluoroethylene, difluoromethane, and 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene,

wherein a proportion of 1,1-difluoroethylene is less than 1.5 mass % based on an entire amount of the working fluid, and a total proportion of trifluoroethylene and 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene is at least 70 mass % based on the entire amount of the working fluid.

8. The working fluid according to claim 7 , wherein a proportion of trifluoroethylene is at least 20 mass based on the entire amount of the working fluid.

9. A working fluid for heat cycle, comprising

trifluoroethylene, 1,1-difluoroethylene, difluoromethane and 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene,

wherein a proportion of 1,1-difluoroethylene is less than 1.5 mass % based on an entire amount of the working fluid.

10. The working fluid according to claim 9 , wherein a proportion of trifluoroethylene is at least 20 mass % and less than 70 mass %, a proportion of difluoromethane is at least 30 mass % and at most 75 mass %, and a proportion of 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene is at most 50 mass %, based on the entire amount of the working fluid.
