Your probably right about its boiling temp. I would have to refer to a pressure temperature chart to know for sure. I'll take your word on it, for the temps and cross referencing. I'm not aware of any systems out there that use just propane as a sole refrigerant. The ultra low systems I'm talking about use what is called a azotropic refrigerant. Which is 2 or more refrigerants working together to form the desired results. In these Ultra Low applications, Propane is generally used with 3 or 4 other refrigerants in the system They all have different boiling points. I believe they use the propane in there in a small quantity because it aids in the oil flow through the system at those low temperatures. I'm not that familiar with those refrigerants though. I've only worked on a couple and that was about 5 years ago at NOAA in the Seattle Wa port. I had to add a few ounces of this, and a few ounces of that, etc.... to get the thing correct. I'm pretty sure thats the only reason the propane is added though, for the oil qualities. When getting to that low of a temperature, its pretty tricky with the refrigerants and the oils being used. I was fortunate enough to get a little experience working on them, to learn. But generally there are tech's who work on that stuff all the time and specialize in the ultra low stuff. If I had a service call today on one, I would probably try and locate someone more experienced for them, but would work on it and figure it out if they were in a pinch. Usually more efficient when someone is familiar with the system. I hope it didn't sound like I was jumping on you or anyone else about the propane or the amonia. If it did, I apppologize. That was not my intent. They are both excellent refrigerants, but damn, I just don't want to work on a system using them. There was a factory in Germany I think, using R 134a for its ac system in their cranes. They had piped the system in PVC tubing. Seriously, they did. They had multiple leaks in the systems on all of thier cranes, and ALL of the crane operators developed mysterious tumorous growths and all died within a year. Pretty flippin scary. Makes me wonder what I'll come down with when I'm 50.

Still on with the 'L' word? I'll give you two back... Jeff Gannon, your buddy. (that was four, you got a bonus!) Science, by definition, is self-modifying. You want surety, go to church. Science is all about probabilities. Do you assert that Science doesn't leave room for doubt? That's the problem here... you don't have the first clue how Science is done. You can say something is a scientific 'fact'... but it can be proven wrong the next day. Science is done on a preponderance of evidence... but at *no* time can a completely sure conclusion be drawn. Mathematics is the only science that can approach this level of certainty... and Gödel showed that it cannot remain both complete and consistant. Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle removed certainty from Physics. All other sciences are based on these two. Any time Science doesn't leave 'room for doubt', it ceases to be Science, and becomes Faith. You can have your Faith... just don't call it Science. __ Steve .. |

I do not think he CAN switch
>back, 1.) because the laws will not allow a conversion in that direction FYI, it isn't illegal to switch back to a R 12 system. Theres nothing in the laws that says R 12 is illegal to use, only manufacture and release to the atmosphere. If I wanted to build a new R 12 system right now I could, but no one does because it's cost prohibitive. FYI for the group as well...... R 22 is currently on schedule to be phased out, and I believe R 134a is being phased out as well. There are new refrigerants they want us to start using, and I can't remember the number off the top of my head, but the new ones will be running at 400+ PSI. I don't even want to try to hook up my gauges to that system while it is running.... -- Message posted via CarKB.com http://www.carkb.com/Uwe/Forums.aspx/jeep-cars/200506/1 |

And what does Iridium being deposited sixty five millennium ago:

Well... it's evidence of atmospheric effects crossing hemispheres... which you said couldn't happen. Tell me... how many times has the Earth flipped upside down since KT? Please supply a link, I collect real funny stuff. __ Steve .. |
