| Summary: | Thermodynamic properties of zeotropic mixtures of R600a/R23/R14 have been investigated and calculated based on the established mathematical model. The deviations of bubble pressure and vapor composition between the simulation results and the experimental data were −0.16% and −1.22% for R600a/R23 and −0.14% and 0.5% for R134a/R23, respectively. The simulation results of R32/R125/R134a were compared with the experimental values of the component, and the average error was 0.31%, and most deviations were within ±5%. The average error in enthalpy value and entropy value between the simulation and National Institute of Standard Technology data was −0.25% and 3.33%, respectively. This suggests that the simulation results meet the requirements of engineering calculation. Based on the experimental results, the thermodynamic properties of the auto-cascade refrigeration system were calculated and analyzed in detail. The pressure–enthalpy diagrams of the auto-refrigerating cascade system with R600a/R23/R14 under the operating conditions were given, and the cycle of this system can be clearly described by the diagram of spatial pressure–enthalpy, which indicates that this simulation program could analyze the system cycle effectively and provide a direction for improvement of the auto-refrigerating cascade system.
