REACTION STOICHIOMETRY FOR A REFRIGER- ANT BLEND Consider the combustion of the mixture R-125/290 (45/ 55), which corresponds to a mole fraction ratio of (0.2311 0.7689). If the R-125 and R-290 were to bum individually, they would undergo the following reactions: R125: CpHFs +0)» CO;+CH,2COR+HF — (F.1) and R290: CyHy + 502 -» 300, + 4,0 2) ‘aking~0.2311 (hemo fraction of 125) andy 0.7689 (the mole ation of R-250, the mixture might be thought to ‘undergo the following combustion reaction: Cy, +yC3Hg + (+ 59)0} > (43))00, + CE, COR, + xHIF + 4,0 3) ‘But Equation F3 would be incorrect, Instead combine the atoms of the R-125 and R-290 into a hypothetical molecule: CAHIR 5 + yCyHly > Cay 3yBir Fe ey) This hypothetical molecule is then reacted with oxygen: Cars 37H 4 Fa # (+ 59902 -> Ox + 39)CO> + SAH + [G+ 8 —S9/2]H0 5) Jn comparing Equations F3 and FS, nots that the products of combustion are different.

'ASHRAS's short-range goal is to ensure that the eystems and components within its scope do not impact the indoor and ‘outdoor environment to a greater extent than specified by the standards and guidelines as established by Iself and other responsible bodies, As an ongoing goal, ASHRAE wil, through its Standards Committee and extensive technical committee stucture, continue to generate up-to-date standards and guidelines where appropriate and adopt, recommend, and promote those new! and revised standards developed by other responsible organizations, ‘Through its Handbook, appropriate chapters will contain up-to-date standards and design considerations as the material is systematically revised. ASHRAE wil take the lead with respect to dissemination of environmental information of ts primary interest and will soek ‘out and disseminate information from other responsible organizations that is pertinent, as guides to updating standards and guidelines. ‘The effects of the design and selection of equipment and systems will bo considered within the scope of the system Intended use and expected misuse. The disposal of hazardous materials, if any, wil also be considered. ASHRAE's primary concern for environmental impact will be at the slie where equipment within ASHRAE's scope ‘operates. However, energy source selection and the possible environmental impact due to the energy source and energy ‘rensporition will be considered where possible. Recommendations conceming energy source selection should be made by Its members.ASHRAE - 1791 Tullie Circle NE - Atlante, GA 30329. www.ashrae.org ans
