dc.description.abstract The objective of this study is to evaluate adsorption characteristics of R134a and R404a on commercially available silica gel samples. A constant volume variable pressure method at different adsorption temperatures ranging from 293 to 323 K and for pressures up to 500 kPa is used in the experimental measurements. Three different type of commercially available silica gel samples were chosen as adsorbent. The isotherms obtained from the experimental measurements were presented. Adsorption parameters were evaluated from the isotherms in order to obtain correlations in the form of the Dubinin-Astakhov (DA) equation. The pressure and temperature dependence of the isosteric enthalpies of adsorption is computed with the evaluation of the measured data and the derived equations. Further, the enthalpy of adsorption data were extracted, and correlations are provided for adsorbent-adsorbate pairs obtained from the combinations of the three different silica gel specimens and two refrigerants. en
