R444B

 

R444B (also known as Soltice L20) is a zeotropic mixture consisting of 48.5 weight% R1234ze(E), 41.5% R32, and 10% R152A.   It is considered to be a replacement fluid for R22.  It has a molar mass of 72.76 kg/kmol.

 

Property data are provided using a pseudo-pure generalized equation of state fitted by F-Chart Software using thermodynamic property data generated by REFPROP.  The model is applicable for temperatures between 180 K and 430 K with reduced densities up to 3.  The reference state is saturated liquid at 0 C for which specific enthalpy and entropy are 200 kJ/kg and 1.0 kJ/kg-K, respectively.  

 

Transport properties are estimated using a corresponding states approach as suggested in:
