N2 - To overcome the shortages of traditional working pairs (LiBr/H2O and NH3/H2O) for absorption-refrigeration systems (ARSs), novel working pairs consisting of low global warming potential (GWP) hydrofluorocarbons difluoroethane (R152a) and difluoromethane (R32) plus low-viscosity ionic liquid N,N‑diethyl-2‑methoxy-N-methylethan-1-aminium bis((trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl)amide ([DEME][TFSI]) are studied. Firstly, solubilities of R152a and R32 in [DEME][TFSI] are measured by the isochoric saturation method in the temperature range of 293 K ∼ 343 K and pressure range of 0.14 MPa ∼ 1.664 MPa with the relative expanded uncertainty of 0.03. A high-GWP hydrofluorocarbon 1,1,1-trifluoroethane (R143a) is involved in the experiment for further comparison. The non-random two-liquid model is used to correlate the vapor-liquid equilibrium data with average absolute relative errors of 0.55 % (R152a), 0.58 % (R32), and 0.94 % (R143a), respectively. [DEME][TFSI] shows its low viscosity and good solubility of hydrofluorocarbons by contrast with conventional ionic liquids. A refrigerant solubility rank order in [DEME][TFSI]: R152a > trans-1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene (R1234ze(E)) > R32 > 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoro-1-propene (R1234yf) > R143a is obtained from the comparison. This work provides the possibility to apply low-GWP working pairs R152a/[DEME][TFSI] and R32/[DEME][TFSI] in ARSs.
