Low temperature storage with a single refrigeration system only stable up to 228 K temperature. The purpose of this study is to develop a low temperature cool storage with cascade refrigeration system, with hydrocarbon refrigerants in terms of energy and exergy analysis. Experimental research in laboratories using refrigerant hydrocarbon MC22 and MC134 on the hight temperature circuit, and R404A and R502 using on low temperature circuit. Condenser heat exchanger using a type of exchanger plate. Resulting from this research, obtained that result the MC22/R404A, MC22/R502 and MC134/R404A refrigerant pair can reach a temperature of 220 K. The MC22/R404A refrigerant pair has god performance, COP, total loss exergy, and exergy efficiency is better than MC22/R502, and MC134/R04A refrigerant pairs.

In this work the thermodynamic performance of a transcritical R744 booster supermarket refrigeration system equipped with R290 dedicated mechanical subcooling (DMS) was exhaustively investigated with the aid of the advanced exergy analysis. The outcomes obtained suggested that improvement priority needs to be addressed to the manufacturing of more efficient high-stage (HS) compressors, followed by the enhancement of the gas cooler/condenser (GC), of the medium-temperature (MT) evaporators, of the R290 compressor, and of the low-temperature (LT) evaporators. These conclusions were different from those drawn by the application of the conventional exergy assessment. Additionally, it was found that GC can be enhanced mainly by reducing the irreversibilities owing to the simultaneous interaction among the components. The R290 compressor would also have significantly benefitted from the adoption of such measures, as half of its avoidable irreversibilities were exogenous. Unlike the aforementioned components, all the evaporators were improvable uniquely by decreasing their temperature difference. Finally, the approach temperature of GC and the outdoor temperature were found to have a noteworthy impact on the avoidable irreversibilities of the investigated solution.
