Performance of a Domestic Refrigerator Using Nanoparticles-Based Polyolester Oil Lubricant

The performance of a domestic refrigerator with the addition of nanoparticles in the lubricant was experimentally investigated. Different sizes of nanoparticles of Al2O3 and TiO2 were added to the polyolester (POE) oil in two different volume concentrations (0.05 and 0.1 vol.%). Energy consumption t...
