Abstract
This paper presents a detailed experimental investigation of the auxiliary gas circuit. The gas mixture in the circuit mainly consists of the vapour of the refrigerant (ammonia) and the inert gas (helium). A clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeter measures the volume flow rate of the gas mixture and the mole fraction of helium and ammonia continuously. The influence of an increasing volume flow on the mass transfer in the auxiliary gas circuit is shown by using a propeller to force the circulation of the gas mixture.
