Vapor pressure table for refrigerant R134a

The vapor pressure table for every refrigerant is published in literature for refrigeration system engineers. This table makes it possible to determine the vapor pressure acting on the column of liquid in a vessel if the temperature of the vessel is known.

As there is a characteristic vapor pressure table for every refrigerant, refrigerant can be identified by measuring pressure and temperature.

NOTE: At absolute pressure, 0 bar corresponds to absolute vacuum. Normal ambient pressure (positive pressure) corresponds to 1 bar absolute pressure. 0 pressure corresponds to an absolute pressure of one bar on most pressure gauges (indicated by -1 bar below 0).
