Just Accepted “Just Accepted” manuscripts have been peer-reviewed and accepted for publication. They are posted online prior to technical editing, formatting for publication and author proofing. The American Chemical Society provides “Just Accepted” as a service to the research community to expedite the dissemination of scientific material as soon as possible after acceptance. “Just Accepted” manuscripts appear in full in PDF format accompanied by an HTML abstract. “Just Accepted” manuscripts have been fully peer reviewed, but should not be considered the official version of record. They are citable by the Digital Object Identifier (DOI®). “Just Accepted” is an optional service offered to authors. Therefore, the “Just Accepted” Web site may not include all articles that will be published in the journal. After a manuscript is technically edited and formatted, it will be removed from the “Just Accepted” Web site and published as an ASAP article. Note that technical editing may introduce minor changes to the manuscript text and/or graphics which could affect content, and all legal disclaimers and ethical guidelines that apply to the journal pertain.

Two challenges are addressed: the difficulties in solving a complex product-process design problem and making it accessible for practical applications, as well as the impact of the working fluid property uncertainties on the solution. A Monte Carlo sampling is applied to generate sets of different property parameter combinations (virtual fluids), which are subsequently evaluated in the heat pump process model. The distance between the property values of the virtual fluid and the uncertainty bound of the properties of real fluids

(collected from a database) are calculated. The fluids that are closest to the top-performing virtual fluids are further analyzed through evaluation in the cycle and subsequent uncertainty propagation of the respective input property uncertainties to the model output uncertainties. The methodology has been applied to an industrial heat pump system used for waste heat recovery from a spray drying facility in dairy industry. To remain focused on the validation of underlying concepts of the methodology, the study considered screening only among cyclic hydrocarbon working fluids. The compounds identified by the methodology had a low global warming potential (
