Abstract
A method for providing refrigeration wherein a first multicomponent refrigerant is condensed to form a saturated liquid and vaporized against a condensing second multicomponent refrigerant which has a dew point less than the dew point and preferably the bubble point of the saturated liquid, and has a bubble point greater than that of the vaporizing first multicomponent refrigerant, and after providing refrigeration to a refrigeration load, may be superheated against the condensing first and second multicomponent refrigerants.
