Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method and a device for providing zeotropic refrigerants in which the refrigerant is formed from a refrigerant blend of at least two components, the components being added to a container in the ratio of their respective mass fractions to the refrigerant, and the refrigerant blend being formed in the container, wherein the temperature and/or the pressure in the container is set by means of a control device such that the refrigerant is present exclusively in the gas phase or exclusively in the liquid phase.

Abstract: A test chamber (10) for conditioning air has a test space (12), and a temperature control device (11) for controlling the temperature of the test space and allowing a temperature in a range of ?80° C. to +180° C., preferably ?100° C. to +200° C., to be established within the test space, the temperature control device having a cooling device (16) with a cooling circuit (17), a heat exchanger (18), a compressor (19), a condenser (20), and an expansion element (21), wherein the refrigerant is a nearly azeotropic and/or zeotropic refrigerant mixture of a mass percentage of carbon dioxide and a mass percentage of at least one of the components ethane, ethene, hexafluoroethane, pentafluoroethane, monofluoro-ethane, 1,1-difluoroethene, fluoromethane and/or propane and/or xenon, the refrigerant having a relative CO2 equivalent of <3000, preferably <500, in particular preferably <10, with respect to 20 years.
