User-Friendly Refrigeration Pipe Sizing Manual for Newer Refrigerants?

User-Friendly Refrigeration Pipe Sizing Manual for Newer Refrigerants?

User-Friendly Refrigeration Pipe Sizing Manual for Newer Refrigerants?

(OP)
Has anyone run across a good user-friendly refrigeration pipe sizing manual for some of the "newer" refrigerants, such as 410A, etc.?

I have old Trane Reciprocating Refrigeration manual, which I use for sizing pipes.  I find it to be much easier to use than the Carrier charts or ASHRAE tables.  The pipe sizing data is presented with various equivalent lengths in the left column and the corresponding data.  Other references base everything on an equivalent length of 100' and leave it up to the user to expand it out.

To my knowledge, the Trane manual was last published in 1977, so it doesn't have modern day refrigerants.  Anyone have a good reference?
