These fluids are presumably used for removing heat by evaporation not far from the normal boiling point.
They would subsequently be compressed and cooled to liquify them, before being recycled.
Caution should be exercised using flammable or toxic compounds.
Fluorinated hydrocarbons may be prohibited to avoid destruction of Earth's ozone layer.
