    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a heating, ventilating, air conditioning, and refrigeration (HVAC&R) system that includes a variable speed drive (VSD) configured to supply power to a motor configured to drive a compressor of the HVAC&R system, a rectifier of the VSD configured to receive alternating current (AC) power from an AC power source and convert the AC power to direct current (DC) power, a DC bus of the VSD electrically coupled to the rectifier, an inverter of the VSD electrically coupled to the DC bus, where the inverter is configured to convert the DC power to output AC power, the output AC power has a variable voltage and a variable frequency, and the output AC power is directed to the motor, and a battery electrically coupled to the DC bus, where the battery is configured to provide auxiliary DC power to the VSD.

    Abstract: A refrigeration system includes a heat exchanger configured to place a cooling fluid in a heat exchange relationship with a working fluid, a free-cooling circuit having a pump configured to circulate the working fluid through the heat exchanger and a condenser, a flow control valve configured to control a flow rate of the working fluid to the condenser, a condenser bypass valve configured to control a flow rate of the working fluid that bypasses the condenser, and a controller configured to adjust a position of the flow control valve, a position of the condenser bypass valve, a speed of a fan of the condenser, a speed of the pump, and a temperature of a heater based on an ambient temperature, a temperature of the working fluid leaving the condenser, the position of the flow control valve, the position of the condenser bypass valve, or a combination thereof.
