Abstract: A fluid handling system includes an ultrasonic transducer configured to atomize fluid condensate generated by the fluid handling system into atomized fluid particles. The fluid handling system also includes a solid desiccant configured to absorb the atomized fluid particles. The fluid handling system also includes a fluid conduit extending through or against the solid desiccant such that the solid desiccant is configured to cool a heat exchange fluid passing along the fluid conduit.

Abstract: A desuperheater of a heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system includes a first conduit defining a first fluid flow path configured to receive a refrigerant, and a second conduit defining a second fluid flow path and configured to facilitate heat transfer between the first fluid flow path and the second fluid flow path. The desuperheater also includes an inlet of the second conduit configured to receive collected water into the second fluid flow path. The desuperheater also includes a ventilation hole disposed in the second conduit and configured to vent water vapor from the second fluid flow path.

Abstract: A heat exchanger of an HVAC system including an inlet header, an outlet header, and tubes configured to extend between the inlet header and the outlet header. The system also includes a first interchangeable refrigerant distributor segment of the inlet header, where the first interchangeable refrigerant distributor segment includes first orifices configured to fluidly couple with the tubes to facilitate distribution of refrigerant from the inlet header to the tubes in a first configuration. The system also includes a second interchangeable refrigerant distributor segment of the inlet header, where the second interchangeable refrigerant distributor segment includes second orifices configured to fluidly couple with the tubes to facilitate distribution of refrigerant from the inlet header to the tubes in a second configuration. The first orifices include a first characteristic of an orifice cross-sectional internal boundary size or shape, and the second orifices include a second characteristic of the orifice cross-sectional internal boundary size or shape different than the first characteristic.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a cooling system includes an evaporator, which further includes an evaporator tube, a first mechanical wave emitter, and a control system communicatively coupled to the first mechanical wave emitter. The cooling system is configured to circulate refrigerant through the evaporator tube to facilitate heat exchange between the refrigerant and fluid surrounding the evaporator tube. The first mechanical wave emitter is configured to output first mechanical waves to the evaporator tube, and the control system is configured to instruct the first mechanical wave emitter to output the first mechanical waves to enhance nucleation of the refrigerant in the evaporator tube.

Abstract: A heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system includes a compressor having a discharge port and a suction port, a first sensor configured to provide feedback corresponding to a first temperature of the working fluid exiting the compressor proximate the discharge port, a second sensor configured to provide feedback corresponding to a second temperature of the working fluid entering the compressor proximate the suction port, and an automation controller storing data indicative of an operational envelope. The operational envelope defines compressor operation coordinates corresponding to a range of suction temperatures and a range of discharge temperatures inside and outside of a target region of the operational envelope, and the automation controller is configured to control a target range of compressor speeds based on a comparison of the target region to an operation coordinate defined by the feedback from the first sensor and the feedback from the second sensor.
