摘要： An air conditioning, heating or refrigeration system includes a controller that automatically determines if refrigerant amount is above or below the desired amount within the system. In one example, a sensor measures the temperature difference between sub-cooled liquid and saturated condensing temperature and provides information to the controller. The controller determines a variance between the measured and an expected value. If that variance exceeds a selected threshold, the controller automatically determines that the amount of refrigerant in the system is outside of an acceptable range.

摘要： Multiple refrigerant circuits are operated in parallel, and each has an economizer cycle. One of the two circuits may have a greater capacity than the other. By controlling the two circuits to run in economized, conventional, bypassed, or economizer bypassed operation, the control is able to match demanded capacity. Moreover, by exercising similar technique, the control can provide better humidity control, can limit or maintain head pressure, and can avoid power consumption peaks.

摘要： Refrigerant is circulated through a vapor compression system including a compressor, a condenser, an expansion device, and an evaporator. Cold condensate forms on the evaporator surfaces as the refrigerant accepts heat from an air stream. The cold condensate drips down from the evaporator coil and collects in a condensate pan. In one example, the cold condensate is directed into a condensate heat exchanger to subcool the refrigerant exiting the condenser. In another example, the refrigerant exiting the condenser flows through a refrigerant line located in the condensate pan. In another example, the cold condensate is sprayed on the refrigerant line exiting the condenser or on the subcooling portion of the condenser. By utilizing the condensate for further subcooling of the refrigerant, system capacity and efficiency are enhanced. Various control techniques and condensate flow methods are also disclosed.

摘要： An air conditioning system includes a supplemental storage container that allows for transferring refrigerant into or out of an air conditioning or refrigeration system based upon different operating conditions. In one example, a controller controls the operation of valves that selectively couple the storage container to the high pressure side or the low pressure side of the system. Depending on operating conditions, when it is desirable to increase an amount of refrigerant in the system, refrigerant is transferred from the storage container to the low pressure side of the air conditioning or refrigeration system. Under conditions where the amount of refrigerant in the system is above a desired amount, refrigerant can be transferred from the high side of air conditioning system to the storage container to bring the pressure within the system closer to the desired level.

摘要： A refrigerant system is provided with a variable speed drive for at least one of its fluid-moving devices, wherein the variable speed drive is provided by an automated mechanical drive. In the disclosed embodiment, one of the pulleys for driving the fluid-moving device has a variable diameter to vary the speed at which the fluid-moving device is driven. The pulley may include two plates that are biased in one direction by a spring or permanent magnet force, and in an opposed direction by a hydraulic or electromagnetic force. A control adjusts the amount of hydraulic or electromagnetic force delivered to the plates to achieve a desired speed for the fluid-moving device.

摘要： An actual superheat value in a refrigerant system is compared to an expected superheat level. If the actual superheat valve exceeds a certain predetermined value, this is an indication of refrigerant charge loss or a malfunctioning expansion device. In one example, the superheat valve is determined by comparing a difference between a saturated vapor temperature and an actual operating vapor temperature. The superheat determination can be made either at evaporator exit, economizer heat exchange exit or near the compressor discharge port.

摘要： An inventive method of preventing unpowered reverse rotation in a compressor includes the steps of placing a solenoid valve at a location near compressor discharge. The valve is preferably actuated soon after the power to the motor is cut off, blocking the flow of refrigerant from expanding back toward the compression chambers of the compressor. The compressor is disclosed as a scroll compressor, but may also be a screw compressor. These two types of compressors are susceptible to undesirable unpowered reverse rotation when compressed refrigerant re-expands through the compression elements from the compressor discharge into the compressor suction. By blocking the flow of refrigerant, this unpowered reverse rotation is prevented. A high pressure switch can be positioned directly upstream of the solenoid valve to immediately stop the compressor if the valve malfunctions and blocks the flow of refrigerant during normal compressor operation. This high pressure switch will prevent the continued operation of the compressor with the blocked discharge line by sending a signal to a control to cut the power to the compressor motor. A pressure differential switch can be utilized in a similar manner to avoid undesirably high pressure differentials across the valve. Also, the valve itself may be equipped with the flow bypass that opens when pressure differential across the valve exceeds a safe limit.
摘要翻译： 防止压缩机中无动力反向旋转的创新方法包括将电磁阀放置在压缩机排放附近的位置的步骤。 优选地，在电动机的动力被切断之后，阀被很快地启动，阻止制冷剂的流动朝向压缩机的压缩室向后扩展。 压缩机被公开为涡旋式压缩机，但是也可以是螺杆式压缩机。 当压缩的制冷剂通过压缩元件从压缩机排放物再膨胀进入压缩机抽吸时，这两种类型的压缩机容易受到不需要的无动力反向旋转。 通过阻止制冷剂的流动，防止了这种无动力的反向旋转。 高压开关可以直接位于电磁阀的上游，以在阀门故障时阻止压缩机，并在正常的压缩机运行期间阻止制冷剂的流动。 该高压开关将通过向控制器发送信号来切断对压缩机电动机的电力来防止具有堵塞排放管路的压缩机的继续操作。 可以以类似的方式使用压力差开关，以避免跨过阀门的不期望的高压差。 此外，阀门本身可以配备有当跨越阀门的压力差超过安全极限时打开的流量旁路。

摘要： An expansion device for the heat pump applications consists of a flow resistance device that has a different resistance to refrigerant flow depending on the flow direction through this device. The flow resistance device has no moving parts so that it avoids the damage, wear and contamination problems of the moveable piston in the prior art. The flow resistance device is a fixed obstruction about which the fluid must flow when traveling through the expansion device.

摘要： An air conditioning or refrigeration system includes an attached refrigerant receptacle associated with the system. During shipment or storage, the pressure within the system may exceed a selected threshold for the low pressure side. Under such circumstances, a pressure relief device automatically allows refrigerant to flow from the system into the attached receptacle, which brings the pressure within the system back to an acceptable level for the low pressure side. Various optional shutoff devices are disclosed that can be incorporated into the design to simplify receptacle removal or recycling.

摘要： An air conditioning or refrigeration system includes an expansion device that has a plurality of operating positions. When the expansion device is in a fully open position, the expansion device provides an indication to a system controller regarding that position. The controller responsively determines if the fully open position of the expansion device is caused by an undesirably low amount of refrigerant charge in the system. In one example, the controller rules out other possible reasons for the expansion device being in the fully open position. In one example, the controller automatically shuts down appropriate portions of the system to avoid any component damage that may result from having too low refrigerant amount in the system.
