    摘要: A cooling system drains oil from low side heat exchangers to vessels and then uses compressed refrigerant to push the oil in the vessels back towards a compressor. Generally, the cooling system operates any number and combination of three different modes of operation: a normal mode, an oil drain mode, and an oil return mode. During the normal mode, a primary refrigerant is cycled to cool one or more secondary refrigerants. As the primary refrigerant is cycled, oil from a compressor may mix with the primary refrigerant and become stuck in a low side heat exchanger. During the oil drain mode, the oil in the low side heat exchanger is allowed to drain into a vessel. During the oil return mode, compressed refrigerant is directed to the vessel to push the oil in the vessel back towards a compressor.

    摘要: An oil return control method of a multi-functional multi-split system with double four-way valves. The multi-functional multi-split system includes an outdoor unit, at least one set of hydraulic modules and at least one set of indoor modules. When the multi-split system is switched from a normal operation mode to an oil return mode, a first four-way valve and a second four-way valve are powered down, and operation modes of each set of indoor modules and each set of hydraulic modules, the on/off state of fans of an indoor heat exchanger and a hydraulic heat exchanger, opening degrees of a first electronic expansion valve of the indoor heat exchanger and a first electronic expansion valve of the hydraulic heat exchanger, and the on/off state of a first electromagnetic valve and a second electromagnetic valve are correspondingly adjusted based on the previous operation modes.

Generally, the cooling system can operate in any number and combination of three different modes of operation: a normal mode, an oil drain mode, and an oil return mode. During the normal mode, a primary refrigerant is cycled to cool one or more secondary refrigerants. As the primary refrigerant is cycled, oil from a compressor may mix with the primary refrigerant and become stuck in a low side heat exchanger. During the oil drain mode, the oil in the low side heat exchanger is allowed to drain into a vessel.

    摘要: A refrigeration cycle apparatus comprises: a compressor; a first heat exchanger; a second heat exchanger; a first decompressing apparatus; an oil separator; a first circulation pathway in which a refrigerant circulates in an order of the compressor, the first heat exchanger, the oil separator, the first decompressing apparatus, and the second heat exchanger; an oil-returned pathway connecting between the oil separator and a suction side of the compressor; a second decompressing apparatus provided in the oil-returned pathway; and a controller configured to control the first decompressing apparatus and the second decompressing apparatus. The controller is configured to set an operation mode to an oil collection mode by adjusting a degree of decompression of the first decompressing apparatus and a degree of decompression of the second decompressing apparatus when the refrigerant and a refrigerating machine oil flowing in the first circulation pathway are separated in the oil separator.

    摘要: A HVAC system refrigeration circuit is configured to balance the oil carryover between multiple compressors using a single refrigeration circuit. Embodiments of the HVAC system allow for the use of one or more inverter compressors and one or more fixed speed compressors. Embodiments of the HVAC system utilize capillary tubes or other flow control methods to balance the oil carryover between multiple compressors.
