  • Patent number: 11668496
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system. The HVAC system includes an air handling unit configured to transfer heat between a refrigerant and an airflow, a first heat exchanger configured to receive the refrigerant from the air handling unit and transfer heat between the refrigerant and a first working fluid, a cooling bank including a vessel and a coil disposed in the vessel, wherein the coil is configured receive the first working fluid from the first heat exchanger and configured to transfer heat between the working fluid and a second working fluid within the vessel, and a second heat exchanger configured to receive the second working fluid and to transfer heat between the second working fluid and the airflow, wherein the second heat exchanger is disposed upstream of the air handling unit with respect to a flow path of the airflow.

  • Patent number: 10921015
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system including a heating coil and an actuation system configured to couple to the heating coil. The actuation system is configured to rotatably position the heating coil in a first orientation crosswise to an airflow path in a heating mode, and rotatably position the heating coil in a second orientation substantially removed from the airflow path in a cooling mode.
