  • Patent number: 11644243
    Abstract: A reversible flow heat exchange system includes a heat exchanger system that includes a canister configured to receive a first fluid from a machine and a heat exchanger disposed within the canister. The reversible flow heat exchange system also includes a cooling system coupled to the heat exchanger and configured to circulate a second fluid between the heat exchanger system and the cooling system and a reversing valve coupled to the heat exchanger and configured to selectively direct a flow of the first fluid in a first direction through the canister and in a second direction through the canister that is opposite the first direction.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11408680
    Abstract: A microchannel evaporator includes a plurality of microchannels. Each of the plurality of microchannels includes a first end and a second end. A first end-tank is coupled to each first end of the plurality of microchannels and a second end-tank is coupled to each second end of the plurality of microchannels. An inlet is coupled to the first end-tank for receiving a fluid into the microchannel evaporator and an outlet is coupled to the second end-tank for expelling the fluid from the microchannel evaporator. Each microchannel of the plurality of microchannels is substantially U-shaped.

  • Patent number: 8820111
    Abstract: One aspect provides a cooling system, and method of manufacture thereof, that has a housing having at least one condenser attached thereto and an auxiliary condenser attached to the housing. A refrigeration loop fluidly couples at least one condenser and the auxiliary condenser. A compressor forms a portion of the refrigeration loop, wherein the auxiliary condenser is interposed the compressor and at least one condenser within the refrigeration loop that forms a refrigerant path from the compressor to the auxiliary condenser and from the auxiliary condenser to at least one condenser. A fan located within the housing is positioned to force air through the auxiliary condenser and out of the housing.
