  • Systems and Methods for Operating a Refrigeration System
    Publication number: 20170059240
    Abstract: Methods and systems for operating a refrigeration system for refrigerating a product are provided. A first temperature of the refrigerant downstream of a condenser and upstream of an evaporator may be obtained. A first pressure of the refrigerant downstream of the condenser and upstream of the evaporator may be obtained. A second pressure of the refrigerant downstream of the evaporator and upstream of a compressor and/or a temperature of the product being refrigerated may be obtained. A first valve, disposed between the condenser and the evaporator, may be controlled based on the first temperature and the first pressure to maintain a pre-determined cooling set-point for the refrigeration system. A second valve of the refrigeration system, coupled to the compressor, may be controlled based on the second pressure or the temperature of the product to optimize a capacity of a compressor of the refrigeration system.
    Type: Application
