  • Refrigerant cooling and lubrication system
    Patent number: 10480834
    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods are disclosed to prime a refrigerant pump by decoupling the condenser from the refrigerant pump and the refrigerant pump line or shielding from a condenser operation prior to startup of the system, so that liquid refrigerant can be appropriately sourced from the condenser and/or the evaporator using flow control device(s) such as a source valve on a source line of the condenser and/or on a source line of the evaporator and the control of such valve(s).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 12, 2016
    Date of Patent: November 19, 2019
    Assignee: TRANE INTERNATIONAL INC.
    Inventors: Daoud A. Jandal, Brian Thomas Sullivan, Reginald Loyd Berry, Dennis Lee Justin, Matthew Aron Witt, Damion Scott Plymesser
  • Refrigerant cooling and lubrication system with refrigerant vapor vent line
    Patent number: 10458686
    Abstract: Generally, apparatuses, systems, and methods are described to vent refrigerant vapor from the refrigerant pump line using a vent line, such as during priming of the pump and/or during a startup of the compressor, directed to a relatively reduced volute casing mass of the refrigerant pump, and/or directed to returning refrigerant to an economizer or chiller component other than the condenser.

  • Refrigerant cooling and lubrication system with refrigerant source access from an evaporator
    Patent number: 10274233
    Abstract: Generally, apparatuses, systems, and methods are described that are directed to accessing liquid refrigerant from an evaporator to source a refrigerant pump and pump line to cool and lubricate such moving parts that may be part of the compressor, for example the compressor motor and the compressor bearings, and/or for cooling drives such as an adjustable or variable frequency drive.
