    Abstract: Cooling systems, such as refrigeration or air conditioning systems, utilize a two-phase refrigerant and capture heat in one environment (e.g., the interior of a building) and move the heat into a second environment (e.g., the exterior of a building). Such systems are often energy intensive even when the second environment is relatively cold. Systems, and preferably a single system, is provided to selectively provide mechanical cooling, free cooling, and optional heating utilizing the same refrigerant and substantially the same components.
