Patent number: 11859881Abstract: Refrigeration systems and control methods therefor are described. The refrigeration systems include a main circuit to connect, through a pipeline, a multi-stage compressor, a condenser, an economizer, a main throttling element, and an evaporator. An air supply branch is configured to connect to the air outlet of the economizer and the intermediate stage air inlet of the multi-stage compressor. A liquid injection branch is configured to connect to the intermediate stage air inlet of the multi-stage compressor from a section having a high-pressure liquid-phase refrigerant in the main circuit. Through the design of the liquid injection branch, the liquid-phase refrigerant can be introduced when vibration or noise of the unit exceeds a limit. The liquid-phase refrigerant, in the form of droplets, can effectively absorb the sound wave energy in the compressor pipeline to reduce an overall discharge pulsation of the compressor and reduce the noise and vibration of the condenser.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2020Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: CARRIER CORPORATIONInventors: Kai Deng, Vishnu Sishtla
