Publication number: 20240118048Abstract: Preventing freezing in a heat exchanger can include passing first and second cooling fluids through the heat exchanger, monitoring a temperature and/or pressure of the second cooling fluid entering the heat exchanger, heating the second cooling fluid entering the heat exchanger by opening a valve when the monitored temperature and/or monitored pressure is below a trigger temperature and/or trigger pressure, and closing the valve when a condition is met. The first cooling fluid can have a first freezing temperature and the second cooling fluid can have a second, lower freezing temperature. Opening the valve can cause the second cooling fluid, in gaseous phase, to mix with the second cooling fluid, in liquid phase, upstream of the heat exchanger.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 5, 2023Publication date: April 11, 2024Inventors: Kiel Stephens, Galen Gerig, Steven A. Borror, Matthew Raven, Daniel J. Schutte, Roger Noll, Murphy Davidson

Patent number: 9772126Abstract: A cooling system for transferring heat from a heat load to an environment has a volatile working fluid. The cooling system includes first and second cooling cycles that are thermally connected to the first cooling cycle. The first cooling cycle is not a vapor compression cycle and includes a pump, an air-to-fluid heat exchanger, and a fluid-to-fluid heat exchanger. The second cooling cycle can include a chilled water system for transferring heat from the fluid-to-fluid heat exchanger to the environment. Alternatively, the second cooling cycle can include a vapor compression system for transferring heat from the fluid-to-fluid heat exchanger to the environment.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2016Date of Patent: September 26, 2017Assignee: Liebert CorporationInventors: Steven A. Borror, Franklin E. DiPaolo, Thomas E. Harvey, Steven M. Madara, Reasey J. Mam, Stephen C. Sillato
