  • Method and system for improving refrigeration system efficiency
    Patent number: 11466911
    Abstract: A method and system for improving energy efficiency of a refrigeration system include system components such as a condenser, one or more expansion valves, an evaporator, one or more compressors, and a system controller electrically coupled to the one or more of the system components, according to one embodiment. The system controller is configured to selectively actuate, directly or indirectly, the one or more expansion valves, the condenser, and/or the one or more compressors, at least partially based on temperatures and/or pressures of the system fluid at various points of the system, to control a temperature of a refrigerated area.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 31, 2020
    Date of Patent: October 11, 2022
    Assignee: DC Engineering, Inc.
    Inventors: Thomas Dean Wolgamot, Timothy Alan Gwyn, William Michael Crist
