  • Patent number: 11946673
    Abstract: A heat exchange system and a method for reclaiming corrosion inhibitor in a heat exchange system are provided by the present disclosure. The heat exchange system includes a compressor (1), a condenser (2) and an evaporator (3) connected in sequence, and the heat exchange system further includes a system for reclaiming corrosion inhibitor which includes an ejector (6) including a high-pressure fluid inlet (61) connected to an outlet (11) of the compressor, a suction fluid inlet (62) connected to the heat exchange system to extract a liquid-state refrigerant in the heat exchange system, and a fluid outlet (63) leading to bearings of the compressor, wherein a pressurizing device (5) is provided between the outlet of the compressor and the high-pressure fluid inlet of the ejector. The heat exchange system according to the embodiments of the present disclosure can provide sufficient corrosion inhibitor to the bearings of the compressor under various working conditions.

  • Patent number: 11725851
    Abstract: A multi-stage refrigeration system (100) includes: a refrigeration loop (110), which includes a gas suction port of a multi-stage compressor (111), a condenser (112), a first throttling element (113), an evaporator (114) and an exhaust port of the multi-stage compressor which are sequentially connected through pipelines; an economizer branch (120), which includes an economizer (121), a second throttling element (122) and a first control valve (123), the economizer having an economizer liquid inlet connected to the condenser via the first throttling element, an economizer liquid outlet connected to the evaporator via the second throttling element, and an economizer exhaust port connected to an intermediate stage of the multi-stage compressor via a control valve; and a bypass branch (130), which is joined to the evaporator from the downstream of the second throttling element and connected to the condenser via the first throttling element, and on which a second control valve (131) is arranged.
