Description
[technical field]
The present invention relates generally to refrigerant vapor compression system, and more specifically, relate to striding the refrigerant charge management in the refrigerant vapor compression system of critical cycle operation.
[background technology]
Refrigerant vapor compression system is known prior art, and it is generally used for regulating the air that will supply to the climate controlling comfort zone in dwelling house, office building, hospital, school, restaurant or other facility.Refrigerant vapor compression system also is used in the air that refrigeration supplies to other perishable/frozen product memory block in showcase, vending machine, refrigerating chamber, refrigerator or the commercial undertaking usually.
Refrigerant vapor compression system also is used in transport refrigeration system usually; be used for the air that refrigeration supplies to the temperature control goods space of truck, trailer, container etc., thereby by truck, railway (rail), ship transportation or the perishable/reefer cargo of intermodal transport ground transportation.Since widely the running load condition and range and widely the outdoor environmental conditions scope (under this outdoor environmental conditions, refrigerant vapor compression system must move, in order to the product in the goods space is remained on the temperature of expectation), so the refrigerant vapor compression system of uniting use with transport refrigeration system generally can suffer more strict service condition.The preferred temperature that goods need to be controlled at this can also change on a large scale according to the character of preserving goods.Refrigerant vapor compression system must not only have the temperature that enough volumes and refrigerant charge are come the product of the fast reducing goods space of packing at ambient temperature, must effectively operation under lower extra refrigerant charge load when during transportation keeping stable product temperature.In addition, transport refrigeration agent steam compression system can suffer vibrations and the mobile impact that static refrigerant vapor compression system can not run into.Like this, store the impact that extra refrigerant liquid will be subjected to rock between moving period at the suction line that is positioned at compressor suction inlet upstream with conventional refrigerant collecting tank, may cause like this refrigerant liquid to be brought into compressor by suction line via the suction inlet on it undesirably.
Traditionally, most of these refrigerant vapor compression systems move under subcritical refrigerant pressure, and typically comprise compressor, condenser, evaporimeter and the expansion gear (normally expansion valve) that is arranged on vaporizer upstream and condenser downstream with respect to cold-producing medium stream.These basic refrigerant system assemblies are interconnected on by refrigerant lines in the refrigerant loop of closing, and arrange according to known refrigerant vapor compression cycle, and move under the subcritical pressure boiler scope of particular refrigerant in use.The refrigerant vapor compression system that moves in subcritical range generally is filled with fluorocarbon refrigerants, such as, but not limited to, fluorochlorohydrocarbon (HCFC) is such as R22, and be filled with more at large HFC compound (HFC), such as R134a, R410A, R404A and R407C.

Incorporating economizer into refrigerant loop, also is usual practice for increasing the capacity of refrigerant vapor compression system.For example, in some system, cold-producing medium-refrigerant heat exchanger is merged in refrigerant loop as economizer.The first's cold-producing medium that leaves condenser passes the first path of heat exchanger and the second portion cold-producing medium heat exchange of passing the heat exchanger alternate path.The second portion cold-producing medium typically consists of the part cold-producing medium that leaves condenser, this part cold-producing medium turns to by expansion gear, and wherein this part cold-producing medium passes steam or the vapor/liquid mixture cold-producing medium that is inflated into lower pressure and lower temperature before the alternate path of economizer cold-producing medium-refrigerant heat exchanger at this second portion cold-producing medium.Behind the alternate path that passes across economizer heat exchanger, the second portion cold-producing medium changes level from the intermediate pressure that this is introduced into compression process.Pass across before entering evaporimeter before the main expansion gear of system, the cold-producing medium in the main refrigerant circuit passes the first path of cold-producing medium-cold-producing medium economizer heat exchanger and therefore is further cooled.The 6th, 058, No. 729 United States Patent (USP) has disclosed a kind of for cold-producing medium-refrigerant heat exchanger being incorporated into refrigerant loop as the subcritical refrigerant vapor compression systems of the transport refrigeration unit of economizer.The 6th, 694, No. 750 United States Patent (USP)s have disclosed a kind of subcritical refrigeration system that is included in the first cold-producing medium of arranging continuously between condenser in the refrigerant loop and the evaporimeter-refrigerant heat exchanger economizer and second refrigerant-refrigerant heat exchanger economizer.
In some system, the flash tank economizer is merged in the refrigerant loop between condenser and the evaporimeter.In this case, the cold-producing medium that leaves condenser expanded by the expansion gear such as thermostatic expansion valve or electric expansion valve before entering flash tank, and the cold-producing medium after wherein expanding is separated into liquid refrigerant component and vapor refrigerant component.The steam component of cold-producing medium is introduced the intermediate pressure stage of compression procedure thus from flash tank.The liquid component of cold-producing medium was guided through the main expansion valve of system from flash tank before entering evaporimeter.The 5th, 174, No. 123 United States Patent (USP)s have disclosed a kind ofly incorporates the flash tank economizer in the refrigerant loop between condenser and the evaporimeter subcritical steam compressibility.The 6th, 385, No. 980 United States Patent (USP) has disclosed a kind of transcritical refrigerant steam compression system of the flash tank economizer being incorporated into the refrigerant loop between gas cooler and the evaporimeter.
