Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed toward systems and method for cooling a refrigerant flow of a refrigerant circuit with a cool water flow from a cool water storage to generate a warm water flow and to cool the refrigerant flow by a subcooling temperature difference, flowing the warm water flow to the cool water storage, and thermally isolating the warm water flow from the cool water flow in the cool water storage.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A system, comprising: a refrigerant circuit configured to flow a refrigerant, comprising: a compressor in the refrigerant circuit; a condenser in the refrigerant circuit; an expansion device configured to expand the refrigerant in the refrigerant circuit; a subcooling heat exchanger disposed between the condenser and the expansion device in the refrigerant circuit; and a cooling heat exchanger in the refrigerant circuit, wherein the refrigeran…
