20 Claims. (Cl. 62-115) The present invention relates to a refrigeration system and more particularly to a compression system using a liquefiable fluid which removes heat from another medium used directly in a cooling system.
In accordance with the present invention, a hermetically sealed compressor is provided to compress a liquefiable fluid, for example, a hydrocarbon, sulfur dioxide, or Freon. The high pressure gas or vapor is discharged therefrom into a condenser having a plurality of tubes therein. A cooling fluid is passed through the tubes in heat exchange relationship with the compressed gas flowing around the outside of the tubes to remove heat therefrom and thus condense or liquefy the gas. The liquefied gas is thereafter passed from the condenser through expansion means wherein its pressure is greatly reduced and causes a portion of the liquid to evaporate. The liquid-vapor mixture is then passed into an evaporator provided with :a plurality of tubes therein. The vapor flows to a compressor, and the liquid flows around the tubes through which a heated fluid is passed. Heat is abstracted from the fluid in the tubes and causes boiling of the refrigerant fluid on the outside of the tubes. The cooled fluid inside the tubes is thereafter passed to the apparatus (not shown) requiring cooling and is again returned in a heated condition to the evaporator for subsequent cooling. The gas formed by the boiling refrigerant fluid is passed through conduit means, along with the gas formed by the flashing of the high pressure fluid, back to the compressor and the cycle is repeated.
The present invention provides a compact compression refrigeration system wherein the condenser and evaporator are disposed in one vessel or container therein providing a compact unit for an indirect expansion refrigeration system which reduces the space requirements for the apparatus and cost of manufacture thereof.
The present invention further provides a compact refrigeration system for cooling water used as the cooling medium in a central air conditioning system.
The present invention also provides a compression refrigeration system having a condenser and evaporator combined in a single unit to provide a package refrigeration system which may be assembled at the point of manufacture and shipped to the point of use without requiring extensive field assemblage or erection.

Referring to the embodiment of the invention shown in Figures 1 to 5 of the drawings, the reference numeral 10 designates a refrigeration apparatus comprising a condenser evaporator unit 11 and a compressor unit 12. The condenser evaporator unit is formed by a substantially cylindrical shell or casing 13 in which is disposed a condenser 14 in the upper portion thereof and an evaporator 15 in the lower portion thereof.
Condenser 14 comprises a plurality of tubes 16 disposed within a substantially cylindrical casing 17 joined to the opposite end walls of shell 13 in a fluid-tight relationship. The opposite ends of tubes 16 are disposed in a fluid-tight relationship in tube sheets and communicate with water boxes 18 and 19 positioned adjacent the opposite ends of shell 13. Water box 19 is provided with a partition 20 therein to form inlet and outlet chambers 21 and 22 having inlet and outlet connections 23 and 24 respectively in communication therewith for passing cooling water through the tubes in heat exchange relationship with refrigerant fluid passed around the outside of the tubes to condense or liquefy said fluid. A semi-circular shaped baffle 25 (Fig. 3) having its upper and lower edges in contact with casing 17 extends longitudinally of the condenser a short distance to form a passageway 26 adjacent the inlet opening 27 of the condenser for uniformly distributing the refrigerant fluid passing into the condenser around the tubes therein.
Evaporator 15 comprises a plurality of tubes 29 forming a laterally extending tube bundle in the lower portion of shell 13. Tube bundle 29 is disposed over an outlet opening 30 in the bottom of casing 13 and is in spaced relationship with condenser 14. The opposite ends of tubes 29 are disposed in tube sheets and communicate with water boxes 32 and 33 provided adjacent the opposite ends of shell 13. Box 33 is provided with a vertical partition 34 (Fig. 2) dividing the box into inlet and outlet chambers having inlet and outlet connections 35 and 36 respectively in communication therewith for passing heated water through the evaporator tubes in heat exchange relationship with refrigerant fluid which is reevaporated to remove the latent heat therefrom to cool the water.
The compressor unit 12 comprises a hermetically sealed cylindrical drum 12, in which is disposed a compressor and motor, not shown, for compressing the liquefiable refrigerant used in the system.
Compressed refrigerant gas is passed to the condenser compressor unit at one end and in communication with 3 inlet opening 27 at the opposite end thereof. The refrigerant gas, after being liquefied in the condenser is passed therefrom through .conduit 38 connected at one end to the bottom of the condenser and at the other end to an expansion valve 39. i t I Expansion valve 39 comprisesa substantially vertical casing 40 disposed in shell 13 adjacent condenser 14. A removable cover plate 39a provides access to the valve. Valve 39 is provided with a floatchamber 41 in the upper portion thereof in communication with conduit 38 and a discharge chamber 42 in the lower portion thereof in communication with a plurality of spray nozzles 43.
through U-shaped pipe connection 43a. A float valve 44 disposed in chamber 41 operatesas an expansionvalve to permit the condensed refrigerant to expand and a portion of it to vaporize as it passes through valve opening 45 into discharge chamber 42.
A vapor discharge conduit 47 in communication with evaporator outlet opening 30 at one end thereofand in communication with the suction side of the compressor a unit 12 permits the passage of re-evaporated refrigerant fluid from evaporator to the compressor, not shown. A control valve 48 is disposed in conduit 47 for controlling the flow of vapor to the compressor.
In operation, cooling water is passed through condenser 14 through inlet connection 23 therein from a source not shown and is discharged therefrom through outlet 24. Heated water is passed through evaporator 15 through inlet connection 35 therein from a central air conditioning or refrigeration system, not shown, and is discharged therefrom through outlet connection 36 and returned to said refrigeration system. The compressor, not shown, in drum 12 is then placed in operation to compress the refrigerant fluid and discharges high pressure refrigerant gas through conduit 37 into condenser 14. The refrigerant gas passes through inlet opening 27 and impinges against baflle therein, thereafter flowing around the opposite ends of the battle and passing uniformly around condenser tubes 16 in heat exchange relationship with the cooling water flowing inside the tubes. The cooling water extracts heat from the refrigerant gas and causes it to liquefy or condense. Thereafter, the liquefied refrigerant is discharged from the condenser through conduit 38 and flows into float chamber 41 of expansion valve 39. Float valve 44 controls the flow of refrigerant through valve opening 45 into discharge chamber 42 and throttles the pressure of the liquid refrigerant from the higb pressure in the condenser and float chamber 41 to the low pressure in discharge chamber 42, pipe connection 43a, nozzles 43, and the evaporator 15. In passing through valve opening 45, the volume of the refrigerant liquid increases .or expands and a portion of the liquid is converted or reevaporated into a gas. The liquid-gas mixture thereafter flows through pipe connection 43a and is distributed through nozzles 43 around the outside of evaporator tubes 29 and is vaporized. The heated water flowing inside tubes 29 passes in heat exchange relationship with the vaporized mixture and the mixture extracts the latent heat of vaporization from the water thereby cooling the water. The cooled water is then discharged from the evaporator through outlet connection 36 to the refrigeration system, not shown.
The re-evaporated refrigerant gas thereafter flows from the evaporator through outlet opening and conduit 47 to the suction side of the compressor unit. Thereafter,- the compression, condensation, and throttling steps of the cycle are again repeated. Thus, the present invention provides a compact refrigeration system wherein the condenser and evaporator incorporated therein are disposed within the same casing thereby reducing the space requirements for the system and decreasing the cost of the manufacture. In addition, the present compact refrigeration apparatus permits the unit to be assembled at the place of manufacture so that it may be shipped to the point of use without requiring extensive assembly in the .fields.
The embodiment of the invention shown in Figures 6 and 7 substantially the same as that in Figures 1 to 5 except that the condenser 50 is located in the lower portion of the condenser evaporator unit with the lower portion of condenser 50 projecting below or outwardly of shell 13. Refrigerant conduit 51 in communication with the discharge side of the compressor unit is connected to the portion of condenser 50 projecting outwardly of shell 13. A small vent 51a in the upper portion of the float chamber 41 permits the escape of gas into the low pressure side so that the pressure will be intermediate between that of the condenser and evaporator. Also, the evaporator 52 in this embodiment is disposed in the upper portion of casing 13 and is provided with a curved baffle 53 below the evaporator tube bundle extending from one side of casing 13 to a point in spaced relationship with the other side thereof. A vertically inclined battle 54 is fixed to the end of baffle 53 to provide a compartment 55 in the tube bundle for the liquid-gas refrigerant mixture.
