Title:
CO2 REFRIGERATOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/046332
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A CO2 refrigerator that is safe, permitting simultaneous drawout of high-temperature heat source and low-temperature heat source with a temperature difference therebetween, and that attains stabilization of control thereof, realizing an enhancement of performance coefficient. There is provided a CO2 refrigerator using CO2 (carbon dioxide) as a refrigerant and having a refrigeration cycle such that compression to a supercritical zone is followed by decompression via an expansion valve to a pressure/temperature level of CO2 triple point or below to thereby attain evaporation, which CO2 refrigerator comprises multistage compressors (3,4), intermediate cooler (6) disposed on refrigerant flow channel (1) between condenser (5) and expansion means (7), and second refrigeration cycle (2) branched from refrigerant flow channel (1) between the condenser (5) and the intermediate cooler (6), passing via expansion means (9) through the intermediate cooler (6) and connected to refrigerant flow channel (1) between the multistage compressors (3,4), the second refrigeration cycle (2) constructed so that in the intermediate cooler (6) there is carried out absorption of evaporation latent heat between the same and the refrigerant flow channel (1) to thereby maintain a pressure/temperature level of CO2 triple point (Ptr) or above even on the rear stream side of the expansion means (9).
