Hybrid refrigeration system for a mobile unit and method of operation |
摘要 |
A method for operating a refrigeration system for a mobile unit includes steps of: 1) providing a refrigeration unit having a compressor, an evaporator, and at least one fan operable to move air towards the evaporator, a generator dedicated to the refrigeration unit, and a battery; 2) determining at least one environmental parameter in one or both of the mobile unit and the refrigeration unit; and 3) selectively operating the refrigeration unit in one of a plurality of modes based on the environmental parameter. The plurality of modes includes a first mode wherein at least the fan is powered by the battery, and a second mode wherein the compressor and the fan are powered by the generator. |

1. A method for operating a refrigeration system for a mobile unit, the method comprising:
providing a refrigeration unit, a generator, a battery and at least one sensor, the refrigeration unit including a compressor, an evaporator and a fan operable to move air towards the evaporator, and the generator being dedicated to the refrigeration unit; determining an environmental parameter in one or both of the mobile unit and the refrigeration unit using the at least one sensor; selecting a mode in which to operate the refrigeration unit based on the environmental parameter, wherein the selected mode is one of a plurality of modes in which the refrigeration unit is capable of operating, and the plurality of modes include:
a first mode where at least the fan is powered by the battery; anda second mode where the compressor and the fan are powered by the generator; and operating the refrigeration unit in the selected mode. |
