VAPOR COMPRESSION SYSTEM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vapor compression system that enhances heat transfer efficiency between refrigerants.

SOLUTION: An evaporator 168 in a vapor compression system includes a shell 76, a first tube bundle 78; a hood 86; a distributor 80; a first supply line 142; a second supply line 144; a valve 122 positioned in the second supply line 144; and a sensor 150. The distributor 80 is positioned above the first tube bundle 78. The hood 88 covers the first tube bundle 78. The first supply line 142 is connected to the distributor 80 and an end of the second supply line 144 is positioned near the hood 88. The sensor 150 is configured and positioned to sense a level of a liquid refrigerant 82 in the shell. The valve 122 regulates a flow in the second supply line in response to the level of the liquid refrigerant 82 from the sensor 150.
