A refrigeration system and method for refrigerating two compartments with evaporators in series

摘要

A refrigeration system (10) for cooling at least two compartments (12,14) comprises a compressor (16), a freezer compartment (12) including a first evaporator (20) and a fan (24) associated therewith and a fresh food compartment (14) including a second evaporator (22), wherein said first and second evaporators are arranged in series. The compressor is a variable capacity compressor and the system comprises a control unit adapted to control the fan associated with the first evaporator in order to keep temperatures in both compartments close to set points independently on changes in environmental or use conditions.
