THERMAL ENERGY STORAGE AND COOLING SYSTEM WITH SECONDARY REFRIGERANT ISOLATION

摘要

Disclosed are a method and device for a refrigerant-based thermal storage system wherein a condensing unit (102) and an ice-tank heat exchanger (160) can be isolated through a second heat exchanger (162). The disclosed embodiments provide a refrigerant-based ice storage system with increased reliability, lower cost components, and reduced power consumption compared to a single phase system such as a glycol system.
