METHOD FOR REGULATING REFRIGERATION CAPACITY OF REFRIGERATION SYSTEM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a refrigeration capacity regulating method of a refrigerating system employing a closed expander cycle applicable easily even to a transportation vessel having severe spatial restrictions by preventing condensates from being carried to a heat exchanger in order to realize uniform heat exchange of a heat exchanger in the downstream of an expander without requiring any bulky apparatus. SOLUTION: A gas-liquid separating section 18 is provided on the downstream side of an expander 15 and condensates being carried by refrigerant gas through superheating are separated from the refrigerant gas. The separated condensates are stored in the gas-liquid separating section and used as the buffer for refrigerant thus regulating the refrigeration capacity.
