Patent 11754320 was granted and assigned to Carrier Corporation on September, 2023 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
Refrigeration systems are described. The systems include a compression device, a heat rejecting heat exchanger, an ejector, and first and second expansion devices with respective heat absorbing heat exchangers. The ejector is arranged to receive refrigerant fluid from the heat rejecting heat exchanger at a high pressure inlet of the ejector. Fluid pathways extend from an outlet of the ejector into a branched flow path to provide flows of refrigerant from the ejector to the first and second expansion devices. The first heat absorbing heat exchanger provides cooling at a first temperature and refrigerant fluid from the outlet of the first heat absorbing heat exchanger is directed to a low pressure inlet of the ejector. The second heat absorbing heat exchanger provides cooling at a second temperature and refrigerant fluid from the outlet of the second heat absorbing heat exchanger is directed to the inlet of the compression device.
