Problems solved by technology

However, the volume occupied by the gas-phase refrigerant is relatively large. As mentioned above, it is difficult to equally distribute the liquid-phase refrigerant to multiple refrigerant flow paths, which is the root cause of the above problems.

Abstract

A refrigeration device in which a refrigerant supplied to an evaporator is pre-cooled and supplied as a single phase liquid refrigerant with the degree of dryness of the refrigerant substantially zero. This increases the amount of heat exchange in the evaporator, enhancing cooling performance and enabling downsizing of the evaporator. The refrigeration device (1) has a refrigeration cycle (8) formed by sequentially connecting a compressor (2), a condenser (3), an economizer (4), an expansion valve (5), and the evaporator (7). The compressor (2) compresses the refrigerant. The condenser (3) condenses high-pressure gas refrigerant. The economizer (4) evaporates a part of the condensed liquid refrigerant and cools the liquid refrigerant by latent heat of the evaporation, and has a circuit for inletting the evaporated intermediate-pressure refrigerant into an intermediate inlet opening of the compressor. The expansion valve (5) adiabatically expands the liquid refrigerant. The evaporator (7) evaporates the adiabatically expanded refrigerant. Between the economizer (4) and the evaporator (7) is provided a refrigerant pre-cooler (15) for pre-cooling the refrigerant to be supplied to the evaporator (7).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a refrigeration device, and more particularly to a refrigeration device suitable for use in a turbo refrigeration device using a plate heat exchanger in an evaporator. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, a turbo refrigerator is used as a large-capacity heat source device, and a shell-and-tube heat exchanger suitable for large heat exchange is used in its condenser and evaporator. But recently, with the rapid progress of manufacturing technology, it is possible to manufacture a relatively small-capacity turbo refrigeration device of less than 100 refrigerated tons. This small capacity turbo chiller uses a plate heat exchanger in addition to a shell and tube heat exchanger. On the other hand, in order to have high-efficiency performance characteristics, a turbo refrigerator also requires a large-scale and high-performance specification for the plate heat exchanger used. [0003] Plate heat exchangers generally...
