Refrigerant vapor compression system with flash tank economizer
A refrigerant vapor compression system includes a flash tank disposed in series refrigerant flow relationship in the refrigerant circuit intermediate a refrigerant heat rejection heat exchanger and a refrigerant heat absorption heat exchanger. A primary expansion valve is interdisposed in the refrigerant circuit upstream of the refrigerant heat absorption heat exchanger and a secondary expansion valve is interdisposed in the refrigerant circuit upstream of the flash tank. A refrigerant vapor line is provided to direct refrigerant vapor from the flash tank to an intermediate pressure stage of the compression process. A refrigerant-to-refrigerant heat exchanger operates to transfer heat from refrigerant flowing through the primary refrigerant circuit to refrigerant flowing through the refrigerant vapor line.
