Degassing device for degassing a liquid flow, including: a housing for receiving liquid from the liquid flow therein, the housing having one or more ports for connecting to the liquid flow; a valve arranged for allowing gas to escape from the housing; and a heater arranged at least partly inside the housing for raising a temperature of the liquid received in the housing with respect to a further temperature of the liquid flow.

A separator for removing contamination from a fluid of a heat pump includes a housing having a hollow interior, a separation component mounted within the hollow interior, and at least one turbulence-generating element positioned within the hollow interior adjacent the separation component.

A refrigeration system includes a rotary pressure exchanger fluidly coupled to a low pressure branch and a high pressure branch. The rotary pressure exchanger is configured to receive the refrigerant at high pressure from the high pressure branch, to receive the refrigerant at low pressure from the low pressure branch, and to exchange pressure between the refrigerant at high pressure and the refrigerant at low pressure, and wherein a first exiting stream from the rotary pressure exchanger includes the refrigerant at high pressure in the supercritical state or the subcritical state and a second exiting stream from the rotary pressure exchanger includes the refrigerant at low pressure in the liquid state or the two-phase mixture of liquid and vapor.

A refrigeration circuit includes: a gas-liquid separator into which a gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant flowed out from a condenser flows, the gas-liquid separator being configured to separate the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant into a vapor phase refrigerant and a liquid phase refrigerant; and a plate heat exchanger including a first heat exchanging part and a second heat exchanging part, the first heat exchanging part being a part where the vapor phase refrigerant flowed out from the gas-liquid separator and the liquid phase refrigerant flowed out from the gas-liquid separator exchange heat, the second heat exchanging part being a part where the vapor phase refrigerant flowed out from the first heat exchanging part and a returning refrigerant flowed out from an evaporator exchange heat.

A gas recovery system for a compressor, said gas recovery system being equipped with: a distillation column that brings a supply gas in a liquid state into contact with a mixed gas, thereby cooling and liquefying a process gas in the mixed gas, and heating and gasifying the liquid supply gas; a process gas recovery line that is connected to the lower part of the distillation column and recovers the liquid process gas discharged from the distillation column; and a supply gas recovery line that is connected to the upper part of the distillation column and recovers the gaseous supply gas discharged from the distillation column.

A separator for removing contamination from a fluid of a heat pump includes a housing having a hollow interior, a header plate arranged within the hollow interior and having at least one mounting hole, and a separation module mounted within the hollow interior. The separation module includes a connector for forming an interface with the at least one mounting hole. A sealant is located at the interface between the connector and the mounting hole.

A non-condensable gas purge system is configured to be used in a chiller system that uses a low pressure refrigerant in a loop refrigeration circuit. The non-condensable gas purge system includes a purge tank and a purge heat exchanger coil arranged inside the purge tank. The purge tank has a tank inlet for receiving the low pressure refrigerant from a condenser of the refrigeration circuit, a tank outlet for returning the low pressure refrigerant to an evaporator of the refrigeration circuit, and a purge outlet for purging non-condensable gas from the purge tank to the ambient atmosphere. The purge heat exchanger coil is fluidly connected to the loop refrigeration circuit such that the low pressure refrigerant contained in the loop of the chiller system can pass through the purge heat exchanger coil. Refrigerant in the purge tank is condensed by the heat exchanger coil while non-condensable gases remain gaseous.

The present disclosure relates to a purge system for a vapor compression system including an emission canister. The emission canister includes a load cell disposed in an interior of the emission canister, a base supported by the load cell, and an adsorbent material disposed on the base. The adsorbent material is configured to adsorb a refrigerant flowing through the emission canister, and the load cell is configured to monitor a weight of the adsorbent material and the refrigerant within the emission canister.
