Abstract:
A damping arrangement for damping the oscillations of valves which are controlled by pressure fluid and the control pressure conduits of which contain a throttle. A characteristic is that initial oscillations can be rapidly stabilized independently of the operating temperature of the pressure fluid. This is accomplished by the throttle having a throttle gap of which the height varies oppositely to the temperature of the pressure fluid so as to compensate fully or partially for changes in the hydraulic resistance that are occasioned by the temperature. The throttle gap is mostly traversed by laminar flow and consequently there is a high hydraulic throttling resistance even at low speeds of flow. The throttle is therefore also adapted effectively to damp small oscillations of the valve element so that the initial oscillations are rapidly stabilized.

Abstract:
A method for monitoring a refrigerant charge in a vapour compression system (1) is disclosed, the vapour compression system (1) comprising a compressor unit (2), a heat rejecting heat exchanger (3), a high pressure expansion device (4), a receiver (5), at least one expansion device (9, 10), and at least one evaporator (11, 12) arranged in a refrigerant path. A change in net mass flow into or out of the receiver (5) and/or a change in net enthalpy flow into or out of the receiver (5) is detected, and a pressure inside the receiver (5) is monitored as a function of time, following the detected change in net mass flow and/or in net enthalpy flow. A time constant being representative for dynamics of the receiver (5) is derived, based on the monitored pressure as a function of time, and information regarding a refrigerant charge in the vapour compression system (1) is derived, based on the derived time constant.
Abstract:
A method for controlling a vapour compression system (1) comprising two or more evaporators (5, 12), each evaporator (5, 12) being arranged in thermal contact with a refrigerated volume, the refrigerated volumes storing goods of various types, and each evaporator (5, 12) receiving refrigerant via an expansion device (6, 13) is disclosed. In response to receipt of a load shedding command originating from a power grid (17), the vapour compression system (1) reduces a compressor capacity of the compressor unit. The refrigerated volumes are divided into at least two prioritized categories of refrigerated volumes, where a first category (18) includes refrigerated volumes storing goods of a temperature critical type, and a second category (19) includes refrigerated volumes storing goods of a temperature non-critical type. Refrigerant supply to the evaporator(s) (5, 12) being in thermal contact with the refrigerated volume(s) of the second category (19) is discontinued, and refrigerant supply to the evaporator(s) (5, 12) being in thermal contact with the refrigerated volume(s) of the first category (18) is continued. Thereby the vapour compression system (1) is capable of providing load shedding services for an extended period of time without compromising temperature critical storage.

The cooling line is configured to be switched between a first mode and a second mode. The first mode is configured to dump refrigerant between the first stage and the second stage, and the second mode is configured to dump refrigerant upstream of the first stage.
Abstract:
A method for creating a maximum capacity variance of an expansion valve (1) is described, the expansion valve (1) comprising a valve housing (2) having a valve seat (4) at an end of a valve seat channel (5) and a valve element (3, 3a, 3b, 3c). It should be possible to show a simple and cost-effective way to provide expansion valves having different maximum flow capacities. To this end, the variance is created by using a valve element (3, 3a, 3b, 3c) having a capacity controlling part (7, 7a, 7b, 7c) and a flow controlling part (6, 6a, 6b, 6c), wherein different capacity controlling parts (7, 7a, 7b, 7c) are used to create the maximum capacity variance.
Abstract:
Electric expansion valve (1) comprising a valve housing (12), a valve seat (2), a valve element (3) cooperating with the valve seat (2), a drive driving the valve element (3) and comprising a rotary motor (4) having an axis (17) of rotation. The valve element (3) is connected to the motor (4) and has a possibility of radial displacement between the rotor (6) and the valve element (3) with respect to the axis (17) of rotation. Such an expansion valve should ensure a long lifetime with low production costs. To this end the valve element (3) is connected to the motor (4) by means of a fixing element (16) which guarantees a defined position of the valve element (3) in axial direction while allowing the radial displacement between the axis (17) of rotation and the valve element (3).

Such a valve should have a small motor and a tube which can be produced with low costs. To this end the motor section (19) and the bearing section(17) comprise different diameters.
