Abstract

See full text

A cascade refrigeration system using a first refrigerant or a high stage and a second, R-744, refrigerant for low stage refrigeration has a defrost system including a defrost compressor, a defrost inlet heat exchanger and defrost outlet heat exchanger. The defrost inlet heat exchanger receives a defrost portion of second refrigerant and adds an additional defrost heat load thereto from first refrigerant, thus evaporating defrost portion. Defrost portion is then compressed into high pressure defrost vapor portion in the defrost compressor. The defrost vapor portion is then circulated through a selected evaporator, where a defrost heat, augmented by additional defrost heat load, defrosts selected evaporator, defrost vapor being at least partially condensed into defrost condensed portion which is liquefied in defrost outlet heat exchanger.
