Abstract:

Liquid pressure amplification and liquid injection are two patented methods of decreasing compressor energy consumption and increasing condenser capacity in an existing reciprocating vapor compression refrigeration system. Although this 6-year-old technology has been installed on thousands of existing systems, it continues to generate controversy in engineering and utility circles.
