Abstract
A refrigeration system includes a refrigerant circuit performing a vapor compression supercritical refrigeration cycle. The system includes a compression mechanism, a heat source heat exchanger, an expander, and a utilization heat exchanger. The expander includes, for two-stage compression, a high pressure side and a low pressure side throttle mechanism, both variable in the amount of throttling. A controller is configured to derive a target value, providing a maximum COP, for the pressure of high pressure refrigerant in the refrigerant circuit based on the temperature of refrigerant at the outlet of either the heat source side heat exchanger or the utilization side heat exchanger, whichever becomes a heat dissipation side heat exchanger functioning as a heat dissipation unit and on the temperature of a medium exchanging heat with refrigerant in the heat dissipation side heat exchanger, at the inlet of the heat dissipation side heat exchanger.
