ABSTRACT:
A vaned rotor is eccentrically located within a casing defining a cylindrical chamber. Adjacent vanes of the rotor coact with the casing to define cells. Saturated or slightly subcooled liquid refrigerant is supplied to each passing cell of the rotating rotor. The refrigerant in the cells is subjected to centrifugal forces creating a pressure gradient causing flashing of gaseous refrigerant and the cooling of the liquid refrigerant. The cell rotates into registration with ports permitting the flow of cooled liquid refrigerant to the evaporator and gaseous refrigerant to the evaporator or to the compressor as suction gas or economizer gas.
