ABSTRACT:
A system and method for managing energy in large multistage refrigeration systems and the like having a hot gas defrosting system by continuously monitoring operating parameters and controlling to optimize the refrigeration system compressor pressures and defrosting cycles. A multiplicity of remote sensors is disposed at the appropriate points in the refrigeration system to produce analog electrical signals representative of the evaporator air temperature, evaporator refrigerant temperature, and similar temperatures, and pressures such as the head pressure, booster suction pressure, intermediate suction pressure, and the like. A signal processor is provided to receive signals from the sensors, to condition the analog signals, convert to digital signals and to feed a digital computer which has a memory for storing system design pressure and temperature parameters and refrigerant characteristics. The digital computer calculates the instantaneous system operating parameters from the digital signals, compares these parameters to the design parameters, and operates control relays to load and unload compressors to maintain optimum system pressures, to energize and deenergize fans and pumps in accordance with the system requirements, and to energize defrost cycles only wnen necessary.
