Field: Thermal processes and apparatus (Mechanical engineering)
Classification: CPC F | IPC F

Claim 13:
14. A thermal management method comprises:
cooling, by a cooling system, a refrigerant fluid within a receiver of an open-circuit refrigeration system;
transporting the refrigerant fluid through the open-circuit refrigeration system from a receiver outlet of the receiver to an evaporator in contact with a heat load and having an evaporator inlet and an evaporator outlet, while extracting heat from a heat load in thermal conductive contact with the evaporator; and
controlling a temperature of the heat load based on exhausting the refrigerant fluid though a control device coupled to the evaporator outlet of the evaporator, the receiver, the control device, and an exhaust line coupled to form an open-circuit refrigerant fluid flow path.
