Assignee: JOHNSON CONTROLS TECHNOLOGY COMPANY
Field: Thermal processes and apparatus (Mechanical engineering)
Classification: CPC F | IPC F

Claim 6:
7. A tangible, non-transitory, computer-readable medium comprising instructions, wherein the instructions, when executed by processing circuitry, are configured to cause the processing circuitry to:
position a reversing valve of a heat pump system in a first configuration to direct flow of refrigerant from the reversing valve toward a first three-way valve of the heat pump system and position the first three-way valve in a first position to direct flow of the refrigerant from the first three-way valve to an outdoor heat exchanger of the heat pump system in a cooling mode of the heat pump system;
position the reversing valve in the first configuration to direct flow of the refrigerant from the reversing valve toward the first three-way valve and position the first three-way valve in a second position to direct flow of the refrigerant from the first three-way valve to a reheat heat exchanger of the heat pump system in a reheat mode of the heat pump system;
position the reversing valve in a second configuration to direct flow of the refrigerant from the reversing valve toward an indoor heat exchanger of the heat pump system in a heating mode of the heat pump system;
position a second three-way valve of the heat pump system in a third position in the heating mode and in the cooling mode of the heat pump system to enable flow of the refrigerant between the indoor heat exchanger and the outdoor heat exchanger; and
position the second three-way valve in a fourth position in the reheat mode of the heat pump system to block flow of the refrigerant between the indoor heat exchanger and the outdoor heat exchanger.
