Patent DE-19956965-A1 (DE)
Inventor: HESSE ULLRICH
IPC: B60H1/32
Filed: 1999-11-26
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating a refrigeration system, in particular an air-conditioning system for motor vehicles, according to which a pressure tube compressor (12) is provided as the compressor. This prevents pulsing in the intake line and the pressurised gas line. The pressure tube compressor (12) achieves an excellent performance even at a minimal mass flow and a high pressure differential and is preferably driven by an electromotor (30). The invention also relates to a refrigeration system equipped with a corresponding pressure tube compressor (12).
