Abstract: which comprises the detection of the frost level in the evaporator by means of a calculation method of NTU rate, allowing to define: the most suitable defrosting time, the energization of the drainage resistors and the adaptive management of the evaporator fan combining different operating modes. An ice-free mode which uses only the cooling capacity of the refrigerant, and different modes with ice which benefits from the latent heat stored in the ice to produce energy savings, depending on the level of frost in the evaporator. For calculating the NTU rate, it uses the evaporator as a reference when it is dry at the beginning, and when the cooling system is in operation, it calculates the NTU rate with a variable frequency operating mode depending on the evaporator performance or level of ice and its comparison with the cited reference.

Abstract: A first user equipment (UE) - during a real time text (RTT) communication session with a second UE - may make a control function available to a local user of the first UE, who may invoke the control function to break up his/her RTT content within organized conversation bubbles. In an example process, after displaying first text character(s) - which was input by the local user - within a first conversation bubble designated for the first UE (or the local user thereof), the first UE may detect an invocation of the control function, followed by additional user input requesting to type one or more second text characters. Invocation of the control function prior to the additional user input requesting to type the second text character(s) may cause the first UE to display the second text character(s) within a second conversation bubble designated for the first UE, rather than the first conversation bubble.
