Patent ID: 10634391

Abstract:
A vapor compression system that includes an evaporator system that changes a temperature of a fluid flowing across the evaporator system using a refrigerant. The evaporator system includes a first evaporator section that cools the fluid flowing across the first evaporator section using the refrigerant. The evaporator system also includes a second evaporator section that is capable of alternatively cooling and heating the fluid flowing across the second evaporator section with the refrigerant. A valve system controls a flow of the refrigerant through the second evaporator section between a first flow path of the evaporator system and a second flow path of the evaporator system. The refrigerant heats the fluid flowing across the second evaporator section as the refrigerant flows through the first flow path and the refrigerant cools the fluid flowing across the second evaporator section as the refrigerant flows through the second flow path.
