Patent ID: 11002452

Abstract:
A heat pump system includes a compressor, usage side heat exchanger, heat source side heat exchanger, expansion mechanism, main refrigerant flow control device switchable between cooling and heating modes, gas reheat heat exchanger connected in the refrigerant circuit, a fan disposed to direct an airflow across the usage side heat exchanger and the gas reheat heat exchanger into a target space, and a secondary refrigerant flow control device switchable between first and second modes. Refrigerant flows from the discharge line to the main refrigerant flow control device in the heating mode and the cooling mode in the first mode. Refrigerant flows from the discharge line to the gas reheat heat exchanger in a gas reheat mode and then flows to the main refrigerant flow control device in the second mode. A flow of the heat transfer medium to the heat source side heat exchanger is adjustable.
