Abstract:
A cascade heat recovery system connects an evaporator from a heating unit to a recovery condenser of the cooling unit, where the recovery condenser is different from a cooling condenser of the cooling unit, and/or connects the evaporator of the heating unit to the cooling loop of the cooling unit, for example in fluid communication with the evaporator of the cooling unit. Both configurations allow the heating unit to be isolated or decoupled from the heat rejection circuit on which the cooling condenser runs. The use of either or both configurations, depending on the operating conditions, can use heat rejected by the evaporator of the cooling unit to be available to the heating unit, so as to provide lift to the heating unit and improve its operating efficiency.

Claim (Index 1):
A heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system, comprising:\n a cooling unit including a cooling condenser in fluid communication with an evaporator, and a recovery condenser in fluid communication with the evaporator, the cooling unit is configured to deliver cooling to a cooling load by way of a heat exchange relationship of the evaporator of the cooling unit with one or more of the cooling condenser and the recovery condenser, the recovery condenser configured as a heat source; a heating unit including an evaporator in fluid communication with a heating condenser, the heating unit configured to deliver heating to a heating load by way of a heat exchange relationship of the evaporator of the heating unit with the heating condenser, the cooling unit and the heating unit are configured to have a heat recovery circuit configured to transfer a source heat from the cooling unit to the heating unit, the heating unit receiving the source heat from the cooling unit by way of the evaporator of the heating unit having fluid communication with the cooling unit, and the HVAC system is configured to operate in one or more of a cooling mode, a heating mode, and a heat recovery cycle.
