Abstract:
In a refrigeration system comprising a refrigerant circuit, a heat exchanger, an expansion element which, in the active state, cools the entire mass flow of the refrigerant by expansion and thereby produces a main mass flow consisting of liquid refrigerant and an auxiliary mass flow consisting of gaseous refrigerant which enter an intermediate pressure accumulator, at least one normal refrigerating stage which expands a normal refrigerating mass flow in at least one normal refrigerating expansion unit to a low pressure and thereby makes refrigerating capacity available for normal refrigerating purposes, a refrigerant compressor unit which compresses the normal refrigerating mass flow from low pressure to high pressure, and a parallel compressor which, in a parallel compression mode of operation of the refrigerant circuit, sucks in refrigerant from the intermediate pressure accumulator and compresses it to high pressure, it is proposed that, in order to increase the efficiency, the power of the parallel compressor be controlled by a control system, that the control system determine at least one reference variable representing a load state of the refrigerant circuit, that the control system determine a set intermediate pressure value on the basis of the at least one reference variable at least in a parallel compression mode of operation, and that the control system regulate the intermediate pressure in accordance with the set intermediate pressure value at least in the parallel compression mode of operation.

Claim (Index 51):
A method in accordance with  claim 50 , wherein the parallel compressor switches off in the flashgas/bypass mode of operation.
