Abstract

A thermodynamic system containing a working fluid is disclosed. The thermodynamic system comprises at least a working fluid collection vessel () adapted to contain a liquid phase and a gaseous phase of the working fluid in thermodynamic equilibrium. A chilling arrangement () is functionally coupled to the fluid collection vessel () and adapted to remove heat from the working fluid collected in the working fluid collection vessel () and thereby reduce pressure in said thermodynamic system. Also disclosed are methods for depressurizing a thermodynamic system containing a working fluid in liquid/gas equilibrium.
