Abstract
A refrigeration system includes a compressor, a condenser, a heat transfer component, and a refrigerant loop arranged to allow a flow of a refrigerant fluid. The compressor, the condenser, and the heat transfer component are connected in the refrigerant loop. The system further includes a bypass path extending between an output side of the compressor in the refrigerant loop and an input side of the heat transfer component in the refrigerant loop. A bypass valve is connected in the bypass path. A control circuit is in communication with the bypass valve. The control circuit is configured to open the bypass valve to allow the refrigerant fluid to pass to the heat transfer component thereby increasing the refrigerant fluid provided to the heat transfer component and artificially increasing a load on the refrigeration system. Other examples refrigeration system and examples methods are also disclosed.
