Abstract

A method of operating a refrigeration system is disclosed. The method comprises cooling a refrigerant using a first high side heat exchanger, and reducing the pressure of a first portion of the refrigerant received from the first high side heat exchanger using a first expansion valve in a first low side heat exchanger unit. The method further comprises cooling a first space with the refrigerant received from the first expansion valve using a first low side heat exchanger in the first low side heat exchanger unit, and reducing the pressure of a second portion of the refrigerant received from the high side heat exchange using an expander of an expansion-compression unit. The method further comprises compressing the refrigerant received from the first low side heat exchanger using a compressor of the expansion-compression unit.
