Retrofit device and method to improve humidity control of vapor compression cooling systems

Patent Roth, Robert Paul; Hahn, David C.; Scaringe, Robert P.

A method and device for improving moisture removal capacity of a vapor compression system is disclosed. The vapor compression system is started up with the evaporator blower initially set to a high speed. A relative humidity in a return air stream is measured with the evaporator blower operating at the high speed. If the measured humidity is above the predetermined high relative humidity value, the evaporator blower speed is reduced from the initially set high speed to the lowest possible speed. The device is a control board connected with the blower and uses a predetermined change in measured relative humiditymore » to control the blower motor speed.« less

System and method of active vibration control for an electro-mechanically cooled device

Patent Lavietes, Anthony D [Hayward, CA]; Mauger, Joseph [Livermore, CA]; Anderson, Eric H [Mountain View, CA]

A system and method of active vibration control of an electro-mechanically cooled device is disclosed. A cryogenic cooling system is located within an environment. The cooling system is characterized by a vibration transfer function, which requires vibration transfer function coefficients. A vibration controller generates the vibration transfer function coefficients in response to various triggering events. The environments may differ by mounting apparatus, by proximity to vibration generating devices, or by temperature. The triggering event may be powering on the cooling system, reaching an operating temperature, or a reset action. A counterbalance responds to a drive signal generated by the vibrationmore »« less
