Refrigeration systems with two-stage compression are used
for the generation of particularly low temperatures. At very low temperatures
large pressure differences are required between the evaporator and condenser.
In a compressor the volumetric efficiency drops significantly at high pressure
ratios.
Therefore, two compressors are connected in series, with
each compressor only having a relatively low pressure ratio. This makes a more
favourable dimensioning of the low pressure stage compressor possible. Due to
the large specific volume it requires a larger capacity at lower drive power.
In addition, intercooling between the low pressure
compressor (LP) and the high pressure compressor (HP) reduces the outlet
temperature of the HP compressor to harmless values and improves the efficiency
of the compression.

diagram of the software
