Integrated vapor cycle and pumped two-phase cooling system with latent thermal storage of refrigerants for transient thermal management

Abstract:

A cooling system uses refrigerants for two-phase cooling and thermal energy storage for a transient heat source. The cooling system includes a flash tank downstream of a heat load to be cooled. A subcooler/super-heater is downstream of the flash tank. A compressor is downstream of the subcooler/super-heater. A condenser is downstream of the compressor and upstream of the flash tank.
