Performance Optimizations of the Transcritical CO<sub>2</sub> Two-Stage Compression Refrigeration System and Influences of the Auxiliary Gas Cooler

To optimize the performance of the transcritical CO<sub>2</sub> two-stage compression refrigeration system, the energy analysis and the exergy analysis are conducted. It is found that higher COP, lower compression power, and less exergy destruction can be achieved when the auxiliary gas...
