Abstract
Related components of a refrigeration system are cooled by refrigerant drawn from the system condenser by a pump which serves to raise the pressure of the condensate and move the condensate through the system related component. The condensate is reduced to a vapor as it absorbs parasitic heat losses in the components and is returned to the condenser where the parasitic heat losses are carried out of the system by the condenser coolant so that the system performance is not adversely effected.
