Zusammenfassung:A cooling system for a compressor includes a coolant supply line, a coolant return line, a temperature sensor connected to the coolant return line to detect at least one of a temperature of the coolant return line and a temperature of coolant within the coolant return line, and a controller. The coolant supply line includes a coolant control valve, and is connectable to a housing of the compressor to deliver coolant to at least one of a plurality of coolant flow channels defined therein. The coolant return line is connectable to the compressor housing to receive coolant from the coolant flow channels and return coolant to a low-pressure side of the compressor. The controller is configured to control the coolant control valve based on the temperature detected by the temperature sensor to control the supply of coolant through the coolant supply line.
