A vapor compression cooling system includes a centrifugal compressor(s) for compressing a primary fluid in a cycle including at least two compressions, and a control module for controlling the centrifugal compressor dependent upon at least a condition of a secondary fluid. The module controls a power of the centrifugal compressor by adjusting a speed of the motor driving the compressor and/or an opening of guide vanes associated with at least one impeller. The module may also control a pressure drop of a primary fluid moving through at least one expansion device. The at least two compressions may be made in parallel or in series. A related method includes compressing a primary fluid in a first and a second compression cycle and adjusting a parameter of the compressor dependent upon a calculated desired power of the compressor.
