First, between very first time point and the second time point, outdoor environment temperature is detected every predetermined time interval the 3rd checkout gear 100, the very first time span of point is 6:00 ~ 9:00 in morning, the span of the second time point is 11:00 ~ 12:00 in morning, and predetermined time interval is 5 ~ 60 minutes.First checkout gear 80 detects the water temperature in water tank 10 simultaneously, second detection device 90 detects the temperature of heat transferring medium, and the water temperature in the water tank 10 that detects of the temperature of the heat transferring medium detected by second detection device 90 and the first checkout gear 80 compares to obtain difference △ T, and difference △ T and the first temperature value △ T1 and the second temperature value △ T2 is compared, now, before the second time point, when the first checkout gear 80 detects that water temperature in water tank 10 is lower than design temperature Ts, during with time difference value △ T >=△ T1, control the first water pump 402 and the second water pump 602 runs to make the water in the first circulation loop 50 and the heat transferring medium heat exchange in heat exchange module 40 in the second circulation loop 70, thus the water in water tank 10 is heated.As difference △ T < △ T2, then stop heating the water in water tank 10.
Then, after reaching the second time point, if when the first checkout gear 80 detects that water temperature in water tank 10 is lower than design temperature Ts, then be averaging to obtain mean value M to the outdoor environment temperature collected, and mean value M and first environment set temperature value Ta1 and second environment set temperature value Ta2 compared select being adopt separately solar energy heating mode or heat the water in water tank 10 together with heat pump mode after the second time point.
As M < Ta1, if difference △ T >=△ is T1, then control the first water pump 402 and the second water pump 602 runs to make the water in the first circulation loop 50 and the heat transferring medium heat exchange in heat exchange module 40 in the second circulation loop 70, the heat exchange agent simultaneously controlled in heat pump main frame 30 is carried out heat exchange by coil pipe 20 and the water in water tank 10, thus is heated the water in water tank 10 until the water temperature in water tank 10 reaches design temperature Ts.If difference △ T < △ is T2, then close the first water pump 402 and the second water pump 602, now only by making the heat exchange agent in heat pump main frame 30 carry out heat exchange by coil pipe 20 and the water in water tank 10, to heat the water in water tank 10, until the water temperature in water tank 10 reaches design temperature Ts.
As Ta1≤M < Ta2, if difference △ T >=△ T1 before the 3rd time point, then control the first water pump 402 and the second water pump 602 and run to make the heat exchange thus the water in water tank 10 is heated in heat exchange module 40 of the heat transferring medium in the water in the first circulation loop 50 and the second circulation loop 70, if difference △ T < △ T2 before the 3rd time point, then control the first water pump 402 and the second water pump 602 out of service with stop the water in water tank 10 is heated.After the 3rd time point, if the first checkout gear 80 detects water temperature in water tank 10 lower than design temperature Ts, then control heat pump main frame 30 and run that the water in water tank 10 is heated, if now remain difference △ T >=△ T1, then the first water pump 402 and the second water pump 602 continue to run to make the heat exchange thus heat the water in water tank 10 in heat exchange module 40 of the heat transferring medium in the water in the first circulation loop 50 and the second circulation loop 70, namely heat pump and solar energy heating two kinds of mode of heatings are adopted to heat the water in water tank 10, if after the 3rd time point, water temperature in water tank 10 is lower than design temperature Ts but difference △ T < △ T2, then a control heat pump main frame 30 runs to heat the water in water tank 10.
As M >=Ta2, if difference △ T >=△ T1 before the 4th time point, then control the first water pump 402 and the second water pump 602 and run to make the heat exchange thus the water in water tank 10 is heated in heat exchange module 40 of the heat transferring medium in the water in the first circulation loop 50 and the second circulation loop 70, if difference △ T < △ T2 before the 4th time point, then control the first water pump 402 and the second water pump 602 out of service with stop the water in water tank 10 is heated.After the 4th time point, if the first checkout gear 80 detects water temperature in water tank 10 lower than design temperature Ts, then control heat pump main frame 30 and run that the water in water tank 10 is heated, if now remain difference △ T >=△ T1, then the first water pump 402 and the second water pump 602 continue to run to make the heat exchange thus heat the water in water tank 10 in heat exchange module 40 of the heat transferring medium in the water in the first circulation loop 50 and the second circulation loop 70, namely heat pump and solar energy heating two kinds of mode of heatings are adopted to heat the water in water tank 10, if after the 4th time point, water temperature in water tank 10 is lower than design temperature Ts but difference △ T < △ T2, then a control heat pump main frame 30 runs to heat the water in water tank 10.Wherein, after the 4th time point is positioned at the 3rd time point.
