Description

Method and system for detecting whether variable-frequency refrigeration equipment lacks refrigerant
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of refrigeration equipment detection, and particularly relates to a method and a system for detecting whether variable-frequency refrigeration equipment lacks refrigerants.
Background
The refrigeration equipment generally comprises a compressor, a condenser, a throttling device, an evaporator and other parts, wherein the parts are connected and sealed through metal pipes, and the inside of the parts is filled with refrigerant. The compressor is usually mainly in a full-closed mode, and the process from air suction to air discharge of the compressor is realized through motor operation; because the motor is inevitably heated in operation, if the heat cannot be taken away in time or reach balance, the temperature of the motor winding is continuously increased, and finally the requirement of insulation safety temperature is exceeded, so that the motor is invalid.
At present, the internal pressure of the known refrigeration equipment is far greater than the ambient atmospheric pressure, the refrigerant flows through the motor before and after the compressor finishes compression, heat dissipation of the compressor motor is realized through heat exchange, and the temperature of the motor winding, namely the heat dissipation effect, depends on the refrigerant flow and the refrigerant temperature. After the refrigerant flows through the compressor motor, the exhaust pipeline continuously exchanges heat with ambient air through the compressor shell, and the temperature of the high-temperature gas of the refrigerant is also continuously reduced. The refrigerant always has the leakage problem in the pipeline, and the leakage rate of the pipeline is different from that of the connecting joint; and the refrigerant leakage is unavoidable in the installation process, and the refrigerating equipment is affected. When the refrigerant is reduced to a certain extent, the energy efficiency ratio of the refrigeration equipment is reduced, the suction temperature of the compressor is obviously increased, the frequency of the compressed refrigerant compressor is obviously reduced, the power of the motor is not reduced much, and the temperature of the discharged refrigerant is high at the moment. The heat of the motor is taken away by the refrigerant, the refrigerant heat is reduced less, the heat of the motor cannot be well dissipated, the temperature of a motor winding is continuously increased, and therefore the motor is disabled or even burnt; therefore, it is necessary to detect whether the refrigeration equipment lacks refrigerant.
Previously, there are methods for detecting whether an air conditioner refrigerant is absent by using a compressor discharge temperature:
for example, the patent application number is 201610111330.7, and the invention name is: the invention discloses a method and a device for detecting refrigerant leakage of an air conditioner, and the method comprises the following steps: 1. in the operation of the compressor in the refrigeration or dehumidification mode, starting a counting function according to a detection instruction; 2. setting a first expansion valve opening value of a compressor and a first rotating speed value of an indoor fan, and detecting the exhaust temperature of the compressor after the set time; 3. adjusting the opening value of a second expansion valve of the compressor and the second rotating speed value of the indoor fan, and detecting the first exhaust temperature of the compressor after a first set time; 4. calculating the temperature difference between the exhaust temperature and the first exhaust temperature, and adding 1 to the count value when the temperature difference is smaller than the set temperature threshold; 5. returning to the second step when the count value does not reach the set count threshold; and when the count value reaches a set count threshold, judging the refrigerant leakage. The invention also discloses a device for detecting the refrigerant leakage of the air conditioner. The method and the device provided by the invention reduce misjudgment of the refrigerant leakage of the air conditioner, improve the accuracy of the refrigerant leakage judgment, and can accurately detect the slow refrigerant leakage condition.
For another example, the patent application number is: CN201610319177.7, the name of which is: the invention provides a refrigerant leakage detection method, a refrigerant leakage detection device and an air conditioner, wherein the refrigerant leakage detection method comprises the following steps: detecting the real-time exhaust temperature of a compressor of an air conditioner; determining the theoretical exhaust temperature of the compressor according to the working condition and the running state of the air conditioner; and determining whether the refrigerant in the air conditioner leaks or not according to the real-time exhaust temperature and the theoretical exhaust temperature. By the technical scheme, whether the refrigerant in the air conditioner leaks or not can be detected, and damage to the air conditioner and potential safety hazards brought to users due to refrigerant leakage are avoided as much as possible.
For another example, the patent application number is: CN200810153272.X, the name of the invention is: the invention discloses a protecting device for preventing the exhaust temperature of an air conditioner compressor from being too high. The beneficial effects of the invention are as follows: when the refrigerant of the system leaks, the exhaust temperature of the compressor is prevented from being too high, and the compressor is prevented from being damaged due to the too high exhaust temperature. Therefore, the compressor protection device can better improve the performance and the service life of the product and improve the competitive power of the product.
In the prior art, although whether the refrigerant leaks or not can be detected, the reliability of the methods is not high, because the exhaust temperature of the compressor is related to a plurality of factors, and the exhaust temperature is simply a relatively important factor, but not all factors, of the lack or the shortage of the refrigerant. The exhaust temperature is not high or low, nor can the refrigerant be consumed or the motor is not necessarily damaged. Particularly, the refrigerant shortage judgment of the variable-frequency refrigeration equipment is very difficult, because the frequency of the compressor of the variable-frequency refrigeration equipment can be continuously adjusted and changed, and the judgment is difficult to be carried out in a fixed mode; moreover, the lack of refrigerant at different frequencies appears differently, and especially when an expansion valve control system for exhaust control is provided, it is more difficult to obtain a certain judgment condition; in addition, the indoor working condition environments of different users in actual use are different, the indoor heat load is continuously changed, the outdoor environment working condition is also continuously changed, if the fan motor is not a direct current motor, the rotating speed is changed along with the voltage of the users, the refrigerating performance is also affected, and the accurate refrigerant shortage judging condition is very difficult to obtain. Even if the exhaust temperature is detected in real time, the operation frequency of the variable frequency compressor is continuously changed, the outdoor environment temperature is continuously changed, and whether refrigerant leakage exists or not is difficult to accurately define; particularly, when the refrigerant is lacking, the actual exhaust temperature is not high, but the motor temperature is very high, so that the exhaust temperature is not high or low, and the refrigerant is not lacking or the motor is not necessarily damaged. If a performance curve of a certain system lack of refrigerant is simulated in a laboratory, a large amount of tests and human resource investment are required, and the conditions are not comprehensive and have misjudgment because of the premise.

Detailed Description
The invention is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The method for detecting whether the variable-frequency refrigeration equipment lacks a refrigerant comprises the following steps:
detecting the change relation of the temperature Tr of a motor winding of a compressor and the change relation of the exhaust temperature Tp of the compressor corresponding to the temperature Tr of the motor winding of the compressor under the conditions of different environmental temperatures and different compressor frequencies; obtaining a change relation of the refrigerant heat transfer temperature difference delta T according to a formula delta T=Tr-Tp;
step two, comparing the value range of delta T with a preset refrigerant heat transfer temperature difference range: if the delta T is within the preset refrigerant heat transfer temperature difference range, judging that the quantity of the refrigerant meets the requirement; if the delta T is not in the preset refrigerant heat transfer temperature difference range, judging that the refrigerant is absent in the refrigeration equipment.
The temperature Tr of the motor winding of the compressor can be detected by a sensor in general, and can be obtained by measuring and calculating the change rate of the working parameters of the motor of the compressor; the change relation of the temperature Tr of the motor winding of the compressor can be a function relation taking the ambient temperature and the compressor frequency as variables, and can also be a corresponding relation table of the temperature Tr of the motor winding of the compressor under each ambient temperature and each compressor frequency; the change relation of the compressor discharge temperature Tp may be a functional relation using the ambient temperature and the compressor frequency as variables, or may be a correspondence relation table of the compressor discharge temperature Tp at each ambient temperature and each compressor frequency. The preset refrigerant heat transfer temperature difference range is obtained by the following formula: qr=gr×cp×Δt, where: qr is the heat dissipation capacity of the refrigerant, gr is the mass flow rate of the refrigerant, and Cp is the specific heat; according to the formula, if the ambient temperature around the compressor is unchanged, the heat dissipation areas of the shell, the copper pipe and the like of the compressor are unchanged, and the heat exchange capacity of the refrigerant through the shell and the copper pipe wall is unchanged under a certain temperature condition, namely, the Qr is unchanged; if the refrigerant is deficient, the suction specific volume of the compressor is reduced, the amount of refrigerant discharged by the compressor is reduced at the same rotation speed, namely Gr is reduced, the Cp value is fixed under the same condition, and the temperature difference delta T of the refrigerant flowing through the motor is increased, so that the preset refrigerant heat transfer temperature difference range can be determined by the formula; generally, when the amount of the refrigerant meets the requirement, the delta T variation range obtained by calculation is set as a preset refrigerant heat transfer temperature difference range. The preset refrigerant heat transfer temperature difference range is preferably 0-50 ℃. The preset refrigerant heat transfer temperature difference range can also be a corresponding relation table, and the corresponding preset refrigerant heat transfer temperature difference range is provided under different environment temperatures and different compressor frequency conditions, and the comparison needs to be performed according to the real-time environment temperature and the real-time compressor frequency and the corresponding preset refrigerant heat transfer temperature difference range.
As a preferable scheme of the invention, the method for detecting whether the variable frequency refrigeration equipment lacks refrigerant further comprises the following steps:
if the judging result of the second step is that the quantity of the refrigerant meets the requirement, the second step is needed to be carried out again;
comparing the value range of Tr with a preset temperature range of a motor winding of the compressor: if Tr is in the preset temperature range of the motor winding of the compressor, judging that the quantity of the refrigerant meets the requirement; and if the Tr is not in the preset temperature range of the motor winding of the compressor, judging that the refrigerant is absent in the refrigeration equipment. When the delta T is in the preset refrigerant heat transfer temperature difference range, the temperature Tr of the motor winding of the compressor is judged again, so that on one hand, the reliability of a detection result can be improved, and on the other hand, the normal operation of the motor of the compressor can be ensured, and the damage of the motor due to the overhigh temperature is avoided. The preset compressor motor winding temperature range is preferably 1-80 ℃.
On the basis of the above, in order to further improve the accuracy of the detection result, the method for detecting whether the variable-frequency refrigeration equipment lacks the refrigerant further comprises the following steps:
if the judging result of the step three is that the quantity of the refrigerant meets the requirement, the step four is needed to be used for re-judging;
comparing the value range of Tp with a preset exhaust temperature range of the compressor: if Tp is in the preset compressor exhaust temperature range, judging that the quantity of the refrigerant meets the requirement; if Tp is not in the preset compressor discharge temperature range, judging that the refrigerant is absent in the refrigeration equipment. The exhaust temperature range of the compressor is preset to be 20-100 ℃.
Specifically, the compressor frequency is determined by the operating frequency of the compressor motor and the opening of the electronic expansion valve of the compressor, and when the operating frequency of the compressor motor is controlled to be 1 HZ-120 HZ and the opening of the electronic expansion valve of the compressor is controlled to be 10 steps-500 steps, the temperature range of the winding of the preset compressor motor is preferably 10 ℃ to 230 ℃ in the third step.
As another preferable scheme of the invention, the method for detecting whether the variable frequency refrigeration equipment lacks refrigerant further comprises the following steps:
the method comprises the steps of obtaining a change rate of a motor operating parameter of a compressor, wherein the motor operating parameter of the compressor is at least one of motor operating magnetic flux and motor operating resistance, and determining a temperature of a motor winding of the compressor according to the obtained motor operating parameter of the compressor. The motor operating magnetic flux and the motor operating resistance of the compressor motor in real time are usually detected first, then the change rate of the motor operating magnetic flux is obtained based on the ratio of the detected motor operating magnetic flux and the initial motor magnetic flux in real time, and the change rate of the motor operating resistance is obtained based on the ratio of the detected motor operating resistance and the initial motor resistance in real time.
On the basis of the above, in order to make the determined temperature of the motor winding of the compressor more approximate to the true value, the method for detecting whether the variable frequency refrigeration equipment lacks refrigerant further comprises the following steps:
acquiring the real-time rotating speed of the operation of the compressor motor;
if the real-time rotating speed of the compressor motor is in a preset first rotating speed range, determining the temperature of a motor winding of the compressor motor in real-time operation based on the corresponding relation between the change rate of the working resistance of the motor and the temperature;
if the real-time rotating speed of the motor is in a preset second rotating speed range, determining the temperature of a motor winding of the compressor, which is real-time, of the motor operation based on the corresponding relation between the change rate of the working magnetic flux of the motor and the temperature;
the maximum value of the first rotational speed range is smaller than the minimum value of the second rotational speed range.
The first rotation speed range is usually the rotation speed of the compressor motor when the corresponding relation between the change rate of the motor working resistance and the temperature is a functional relation, and the second rotation speed range is usually the rotation speed of the compressor motor when the corresponding relation between the change rate of the motor working magnetic flux and the temperature is a functional relation.
According to the change rate of the working parameters of the compressor motor, the angle error of the compressor motor can be determined, and the angle error is subjected to angle compensation.
As a further preferable scheme of the method of the invention, the method for detecting whether the variable frequency refrigeration equipment lacks refrigerant further comprises the following steps:
if the judging result is that the refrigerant is absent in the refrigeration equipment, the fifth step is needed;
setting a baseline value d for judging the shortage of the refrigerant, and setting i% as the percentage of the reduced amount of the refrigerant to the initial refrigerant amount, wherein di represents the baseline value corresponding to the reduced amount of the refrigerant being i% of the initial refrigerant amount; di=f (z, tw, i), di≡f (z), where: z is compressor frequency, tw is ambient temperature;
if the delta T is more than or equal to di, judging that the quantity of the lacking refrigerant in the refrigeration equipment is i% of the initial refrigerant quantity.
Typically, di is 150 ℃ or less. di=f (z, tw, i) is an empirical formula, and corresponding determination is performed according to different refrigeration apparatuses. The base line value d for judging the shortage of the refrigerant can be set, so that the information of the specific quantity of the refrigerant lacking of the refrigeration equipment can be determined in real time, a basis is provided for supplementing the refrigerant, the refrigeration equipment is ensured not to be damaged due to the fact that the temperature of a motor winding exceeds an insulation requirement due to the lack of the refrigerant, and the maximum capacity output can be ensured within a safety range.
As still another preferable scheme of the method of the invention, the method for detecting whether the variable frequency refrigeration equipment lacks refrigerant further comprises the following steps:
acquiring a change rate of a motor operating parameter of the compressor, wherein the motor operating parameter of the compressor is at least one of motor operating magnetic flux and motor operating resistance, and determining a temperature of a motor winding of the compressor according to the acquired motor operating parameter of the compressor;
if the judging result is that the refrigerant is absent in the refrigeration equipment, the fifth step is needed;
setting a baseline value d for judging the shortage of the refrigerant, and setting i% as the percentage of the reduced amount of the refrigerant to the initial refrigerant amount, wherein di represents the baseline value corresponding to the reduced amount of the refrigerant being i% of the initial refrigerant amount; di=f (z, tw, i), di≡f (z), where: z is compressor frequency, tw is ambient temperature;
