s205, controlling whether the heat conducting valve of the transit heat exchanger is closed or not according to the heat exchange coefficient k, the target temperature of the water heater, the temperature of the water heater when the heat conducting valve of the transit heat exchanger is opened for the first time period and the temperature of the solar heat collector when the heat conducting valve of the transit heat exchanger is opened for the first time period.
In S201, initial temperatures of the solar collector and the water heater are detected by providing a temperature sensor. Optionally, a temperature sensor for detecting the temperature of the water heater is provided on the outer sidewall of the water tank of the water heater or on the inner tank of the water heater. The actual temperature of the water heater is determined by detecting the temperature of the outer side wall of the water tank of the water heater, or the actual temperature of the water heater is determined by detecting the temperature of the inner container of the water heater. In S202, a heat conduction valve of the relay heat exchanger is used to control the circulation of the heat conduction medium between the solar heat collector and the water heater, and when the flow rate of the heat conduction medium is constant, the opening of the heat conduction valve is increased, and the flow rate of the heat conduction medium is increased; the opening of the heat-conducting valve is reduced, and the flow of the heat-conducting medium is reduced.

Optionally, the first time period is 5min to 7 min. The temperature of the solar thermal collector and the temperature of the water heater are detected when the heat conduction valve is opened for the first time period, and the initial temperature of the solar thermal collector and the initial temperature of the water heater are combined, so that the heat exchange condition between the solar thermal collector and the water heater can be reflected.

Exemplary, T1=34℃,T0=30℃,t0=70℃,t162 ℃, then k ═ T2-T1)/(t1-t2) 0.5 for (34-30)/(70-62). In S205, it may be determined whether the remaining heat of the solar thermal collector can satisfy the requirement that the water heater is heated to the target temperature according to the heat exchange coefficient k, the target temperature of the water heater, and the temperature of the water heater and the solar thermal collector when the heat conducting valve of the relay heat exchanger is opened for the first time. In this way, the supply of heat from the solar collector can be stopped when the heat from the solar collector is insufficient to heat the water heater to the target temperature.

Thus, the heat of the solar heat collector is favorably transferred to the water heater.
In an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 3, the controlling the opening degree of the heat conducting valve of the transit heat exchanger according to the heat exchange coefficient k, the target temperature of the water heater, the temperature of the water heater at the first time, and the temperature of the solar heat collector at the first time comprises:
s301, calculating the predicted temperature t' ═ t of the solar heat collector when the water heater reaches the target temperature1-[(T’-T1)/k]Where T' is the target temperature of the water heater, T1For the temperature t of the water heater when the heat conducting valve of the transfer heat exchanger is opened for the first time1The temperature of the solar heat collector is at the first time when a heat conducting valve of the transfer heat exchanger is opened, and k is a heat exchange coefficient;
s302, comparing the T 'with the T', and when the T 'is larger than or equal to the T', keeping the opening degree of a heat conducting valve of the transfer heat exchanger; and when T 'is less than T', controlling a heat conducting valve of the intermediate heat exchanger to be closed.
In the embodiment, the predicted temperature of the solar heat collector when the water heater reaches the target temperature can be obtained through calculation, when T 'is greater than or equal to T', the solar heat collector is indicated to have sufficient energy to heat the water heater to the target temperature, the opening degree of a heat conduction valve of the transfer heat exchanger can be maintained, and the water heater is continuously heated; and when T 'is less than T', the residual heat of the solar heat collector is not enough to heat the water heater to the target temperature, and the heat conducting valve of the transfer heat exchanger is controlled to be closed to stop heating the water heater. Exemplary, t1=150℃,T’=55℃,T1=32℃,k=0.6,t’=t1-[(T’-T1)/k]=150-[(55-32)/0.6]112 ℃, T '> T', indicating that the solar heat collector has enough heat to heat the water heater to the target temperature, and the opening degree of the heat conducting valve of the intermediate heat exchanger can be maintained. Exemplary, t1=80℃,T’=55℃,T1=32℃,k=0.6,t’=t1-[(T’-T1)/k]=80-[(55-32)/0.6]And (4) if the temperature T 'is less than T' and is 42 ℃, indicating that the heat of the solar heat collector is insufficient, closing a heat conducting valve of the intermediate transfer heat exchanger. Therefore, under the condition that the heat of the solar heat collector is not enough to be heated to the target temperature by the hot water supply device, the heat supply of the solar heat collector is stopped, and the waste of heat is avoided. If the target temperature of the water heater is adjusted to be low, executing the steps S301 and S302 again, and when T 'is larger than or equal to T', taking the temperature of the solar heat collector and the water heater at the first time as the initial temperature, determining the opening degree of a heat conducting valve of the transit heat exchanger according to S202, and keeping the opening degree of the heat conducting valve of the transit heat exchanger; and when T 'is less than T', controlling a heat conducting valve of the intermediate heat exchanger to be closed.
