Description

Air source heat pump system
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of household appliances, in particular to an air source heat pump system.
Background
The refrigerant quantity balance of the refrigeration system is a key problem, and the quantity of the refrigerant quantity is directly related to the refrigeration and heating capacity and the energy efficiency of the system, and the stable and reliable running state of the system. Especially for an air source heat pump unit, a finned tube heat exchanger is usually used on an air side, a plate heat exchanger is usually used on a water side, and the difference of the inner volumes of the two heat exchangers is huge, so that the required refrigerant amount has obvious difference during the cooling and heating operation.
For a refrigeration system using refrigerant with low flammability such as R32, the system refrigerant charge generally has a minimum room area requirement, and the smaller the system refrigerant charge, the easier it is to meet the room area requirement for on-site installation. Therefore, for the R32 refrigerant air-source heat pump product, the system design considers that no accumulator or as small an accumulator as possible is used, thereby reducing the refrigerant charge in the system. In the system, most of the refrigerant in the system is stored in a condenser in the system operation because the temperature of the condensation side is high and the pressure is high during refrigeration. For an air source heat pump system, a finned tube heat exchanger with a large inner volume is generally selected for the air side, and a plate heat exchanger with a small inner volume is generally selected for the water side. A compromise system refrigerant quantity filling scheme is adopted for filling the refrigerant into the system at present, and the filled refrigerant quantity is between the inner volume of the plate heat exchanger and the inner volume of the fin type heat exchanger. In general, when a heat pump system is operated in a cooling mode, most of refrigerant accumulates in an air-side heat exchanger serving as a condenser, and the air-side heat exchanger has a larger internal volume, so that the amount of refrigerant required for the cooling mode cannot be satisfied. In the heating operation, the refrigerant is accumulated in the water side heat exchanger as a condenser, and the water side heat exchanger has a small inner volume, so that the amount of the refrigerant required for the heating operation is smaller than that for the cooling operation, and the refrigerant circulating in the system may be excessive. Therefore, the cooling and heating operation systems are not operated in the optimal state, and a series of reliability problems, such as oil return problems, low-pressure or high-pressure alarm problems, and the like, are caused.
For a system without a liquid storage device or a gas separator, because the plate heat exchanger is positioned on a high-pressure side and the finned tube heat exchanger is on a low-pressure side, when the compressor is stopped, because the difference of the inner volumes of the two heat exchangers is overlarge, a large amount of refrigerants are stored in the finned tube heat exchanger, when the compressor is started again, the refrigerant enters the compressor from the low-pressure side, and then more compressor oil is taken away, so that the oil-empty phenomenon of the compressor is particularly serious, and the reliability of the long-term operation of the compressor is influenced.
Chinese patent No. CN201852347U, granted as shown in fig. 1, proposes a water source multi-split air conditioning system with a liquid storage device, in which a liquid storage device 4 is disposed, but the liquid storage device 4 does not have the function of storing extra redundant refrigerant when the heating is stopped, and there is no control method for improving reliability.

Example one
< basic operation principle of air conditioner >
The air source heat pump system performs refrigerant circulation of the heat pump system by using the compressor, the condenser, the electronic expansion valve and the evaporator. The refrigerant cycle includes a series of processes involving compression, condensation, expansion, and evaporation, and supplies refrigerant to the conditioned side cycle.
The compressor compresses a refrigerant gas in a low-temperature and low-pressure state and discharges the compressed refrigerant gas. The discharged refrigerant gas flows into the condenser. The condenser condenses the compressed refrigerant into a liquid phase, and heat is released to the surrounding environment through the condensation process.
The electronic expansion valve expands the high-temperature and high-pressure liquid-phase refrigerant condensed in the condenser into a low-pressure liquid-phase refrigerant. The evaporator evaporates the refrigerant expanded in the expansion valve and returns the refrigerant gas in a low-temperature and low-pressure state to the compressor.
In the air source heat pump system in this embodiment, heat in the air is absorbed to heat water (heating cycle), the heated water can be directly supplied to a user, or the circulating water is used to heat indoor air, and the water can be cooled by exchanging heat between latent heat of evaporation of a refrigerant and the water, so that the indoor air is cooled by the circulating water.
An outdoor unit of the air source heat pump system includes a compressor and an air-side heat exchanger, an indoor unit of the air source heat pump system includes a water-side heat exchanger, and an electronic expansion valve may be installed in the indoor unit or the outdoor unit.
The water side heat exchanger and the air side heat exchanger serve as a condenser or an evaporator. When the water-side heat exchanger is used as a condenser, the air-source heat pump system is used as a heater in a heating mode, and when the water-side heat exchanger is used as an evaporator, the air-source heat pump system is used as a cooler in a cooling mode.
The air source heat pump system of the present embodiment is particularly directed to a heat pump system without an accumulator.
As shown in fig. 2, an air-source heat pump system in the present embodiment includes a compressor 11, a four-way valve 12, a water-side heat exchanger 13 and an air-side heat exchanger 14, wherein the water-side heat exchanger 13 is connected to the air-side heat exchanger 14, and an air outlet 110 of the compressor 11, a return air inlet 111 of the compressor 11, the water-side heat exchanger 13 and the air-side heat exchanger 14 are respectively connected to four ports of the four-way valve 12 through connecting pipes.
As shown in fig. 6, in the refrigeration cycle, the refrigerant gas in a low-temperature and low-pressure state is compressed by the compressor 11 in a refrigerant flow direction indicated by a line arrow, and the compressed refrigerant gas is discharged. The discharged refrigerant gas flows into the air-side heat exchanger 14 as a condenser, which condenses the compressed refrigerant into a liquid phase, and heat is released to the surrounding environment through the condensation process.
The refrigerant discharged from the air-side heat exchanger 14 enters the electronic expansion valve 17, and the electronic expansion valve 17 expands the liquid-phase refrigerant in a high-temperature and high-pressure state condensed in the condenser into a low-pressure liquid-phase refrigerant, and then enters the water-side heat exchanger serving as an evaporator. The evaporator evaporates the refrigerant expanded in the expansion valve, absorbs heat in water, and returns refrigerant gas in a low-temperature and low-pressure state to the compressor.
As shown in fig. 5, in the heating cycle, the compressor 11 compresses the refrigerant gas in a low-temperature and low-pressure state as indicated by a dotted arrow, and discharges the compressed refrigerant gas. The discharged refrigerant gas flows into a water side heat exchanger as a condenser, the condenser condenses the compressed refrigerant into a liquid phase, and heat is released into water through the condensation process.
The refrigerant coming out of the water-side heat exchanger enters the electronic expansion valve 17, and the electronic expansion valve 17 expands the liquid-phase refrigerant in a high-temperature and high-pressure state condensed in the condenser into a low-pressure liquid-phase refrigerant, which then enters the air-side heat exchanger serving as an evaporator. The evaporator evaporates the refrigerant expanded in the expansion valve, absorbs heat in the air, and returns the refrigerant gas in a low-temperature and low-pressure state to the compressor.
For refrigeration systems using refrigerants such as R32, the system refrigerant charge typically requires a minimum room area, and a smaller system refrigerant charge will more readily satisfy the on-site room area requirements. Therefore, for this type of air source heat pump product, the system is often designed without using an accumulator to reduce the refrigerant charge in the system. The refrigerant charge is less, also because the pressure differential problem at compressor both ends leads to the refrigerant to flow to the low pressure side from the high pressure side after shutting down, and when starting up again, the refrigerant of low pressure side gets into the compressor, takes away the compressor oil of compressor in a large number, leads to the compressor lack of oil problem.
In order to solve the above problem, in some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2 and 8, the air source heat pump system further includes a check valve 15 connected between the exhaust port 110 of the compressor 11 and the four-way valve 12, and the compressor 11 is in one-way communication with the four-way valve 12.
An electronic expansion valve 17 is provided between the air-side heat exchanger and the water-side heat exchanger.
As shown in fig. 3, the control module is configured to: when the stop signal is received, the electronic expansion valve 17 is closed, and the compressor 11 is controlled to be kept open, and when the stop condition is judged to be satisfied, the whole machine is closed.
In this embodiment, the electronic expansion valve 17 is closed and the compressor is controlled to be kept open after the shutdown signal is received, because the electronic expansion valve 17 is closed and the compressor is kept open, at this time, the compressor can continuously discharge the refrigerant on the low-pressure side to the high-pressure side, and because the electronic expansion valve 17 is closed, the refrigerant on the high-pressure side cannot flow to the low-pressure side through the connecting pipeline, and when the shutdown condition is met, the compressor is shutdown, because of the existence of the check valve 15, the refrigerant on the high-pressure side cannot flow to the low-pressure side through the compressor, and therefore, the refrigerant can be stopped on the high-pressure side. After the compressor is restarted, because the refrigerant of the low-pressure side is few, a large amount of refrigerants can not enter the compressor in a short time, and then a large amount of compressor oil of the compressor can not be taken away, and the problem of oil shortage of the compressor is avoided. Along with the circulation of the refrigerant, the refrigerant on the high-pressure side flows back to the low-pressure side through the electronic expansion valve 17, and then enters the compressor, so that the dynamic balance of the refrigerant is formed.
After the process is continued for a period of time, the whole machine is closed when the shutdown condition is judged to be met.
For a heat pump system using refrigerant such as R32, because the difference between the internal volumes of the two heat exchangers is large, the amount of refrigerant filled without using a liquid reservoir is small, and at the same time, a new problem is caused, that is, the amount of refrigerant filled cannot meet the problem that both the cooling operation and the heating operation can be operated in an optimal state, therefore, in some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 7, the air source heat pump system further includes an auxiliary liquid storage pipe segment 16 connected between the water-side heat exchanger and the air-side heat exchanger, the auxiliary liquid storage pipe segment 16 is arranged in a vertical direction and has a top port 161 and a bottom port 162, the top port 161 is connected with the air-side heat exchanger, and the bottom port 162 is connected with the water-side heat exchanger.
As shown in fig. 2 and 7, when the heat pump system is operated in heating mode, the refrigerant enters the auxiliary liquid storage pipe section 16 from the bottom port 162 and flows out from the top port 161, and the auxiliary liquid storage pipe section 16 needs to be filled with the supercooled high-pressure refrigerant coming out of the water side heat exchanger and then enters the electronic expansion valve 17. The auxiliary water side heat exchanger can play a role in storing the refrigerant, namely expanding the capacity of the water side heat exchanger, so that more refrigerants can be circulated to the water side serving as a condenser, and further the refrigerant can run in the best state in the heating running mode.
During refrigerating operation, the refrigerant enters the auxiliary liquid storage pipe section 16 from the top port 161 and flows out from the bottom port 162, the state of the refrigerant entering the liquid storage device is a low-pressure two-phase state, and the refrigerant entering the liquid storage device is stored in the liquid storage device in an upward-inlet-downward-outlet mode, so that the amount of the refrigerant stored in the liquid storage device is small, more refrigerants can be circulated to the air side heat exchanger serving as a condenser, and the refrigerant can be operated in an optimal state during a refrigerating operation mode. In addition, in the cooling and heating operation, the density of the high-pressure refrigerant is high, but the high-pressure refrigerant in the cooling mode is in the air side heat exchanger, the high-pressure refrigerant in the heating mode is in the water side heat exchanger, the volume difference between the high-pressure refrigerant in the air side heat exchanger and the high-pressure refrigerant in the heating mode is large, the liquid storage device stores a small amount of refrigerant in the cooling mode, and stores a large amount of refrigerant in the heating mode, so that the cooling and heating refrigerant quantity can be balanced in such a mode.
This scheme especially carries out the refrigerant balance to the heat pump system who does not have the reservoir, and no matter refrigeration mode still heats the mode homoenergetic and obviously promotes the operation effect.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the air-side heat exchanger may be implemented by, but not limited to, a finned tube heat exchanger, and the water-side heat exchanger may be implemented by, but not limited to, a plate heat exchanger.
In some embodiments of the present invention, after the control module receives the shutdown signal, the control module further determines a current operation mode, closes the electronic expansion valve when the current operation mode is the heating mode, controls the compressor to be kept open, and closes the entire machine when it is determined that the shutdown condition is satisfied.
In some embodiments of the invention, the auxiliary reservoir section is located between the electronic expansion valve 17 and the water side heat exchanger. When the shutdown control logic is executed, the check valve prevents the refrigerant from leaking to the low-pressure side from the high-pressure side, the auxiliary liquid storage pipe section can be used for expanding the capacity of the water-side heat exchanger, and more refrigerants are stored in the high-pressure side. When the heating operation is stopped, the electronic expansion valve 17 is closed first, the compressor and the fan continue to operate, the refrigerant is still discharged from the low-pressure side to the high-pressure side, the refrigerant stored in the high-pressure side (the water side heat exchanger and the auxiliary liquid storage pipe section) is increased, and the refrigerant stored in the low-pressure side (the air side heat exchanger) is reduced. When the compressor is normally started next time, the amount of refrigerant entering the compressor is reduced, and the amount of oil carried away is reduced, so that the operation reliability of the compressor at the starting stage is effectively improved.
For a system without a liquid storage device, the online scheme needs to calculate the most appropriate size of an auxiliary liquid storage pipe section and the refrigerant adding amount. On the premise that the pressure drop of the auxiliary liquid storage pipe section is allowed, the corresponding pipe diameter is thicker if the auxiliary liquid storage pipe section is shorter, and the pipe diameter can be thinner if the auxiliary liquid storage pipe section is longer, so that the refrigerant quantity stored in the auxiliary liquid storage pipe section is ensured within the allowable range without influencing the reliability. Meanwhile, the mode can increase the filling-free online piping, and is convenient for field installation.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the method for determining the internal volume of the auxiliary reservoir section comprises:
respectively obtaining total refrigerant quantities mc and mh of all components and tubing in the refrigerating operation and the heating operation under an ideal state;
respectively acquiring densities rho h and rho c of refrigerants in the auxiliary liquid storage pipe section during refrigeration operation and heating operation in an ideal state;
calculating the internal volume V of the auxiliary liquid storage pipe section: v = (mc-mh)/(ρ h- ρ c).
The internal volume V of the auxiliary liquid storage pipe section is selected to be proper in diameter and length, so that the internal volume of the auxiliary liquid storage pipe section is equal to V.
As shown in fig. 9, in some embodiments of the present invention, before obtaining the cooling operation and the heating operation in the ideal state, the method further includes a step of determining a theoretical cycle, and a step of selecting a type of the compressor, the finned tube heat exchanger, the electronic expansion valve 17 and the plate heat exchanger.
There are various ways to obtain the total refrigerant quantities mc and mh of all components and piping during the cooling operation and the heating operation in an ideal state, and the refrigerant quantity can be determined by adopting a simulation calculation mode or an experiment mode.
