Detailed Description
The following detailed description of specific embodiments of the present disclosure is provided in connection with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating the present disclosure, are given by way of illustration and explanation only, not limitation.
As shown in fig. 1 to 6, the present disclosure provides a heat pump air conditioning system including a compressor 1, an indoor condenser 2, an indoor evaporator 3, and an outdoor heat exchanger 4, an outlet of the compressor 1 communicates with an inlet of the indoor condenser 2, an outlet of the indoor condenser 2 selectively communicates with a first port 4a of the outdoor heat exchanger 4 via a through-flow branch 5 or communicates with a second port 4b of the outdoor heat exchanger 4 via a first throttling branch 6, the first port 4a of the outdoor heat exchanger 4 further communicates with an inlet of the compressor 1 via a first return branch 7 that is selectively turned on or off, the second port 4b of the outdoor heat exchanger 4 further communicates with an inlet of the indoor evaporator 3 via a second throttling branch 8, and an outlet of the indoor evaporator 3 communicates with an inlet of the compressor 1 via a second return branch 9. Wherein, the outdoor heat exchanger 4 is provided with a plurality of heat exchange areas which are sequentially arranged along the direction from the first port 4a to the second port 4b of the outdoor heat exchanger 4, and the flow areas of the plurality of heat exchange areas are gradually reduced from the direction from the first port 4a to the second port 4b of the outdoor heat exchanger 4.
It should be noted that, in the above and the following, the "through branch" refers to a branch that can selectively achieve conduction or cutoff of the refrigerant, "the throttling branch" refers to a branch that can selectively achieve throttling or cutoff of the refrigerant and can adjust the flow rate and pressure of the refrigerant when throttling, "communication" may be direct communication or indirect communication between two devices.
By controlling the communication relationship among the devices, the heat pump air conditioning system disclosed by the invention at least has a cooling mode and a heating mode. In the cooling mode, as shown in fig. 2, the compressor 1, the indoor condenser 2, the through-flow branch 5, the outdoor heat exchanger 4, the second throttling branch 8, the indoor evaporator 3, and the second return branch 9 are sequentially connected in series to form a loop, and at this time, no air passes through the indoor condenser 2 and no air passes through the indoor evaporator 3, that is, although the refrigerant passes through the indoor condenser 2 in the cooling mode, no condensation occurs at the indoor condenser 2. Whether the air passes through the indoor condenser 2 and the indoor evaporator 3 can be controlled by controlling the air door mechanism, and since the air door mechanism is a well-known technology in the field of heat pump air conditioners, the working principle of the air door mechanism is not described in detail in the present disclosure. In a refrigeration mode, a high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant discharged by the compressor 1 enters the outdoor heat exchanger 4 from the first port 4a of the outdoor heat exchanger 4 through the through-flow branch 5, exchanges heat with outdoor air in the outdoor heat exchanger 4, releases heat and condenses, and radiates heat to the air, a medium-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant flows out of the second port 4b of the outdoor heat exchanger 4, the medium-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant is throttled and depressurized by the second throttling branch 8 to become a low-temperature and low-pressure liquid refrigerant, the low-temperature and low-pressure liquid refrigerant is evaporated in the indoor evaporator 3 to absorb indoor heat (such as a passenger compartment of a vehicle) to realize a refrigeration function, and finally the refrigerant flows back to the compressor 1 through the second return branch 9.
In the heating mode, as shown in fig. 3, the compressor 1, the indoor condenser 2, the first throttle branch 6, the outdoor heat exchanger 4, and the first return branch 7 are sequentially connected in series to form one circuit. In this mode, the high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant discharged from the compressor 1 is subjected to heat release condensation in the indoor condenser 2, and releases heat to the indoor space, so as to realize indoor heating, the outlet of the indoor condenser 2 is a medium-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant, the medium-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant is subjected to throttling and pressure reduction by the first throttling branch 6 and then is changed into a low-temperature and low-pressure liquid refrigerant, the low-temperature and low-pressure liquid refrigerant enters the outdoor heat exchanger 4 through the second port 4b of the outdoor heat exchanger 4, and is subjected to heat absorption and evaporation in the outdoor heat exchanger 4, so that the low-temperature and low-pressure gaseous refrigerant flows out of the first port 4a of the outdoor heat exchanger 4.
As shown in fig. 5 and 6, in the cooling mode, the refrigerant flows into the outdoor heat exchanger 4 from the first port 4a of the outdoor heat exchanger 4 and flows out from the second port 4b of the outdoor heat exchanger 4, and in the warming mode, the refrigerant flows into the outdoor heat exchanger 4 from the second port 4b of the outdoor heat exchanger 4 and flows out from the first port 4a of the outdoor heat exchanger 4, and since the flow areas of the plurality of heat transfer areas in the outdoor heat exchanger 4 are gradually decreased in the direction from the first port 4a of the outdoor heat exchanger 4 to the second port 4b thereof, the flow area of the refrigerant entering the outdoor heat exchanger 4 in the cooling mode is gradually decreased in the outdoor heat exchanger 4, and the flow area of the refrigerant entering the outdoor heat exchanger 4 in the warming mode is gradually increased in the outdoor heat exchanger 4.
Thus, according to the above technical solution, since the refrigerant is subjected to heat release condensation in the outdoor heat exchanger 4 in the refrigeration mode and changes from a gaseous state to a liquid state, the pressure of the refrigerant entering the outdoor heat exchanger 4 is high, the specific volume is large, and the flow rate is high, and the flow area of the heat exchange region near the first port 4a of the outdoor heat exchanger 4 is large, so that more refrigerants are subjected to heat exchange through the heat exchange region near the first port 4a of the outdoor heat exchanger 4, the heat exchange efficiency is improved, the heat release of the refrigerant is facilitated, and the refrigerant changes from a gaseous state to a liquid state, in the two-phase region, as the refrigerant gradually changes from a gaseous state to a liquid state, the pressure and the specific volume are gradually reduced, the flow rate is reduced, and the flow area of the heat exchange region is gradually reduced in accordance with the state change of the refrigerant, that is, in other words, the heat exchange capability of the refrigerant entering the outdoor heat exchanger 4 from the first port 4a of the outdoor heat exchanger 4 and flowing, The heat exchange effect is better. In the same way, since the refrigerant absorbs heat and evaporates in the outdoor heat exchanger 4 in the heating mode, changes from a liquid state to a gas state, therefore, the pressure, specific volume and flow rate of the refrigerant entering the outdoor heat exchanger 4 are small, the dryness of the refrigerant is continuously increased along with the evaporation, the pressure and specific volume of the refrigerant are continuously increased, the flow rate is increased rapidly, thus, the refrigerant can be made to flow into the outdoor heat exchanger 4 from the second port 4b of the outdoor heat exchanger 4 and flow out of the first port 4a in the exterior heat exchanger 4 in the warming mode, is favorable for increasing the flow area of the refrigerant along with the process of changing the refrigerant from liquid state to gas state, so that the amount of the refrigerant introduced into the heat exchange zone is gradually increased from the second port 4b to the first port 4a of the outdoor heat exchanger 4, and further, the heat exchange capability of the refrigerant for absorbing heat and evaporating in the outdoor heat exchanger 4 is more uniform, and the heat exchange effect is better.
Further, in order to achieve a gradual decrease in the flow area of the plurality of heat transfer zones from the first port 4a of the outdoor heat exchanger 4 to the second port 4b thereof, in one embodiment provided by the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 5 and 6, a plurality of flow channels with the same cross-sectional area are formed in each heat exchange region, and the flow channels in two adjacent heat exchange regions are communicated with each other, so that the refrigerant can flow through the plurality of heat exchange areas in sequence for heat exchange, the first port 4a of the outdoor heat exchanger 4 is communicated with the flow channel in the closest heat exchange area, the second port 4b of the outdoor heat exchanger 4 is communicated with the flow channel in the closest heat exchange area, so that the refrigerant can enter the outdoor heat exchanger 4 through the first port 4a or the second port 4b and sequentially flow through the plurality of heat exchange regions in a direction from the first port 4a to the second port 4b, or sequentially flow through the plurality of heat exchange regions in a direction from the second port 4b to the first port 4 a. Wherein the number of flow passages in the plurality of heat transfer zones decreases in order in a direction from the first port 4a of the outdoor heat exchanger 4 to the second port 4b thereof. Since the cross-sectional areas of the plurality of flow passages are the same, the flow area of the heat exchange region with the larger number of flow passages is larger than the flow area of the heat exchange region with the smaller number of flow passages, that is, the flow areas of the plurality of heat exchange regions gradually decrease from the first port 4a of the outdoor heat exchanger 4 to the second port 4b thereof. Here, the microchannel heat exchanger may be a horizontal header microchannel heat exchanger as shown in fig. 5, or may be a vertical header microchannel heat exchanger as shown in fig. 6, to which the present disclosure is not limited.
In other embodiments, the number of the flow passages in the plurality of heat transfer zones may be the same, and the cross-sectional areas of the flow passages may be different, and the cross-sectional areas of the flow passages of the plurality of heat transfer zones decrease in sequence from the first port 4a of the outdoor heat exchanger 4 to the second port 4b thereof, so that the flow areas of the plurality of heat transfer zones gradually decrease from the first port 4a of the outdoor heat exchanger 4 to the second port 4b thereof.
Further, the flow channels may be directly integrated into the casing of the outdoor heat exchanger 4, or the outdoor heat exchanger 4 may be a micro-channel heat exchanger, at least one flat tube 10 is provided in each heat exchange area, and a plurality of flow channels are formed in the flat tubes 10.
