Description
本発明は貯湯給湯装置に関し、特に貯湯タンクの湯水温度が低下した場合に燃焼式の補助熱源機を利用して湯水を再加熱して出湯するものに関する。 The present invention relates to a hot water storage hot water supply apparatus, and more particularly to an apparatus for reheating hot water using a combustion type auxiliary heat source device when the hot water temperature of a hot water storage tank is lowered.
従来から、高温水を生成して貯湯し、所望の給湯先に供給可能な貯湯給湯装置が実用に供されている。この種の貯湯給湯装置は、湯水を貯留する為の貯湯タンクと、各種の弁部材や各種の配管類と、貯湯タンク内に貯留された湯水温度が低い場合等に再加熱する為の補助熱源機と、これら機器を内蔵した外装ケースと、高温水を生成する為の外部熱源機等を備えている。 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, hot water storage and hot water supply apparatuses that generate and store hot water and supply hot water to a desired hot water supply destination have been put to practical use. This type of hot water storage and hot water supply system has a hot water storage tank for storing hot water, various valve members and various pipes, and an auxiliary heat source for reheating when the temperature of the hot water stored in the hot water storage tank is low. Machine, an external case containing these devices, an external heat source machine for generating high-temperature water, and the like.
ところで、貯湯タンク内の湯水を再加熱する為に補助熱源機を稼動した場合、補助熱源機から給湯通路に流入した高温水が、貯湯タンクから補助熱源機をバイパスして給湯通路に流入した低温の湯水と混合してしまい、出湯特性が悪化する場合がある。この問題を解決する為に、補助熱源機を経由する通路に圧送ポンプを設置した構造の場合、圧送ポンプの出力能力を上昇させて、補助熱源機からの高温水を少量だけ常時貯湯タンク側へ流し込むように制御することで、貯湯タンク側から給湯通路に低温の湯水が流入するのを防止し、出湯特性の悪化を防止している。 By the way, when the auxiliary heat source unit is operated to reheat the hot water in the hot water storage tank, the high temperature water flowing from the auxiliary heat source unit into the hot water supply passage bypasses the auxiliary heat source device and flows into the hot water supply passage from the hot water storage tank. The hot water may be mixed with hot water, and the hot spring characteristics may deteriorate. In order to solve this problem, in the case of a structure where a pressure pump is installed in the passage through the auxiliary heat source unit, the output capacity of the pressure pump is increased so that a small amount of high-temperature water from the auxiliary heat source unit is always sent to the hot water storage tank side. By controlling to flow, low temperature hot water is prevented from flowing into the hot water supply passage from the hot water storage tank side, and deterioration of the hot water discharge characteristic is prevented.
上記の補助熱源機によって生成された高温水を貯湯タンク側に戻す技術としては、例えば、特許文献１の給湯システムでは、補助熱源機と、貯湯タンクから補助熱源機へ接続する通路と、補助熱源機から給湯通路へ接続する通路と、貯湯タンクの上部から補助熱源機をバイパスして直接給湯通路に接続する通路とからループ状循環回路を構成し、補助熱源機を利用した給湯運転終了後に、補助熱源機の稼動を一定時間継続して、高温水をループ状循環回路に循環させることで貯湯タンク側へ高温水を戻す技術も開示されている。 As a technique for returning the high-temperature water generated by the auxiliary heat source device to the hot water storage tank side, for example, in the hot water supply system of Patent Document 1, an auxiliary heat source device, a passage connecting the hot water storage tank to the auxiliary heat source device, and an auxiliary heat source A loop circulation circuit is constructed from the passage connecting from the machine to the hot water supply passage and the passage connecting directly from the upper part of the hot water storage tank to the hot water supply passage, and after the hot water supply operation using the auxiliary heat source machine is completed, A technique is also disclosed in which the operation of the auxiliary heat source unit is continued for a certain period of time and the high temperature water is returned to the hot water storage tank side by circulating the high temperature water to the loop circulation circuit.
しかし、従来のように、補助熱源機を利用した給湯運転中に、補助熱源機で生成された高温水を貯湯タンク側に戻すと、この戻された湯水が貯湯タンクの上部から補助熱源機へ流れる湯水と混合し、補助熱源機へ流れる湯水温度が上昇するので、補助熱源機の熱交換効率が低下し、さらに、貯湯タンク側へ高温水を戻す為に圧送ポンプの出力を上昇させる必要があるので、圧送ポンプの消費電力が増加し、貯湯給湯装置の運転効率が低下するという問題がある。 However, if the high-temperature water generated by the auxiliary heat source unit is returned to the hot water storage tank side during the hot water supply operation using the auxiliary heat source unit, the returned hot water is transferred from the upper part of the hot water storage tank to the auxiliary heat source unit. Since the temperature of hot water flowing into the auxiliary heat source unit rises when mixed with flowing hot water, the heat exchange efficiency of the auxiliary heat source unit decreases, and it is necessary to increase the output of the pressure pump to return hot water to the hot water storage tank side. Therefore, there is a problem that the power consumption of the pressure pump increases and the operating efficiency of the hot water storage hot water supply device decreases.
また、特許文献１の給湯システムのように、補助熱源機で加熱された湯水をループ状循環回路に循環させる技術を利用すると、給湯に寄与しない高温水を生成することになり、貯湯給湯装置の運転効率が低下する。 Moreover, if the technique which circulates the hot water heated with the auxiliary heat source machine to a loop-shaped circulation circuit like the hot-water supply system of patent document 1, it will produce the high temperature water which does not contribute to hot water supply, Operating efficiency is reduced.
ところで、補助熱源機の稼動判定は、貯湯タンクの上部に設置された湯水温度検知センサによって行われるので、貯湯タンクの湯水温度検知センサより上側には、給湯可能な高温水が残っている可能性がある。この貯湯タンク内に残っている給湯可能な高温水は、極力有効に利用することが望ましい。 By the way, since the operation determination of the auxiliary heat source unit is performed by the hot water temperature detection sensor installed at the upper part of the hot water storage tank, there is a possibility that hot water that can be supplied with hot water remains above the hot water temperature detection sensor of the hot water storage tank. There is. It is desirable to utilize the hot water remaining in the hot water storage tank that can supply hot water as effectively as possible.
本発明の目的は、貯湯給湯装置において、補助熱源機の熱交換効率の低下を防止可能なもの、等を提供することである。 The objective of this invention is providing the thing etc. which can prevent the fall of the heat exchange efficiency of an auxiliary heat source machine in a hot water storage hot-water supply apparatus.
請求項１の貯湯給湯装置は、貯湯タンクの上部から給湯通路に接続されるタンク出湯通路と、このタンク出湯通路から分岐され燃焼式の補助熱源機に接続される補助加熱通路と、この補助加熱通路に設置された圧送手段と、前記補助熱源機から前記給湯通路に接続される補助熱源機出湯通路とを備え、前記補助熱源機で加熱した高温水を前記給湯通路へ供給する場合には、前記補助熱源機出湯通路から前記タンク出湯通路へ高温水の一部が流れ込むように前記圧送手段を駆動する貯湯給湯装置において、前記貯湯タンクの上部から前記タンク出湯通路へ出湯される湯水温度を検知する為の温度検知手段と、この温度検知手段の検知温度に応じて前記圧送手段を制御する圧送手段制御手段とを備えたことを特徴としている。 The hot water storage and hot water supply apparatus according to claim 1 includes a tank hot water passage connected from the upper part of the hot water storage tank to the hot water supply passage, an auxiliary heating passage branched from the tank hot water passage and connected to a combustion type auxiliary heat source device, and the auxiliary heating passage. In the case of supplying a hot water heated by the auxiliary heat source machine to the hot water supply passage, comprising a pumping means installed in the passage and an auxiliary heat source machine outlet hot water passage connected from the auxiliary heat source machine to the hot water supply passage, In the hot water storage hot water supply apparatus that drives the pressure feeding means so that a part of high temperature water flows from the auxiliary heat source machine hot water discharge passage to the tank hot water discharge passage, the temperature of hot water discharged from the upper part of the hot water storage tank to the tank hot water supply passage is detected. And a pressure feeding means control means for controlling the pressure feeding means in accordance with the temperature detected by the temperature detecting means.
請求項２の貯湯給湯装置は、請求項１の発明において、前記圧送手段制御手段は、前記温度検知手段の検知温度が設定温度以上の場合、前記補助熱源機出湯通路から前記タンク出湯通路へ高温水が流れ込まないように前記圧送手段を制御し、前記温度検知手段の検知温度が設定温度未満になった場合、前記補助熱源機出湯通路から前記タンク出湯通路へ高温水の一部が流れ込むように前記圧送手段を制御することを特徴としている。 According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided the hot water storage and hot water supply apparatus according to the first aspect of the invention, wherein the pressure feeding means control means has a high temperature from the auxiliary heat source machine hot water passage to the tank hot water passage when the temperature detected by the temperature detection means is higher than a preset temperature. The pressure feeding means is controlled so that water does not flow, and when the detected temperature of the temperature detecting means becomes lower than a set temperature, a part of high temperature water flows from the auxiliary heat source machine hot water outlet passage to the tank hot water outlet passage. The pumping means is controlled.
請求項１の発明によれば、貯湯タンクの上部からタンク出湯通路へ出湯される湯水温度を検知する為の温度検知手段と、この温度検知手段の検知温度に応じて圧送手段を制御する圧送手段制御手段とを備えたので、圧送手段制御手段によって、貯湯タンクの上部からタンク出湯通路へ出湯される湯水温度に応じて、補助熱源機出湯通路からタンク出湯通路へ流れ込む高温水の流量を可変にすることができる。 According to the first aspect of the present invention, the temperature detecting means for detecting the temperature of hot water discharged from the upper part of the hot water storage tank to the tank outlet passage, and the pressure feeding means for controlling the pressure feeding means in accordance with the detected temperature of the temperature detecting means. Control means so that the flow rate of hot water flowing from the auxiliary heat source machine hot water outlet passage to the tank hot water passage can be varied according to the hot water temperature discharged from the upper part of the hot water storage tank to the tank hot water outlet passage by the pressure feeding means control means. can do.
従って、補助熱源機を稼動した際に、温度検知手段より下流側に給湯可能な高温水が残っている場合、この給湯可能な高温水が補助熱源機で生成された高温水と混合しても出湯特性は著しく悪化しないので、圧送手段の出力能力を抑制して、補助熱源機からの高温水を貯湯タンク側へ流し込ませない。故に、貯湯タンク側へ高温水が戻らないので、補助熱源機へ流れる湯水温度は上昇せず、補助熱源機の熱交換効率が低下するのを防止可能であり、さらに、出湯特性を維持しつつ、圧送手段の消費電力を低減することができるので、貯湯給湯装置の運転効率が向上する。 Therefore, when hot water that can be supplied with hot water remains downstream from the temperature detecting means when the auxiliary heat source unit is operated, even if this hot water that can be supplied with hot water is mixed with the hot water generated by the auxiliary heat source device Since the hot water discharge characteristic does not deteriorate significantly, the output capacity of the pumping means is suppressed, and the high temperature water from the auxiliary heat source machine is not allowed to flow into the hot water storage tank side. Therefore, since hot water does not return to the hot water storage tank side, the temperature of hot water flowing to the auxiliary heat source machine does not rise, and it is possible to prevent the heat exchange efficiency of the auxiliary heat source machine from being lowered, while maintaining the hot water discharge characteristics. Since the power consumption of the pumping means can be reduced, the operating efficiency of the hot water storage hot water supply apparatus is improved.
請求項２の発明によれば、圧送手段制御手段は、温度検知手段の検知温度が設定温度以上の場合、補助熱源機出湯通路からタンク出湯通路へ高温水が流れ込まないように圧送手段を制御し、温度検知手段の検知温度が設定温度未満になった場合、補助熱源機出湯通路からタンク出湯通路へ高温水の一部が流れ込むように圧送手段を制御するので、温度検知手段より下流側における給湯可能な高温水を確実に消費してから圧送手段の出力能力を上昇させて、補助熱源機出湯通路からタンク出湯通路へ高温水の一部が流れ込むようにすることで、従来通り出湯特性を維持することができる。 According to the invention of claim 2, the pressure feeding means control means controls the pressure feeding means so that the high temperature water does not flow from the auxiliary heat source machine hot water discharge passage into the tank hot water discharge passage when the detected temperature of the temperature detection means is equal to or higher than the set temperature. When the temperature detected by the temperature detecting means is lower than the set temperature, the pressure feeding means is controlled so that a part of the high temperature water flows from the auxiliary heat source machine hot water outlet passage to the tank hot water outlet passage. Maintaining hot water discharge characteristics as before by increasing the output capacity of the pumping means after consuming high-temperature water as much as possible and allowing some of the hot water to flow from the auxiliary heat source machine hot water passage to the tank hot water passage. can do.

次に、制御ユニット３５について説明する。
図１に示すように、貯湯給湯装置１は、制御ユニット３５によって制御される。各種のセンサの検知信号が制御ユニット３５に送信され、この制御ユニット３５により、貯湯給湯装置１の動作、各種のポンプの作動・停止、各種の弁の開閉状態の切り換え及び開度調整等を制御し、各種運転（給湯運転、湯水加熱運転、暖房運転、排水運転等）を実行する。
Next, the control unit 35 will be described.
As shown in FIG. 1, the hot water storage and hot water supply device 1 is controlled by a control unit 35. Detection signals of various sensors are transmitted to the control unit 35, and the control unit 35 controls the operation of the hot water storage and hot water supply device 1, the operation / stop of various pumps, the switching of the open / close states of various valves, and the opening degree adjustment. Then, various operations (hot water supply operation, hot water heating operation, heating operation, drainage operation, etc.) are executed.
次に、補助熱源機３を利用した給湯運転制御について、図２のフローチャートに基づいて説明する。尚、図中の符号Ｓｉ（ｉ=１，２，・・）は各ステップを示す。この給湯運転制御の制御プログラムは、制御ユニット３５に予め格納されている。 Next, hot water supply operation control using the auxiliary heat source unit 3 will be described based on the flowchart of FIG. In the figure, the symbol Si (i = 1, 2,...) Indicates each step. The control program for the hot water supply operation control is stored in the control unit 35 in advance.
図２のフローチャートにおいて、この制御が開始されると、最初にＳ１において、ユーザーの操作や各種のセンサの検知信号に基づいて給湯運転開始条件成立か否か判定される。Ｓ１の判定がＹｅｓの場合、つまり、給湯運転を開始する為の条件が成立している場合は、Ｓ２に移行し、Ｓ１の判定がＮｏのうちはＳ１を繰り返す。 In the flowchart of FIG. 2, when this control is started, first, in S1, it is determined whether or not a hot water supply operation start condition is satisfied based on a user operation and detection signals of various sensors. When the determination of S1 is Yes, that is, when the condition for starting the hot water supply operation is satisfied, the process proceeds to S2, and S1 is repeated while the determination of S1 is No.
次に、Ｓ２において、給湯運転を開始し、Ｓ３に移行する。即ち、給湯栓の開放に伴い、貯湯タンク２にかかる給水圧によって貯湯タンク２の上部から高温水がタンク出湯通路２２に押し出され、この高温水は、タンク出湯通路２２を通って給湯通路２１に流入し、混合弁２５において低温の上水と混合されて温度調整され、この温度調整された湯水が給湯栓から給湯される。 Next, in S2, a hot water supply operation is started, and the process proceeds to S3. That is, with the opening of the hot water tap, hot water is pushed out from the upper part of the hot water storage tank 2 to the tank hot water passage 22 by the hot water pressure applied to the hot water storage tank 2, and this hot water passes through the tank hot water supply passage 22 to the hot water supply passage 21. The temperature is adjusted by mixing with low temperature clean water in the mixing valve 25, and the temperature-adjusted hot water is supplied from the hot water tap.
次に、Ｓ３において、貯湯タンク湯水温度検知センサ２ｄの検知信号を読み込み、この検知信号に基づいて、貯湯タンク２内の上部に貯留されている湯水温度（検知温度）Ｔａを算出して、Ｓ４に移行する。 Next, in S3, the detection signal of the hot water storage tank hot water temperature detection sensor 2d is read, and based on this detection signal, the hot water temperature (detection temperature) Ta stored in the upper part of the hot water storage tank 2 is calculated. Migrate to
次に、Ｓ４において、貯湯タンク２内の上部の湯水温度Ｔａが、給湯設定温度（例えば４０℃）に所定の設定温度α（例えば５℃）加えた第１設定温度以下か否かを判定する。Ｓ４の判定がＹｅｓの場合、つまり、貯湯タンク２内の高温水の量が減少し、高温水が貯湯タンク２内において貯湯タンク湯水温度検知センサ２ｄの上側の容積分しか残っていない場合は、Ｓ５に移行する。 Next, in S4, it is determined whether or not the hot water temperature Ta in the upper part of the hot water storage tank 2 is equal to or lower than a first set temperature obtained by adding a predetermined set temperature α (for example, 5 ° C.) to a set temperature for hot water supply (for example, 40 ° C.). . When the determination of S4 is Yes, that is, when the amount of hot water in the hot water storage tank 2 is reduced and the hot water remains in the hot water storage tank 2 only for the volume above the hot water storage tank hot water temperature detection sensor 2d, The process proceeds to S5.
尚、Ｓ４の判定がＮｏの場合、つまり、貯湯タンク２内に高温水が十分に残っている場合は、Ｓ６に移行して、給湯運転終了条件成立か否か判定される。Ｓ６の判定がＹｅｓの場合、Ｓ１２に移行して、給湯運転を終了する。Ｓ６の判定がＮｏの場合、つまり、給湯運転を継続する場合は、Ｓ３に移行して、Ｓ３とＳ４を繰り返し実行する。 If the determination in S4 is No, that is, if sufficient hot water remains in the hot water storage tank 2, the process proceeds to S6 to determine whether or not the hot water supply operation end condition is satisfied. When determination of S6 is Yes, it transfers to S12 and a hot water supply driving | operation is complete | finished. When the determination of S6 is No, that is, when the hot water supply operation is continued, the process proceeds to S3, and S3 and S4 are repeatedly executed.
次に、Ｓ５において、湯水温度Ｔａが第１設定温度以下になった場合に、三方弁２６を補助加熱通路２３側に切り換え、圧送ポンプ２７を駆動して、補助熱源機３を稼動して、Ｓ７に移行する。即ち、圧送ポンプ２７の駆動に伴い、貯湯タンク２から出湯した湯水は、タンク出湯通路２２の上流出湯通路部２２ａから補助加熱通路２３へ流れて補助熱源機３に流入し、補助熱源機３で加熱された湯水（例えば７５度）は、補助熱源機出湯通路２４を流れて給湯通路２１に流入する。 Next, in S5, when the hot water temperature Ta becomes equal to or lower than the first set temperature, the three-way valve 26 is switched to the auxiliary heating passage 23 side, the pumping pump 27 is driven, and the auxiliary heat source unit 3 is operated. The process proceeds to S7. That is, the hot water discharged from the hot water storage tank 2 in accordance with the driving of the pressure feed pump 27 flows from the upper outlet water passage portion 22a of the tank hot water passage 22 to the auxiliary heating passage 23 and flows into the auxiliary heat source device 3, and the auxiliary heat source device 3 The hot water heated at (for example, 75 degrees) flows through the auxiliary heat source machine hot water outlet passage 24 and flows into the hot water supply passage 21.
このとき、上流出湯通路部２２ａを流れる湯水の湯水温度Ｔａは、最初は第１設定温度を超えているので、この湯水が下流出湯通路部２２ｂを流れて補助熱源機３から給湯通路２１へ流入する高温水と混合しても、出湯特性は著しく悪化しない。このため、圧送ポンプ２７は、補助熱源機出湯通路２４からタンク出湯通路２２へ高温水が流れ込まないように制御することができる。例えば、流量センサ２１ｃに基づいて算出された要求給湯流量が3.0 L/minの場合、タンク出湯通路２１への押し戻し流量が0.0L/minとなるように、圧送ポンプ２７は、補助熱源機３からの給湯流量が3.0 L/minとなるように制御される。 At this time, since the hot water temperature Ta of the hot water flowing through the upper effluent hot water passage portion 22a exceeds the first set temperature, the hot water flows through the lower effluent hot water passage portion 22b and flows from the auxiliary heat source machine 3 to the hot water supply passage 21. Even when mixed with hot water flowing into the water, the hot water characteristics are not significantly deteriorated. For this reason, the pressure feed pump 27 can be controlled so that high temperature water does not flow from the auxiliary heat source machine hot water passage 24 into the tank hot water passage 22. For example, when the required hot water supply flow rate calculated based on the flow rate sensor 21c is 3.0 L / min, the pressure feed pump 27 is supplied from the auxiliary heat source unit 3 so that the push back flow rate to the tank hot water discharge passage 21 is 0.0 L / min. The hot water flow rate is controlled to be 3.0 L / min.
次に、Ｓ７において、通路湯水温度検知センサ２５の検知信号を読み込み、この検知信号に基づいて、タンク出湯通路２２の上流出湯通路部２２ａを流れる湯水温度（検知温度）Ｔｂを算出して、Ｓ８に移行する。 Next, in S7, the detection signal of the passage hot water temperature detection sensor 25 is read, and based on this detection signal, the hot water temperature (detection temperature) Tb flowing through the upper outlet water passage portion 22a of the tank outlet passage 22 is calculated, The process proceeds to S8.
次に、Ｓ８において、タンク出湯通路２２の上流出湯通路部２２ａを流れる湯水温度Ｔｂが、給湯設定温度に所定の設定温度β（例えば１℃）加えた第２設定温度（本発明の設定温度に相当する）未満か否かを判定する。Ｓ８の判定がＹｅｓの場合、つまり、貯湯タンク２内における貯湯タンク湯水温度検知センサ２ｄから上側の容積分の高温水が出湯され、タンク出湯通路２２の湯水温度Ｔｂが低下した場合は、Ｓ９に移行する。 Next, in S8, the hot water temperature Tb flowing through the upper outlet water passage portion 22a of the tank discharge passage 22 is set to a second set temperature (the set temperature of the present invention) obtained by adding a predetermined set temperature β (for example, 1 ° C.) to the hot water supply set temperature. Or less). When the determination of S8 is Yes, that is, when the hot water for the upper volume is discharged from the hot water storage tank hot water temperature detection sensor 2d in the hot water storage tank 2 and the hot water temperature Tb of the tank hot water discharge passage 22 is lowered, the process goes to S9. Transition.
尚、Ｓ８の判定がＮｏの場合、つまり、貯湯タンク２内に給湯可能な高温水が残っている場合は、Ｓ１０に移行して、給湯運転終了条件成立か否か判定され、Ｓ１０の判定がＹｅｓの場合、Ｓ１２に移行して、給湯運転を終了する。Ｓ８の判定がＮｏの場合、つまり、給湯運転を継続する場合は、Ｓ７に移行して、Ｓ７とＳ８を繰り返し実行する。 If the determination in S8 is No, that is, if hot water that can be supplied with hot water remains in the hot water storage tank 2, the process proceeds to S10, where it is determined whether the hot water supply operation end condition is satisfied, and the determination in S10 is made. In the case of Yes, it transfers to S12 and completes the hot water supply operation. When the determination of S8 is No, that is, when the hot water supply operation is continued, the process proceeds to S7, and S7 and S8 are repeatedly executed.
次に、Ｓ９において、湯水温度Ｔｂが第２設定温度未満になった場合に、圧送ポンプ２７の出力能力を上昇させて、Ｓ１１に移行する。即ち、貯湯タンク２内の上部から第２設定温度以上の給湯可能な高温水が上流出湯通路部２２ａを流れるが、この高温水の量は徐々に減少していくので、湯水温度Ｔｂは徐々に低下し、第２設定温度未満になった場合に、圧送ポンプ２７の出力能力を上昇させる。例えば、要求給湯流量が3.0 L/minの場合、タンク出湯通路２２への押し戻し流量が0.5L/minとなるように、圧送ポンプ２７は、補助熱源機３からの給湯流量が3.5 L/minとなるように制御される。このように、貯湯タンク２の上部からタンク出湯通路２２へ流れる湯水の温度に応じて、タンク出湯通路２２への押し戻し流量を可変にする。尚、タンク出湯通路２２への押し戻し流量の設定値は、ほんの一例を示したに過ぎず、適宜変更可能である。 Next, in S9, when the hot water temperature Tb becomes lower than the second set temperature, the output capacity of the pressure feed pump 27 is increased, and the process proceeds to S11. That is, hot water capable of supplying hot water at a temperature equal to or higher than the second set temperature flows from the upper part of the hot water storage tank 2 through the upper effluent hot water passage portion 22a, but the amount of the high temperature water gradually decreases, so the hot water temperature Tb gradually increases. When the temperature falls below the second set temperature, the output capacity of the pressure pump 27 is increased. For example, when the required hot water supply flow rate is 3.0 L / min, the pressure feed pump 27 has a hot water supply flow rate of 3.5 L / min from the auxiliary heat source unit 3 so that the push-back flow rate to the tank discharge passage 22 is 0.5 L / min. It is controlled to become. In this way, the flow rate of pushing back into the tank hot water passage 22 is made variable in accordance with the temperature of the hot water flowing from the upper part of the hot water storage tank 2 to the tank hot water passage 22. Note that the set value of the flow rate of pushing back into the tank discharge passage 22 is merely an example and can be changed as appropriate.
Ｓ１１において、給湯運転終了条件成立か否か判定され、Ｓ１１の判定がＮｏのうちはＳ１１の判定を繰り返し、Ｓ１１の判定がＹｅｓの場合、Ｓ１２に移行して、給湯運転を終了する。尚、制御ユニット３５、制御プログラムのＳ３〜Ｓ９等が本発明の圧送手段制御手段に相当するものである。 In S11, it is determined whether or not the hot water supply operation termination condition is satisfied. If the determination in S11 is No, the determination in S11 is repeated. If the determination in S11 is Yes, the process proceeds to S12 to end the hot water supply operation. The control unit 35, the control programs S3 to S9, and the like correspond to the pressure feeding means control means of the present invention.
従来のように、圧送ポンプ２７をタンク出湯通路２２への押し戻し流量が一定となるように制御すると、要求給湯流量が低い程(例えば2.5 L/minの場合)、タンク出湯通路２２への押し戻し流量の割合が高くなるので、補助熱源機３の熱交換効率が著しく低下していたが、圧送ポンプ２７を可変にすることで、補助熱源機３の熱交換効率の低下を防止することができる。 When the pumping pump 27 is controlled so that the flow rate of pushing back into the tank hot water passage 22 becomes constant as in the prior art, the lower the required hot water supply flow rate (for example, 2.5 L / min), the push back flow rate into the tank hot water passage 22. However, the heat exchange efficiency of the auxiliary heat source unit 3 is remarkably lowered. However, by making the pressure pump 27 variable, it is possible to prevent the heat exchange efficiency of the auxiliary heat source unit 3 from being lowered.
本発明の貯湯給湯装置１の作用及び効果について説明する。
貯湯給湯装置１は、貯湯タンク２の上部からタンク出湯通路２２へ出湯される湯水温度を検知する為の通路湯水温度検知センサ２５と、この通路湯水温度検知センサ２５の検知温度に応じて圧送ポンプ２７を制御する制御ユニット３５とを備えたので、制御ユニット３５によって、貯湯タンク２の上部からタンク出湯通路２２へ出湯される湯水温度に応じて、補助熱源機出湯通路２４からタンク出湯通路２２へ流れ込む高温水の流量を可変にすることができる。
The operation and effect of the hot water storage hot water supply apparatus 1 of the present invention will be described.
The hot water storage and hot water supply device 1 includes a passage hot water temperature detection sensor 25 for detecting the temperature of hot water discharged from the upper part of the hot water storage tank 2 to the tank hot water discharge passage 22, and a pressure pump according to the detected temperature of the passage hot water temperature detection sensor 25. The control unit 35 controls the hot water storage tank 2 from the upper part of the hot water storage tank 2 to the tank hot water passage 22 to the tank hot water passage 22 from the auxiliary heat source outlet hot water passage 24 according to the hot water temperature. The flow rate of hot water flowing in can be made variable.
従って、補助熱源機３を稼動した際に、通路湯水温度検知センサ２５より下流側に給湯可能な高温水が残っている場合、この給湯可能な高温水が補助熱源機３で生成された高温水と混合しても出湯特性は著しく悪化しないので、圧送ポンプ２７の出力能力を抑制して、補助熱源機３からの高温水を貯湯タンク２側へ流し込ませない。故に、貯湯タンク２側へ高温水が戻らないので、補助熱源機３へ流れる湯水温度は上昇せず、補助熱源機３の熱交換効率が低下するのを防止可能であり、さらに、出湯特性を維持しつつ、圧送ポンプ２７の消費電力を低減することができるので、貯湯給湯装置１の運転効率が向上する。 Therefore, when hot water that can be supplied with hot water remains downstream of the passage hot water temperature detection sensor 25 when the auxiliary heat source device 3 is operated, the hot water that can be supplied with hot water is generated by the auxiliary heat source device 3. Since the hot water discharge characteristic does not deteriorate significantly even if mixed with the hot water, the output capacity of the pressure pump 27 is suppressed, and the high temperature water from the auxiliary heat source unit 3 is not allowed to flow into the hot water storage tank 2 side. Therefore, since hot water does not return to the hot water storage tank 2 side, the temperature of the hot water flowing to the auxiliary heat source unit 3 does not rise, and it is possible to prevent the heat exchange efficiency of the auxiliary heat source unit 3 from being lowered. Since the power consumption of the pressure pump 27 can be reduced while maintaining, the operating efficiency of the hot water storage hot water supply apparatus 1 is improved.
また、制御ユニット３５は、通路湯水温度検知センサ２５の検知温度が設定温度以上の場合、補助熱源機出湯通路２４からタンク出湯通路２２へ高温水が流れ込まないように圧送ポンプ２７を制御し、通路湯水温度検知センサ２５の検知温度が設定温度未満になった場合、補助熱源機出湯通路２４からタンク出湯通路２２へ高温水の一部が流れ込むように圧送ポンプ２７を制御するので、通路湯水温度検知センサ２５から下流側における給湯可能な高温水を確実に消費してから圧送ポンプ２７の出力能力を上昇させて、補助熱源機出湯通路２４からタンク出湯通路２１へ高温水の一部が流れ込むようにすることで、従来通り出湯特性を維持することができる。 Further, the control unit 35 controls the pressure pump 27 so that the high temperature water does not flow from the auxiliary heat source machine hot water passage 24 into the tank hot water passage 22 when the detected temperature of the hot water temperature detection sensor 25 is equal to or higher than the set temperature. When the detected temperature of the hot water temperature detection sensor 25 is lower than the set temperature, the pressure pump 27 is controlled so that a part of the high-temperature water flows from the auxiliary heat source machine hot water outlet passage 24 to the tank hot water outlet passage 22. After the high temperature water that can be supplied with hot water downstream from the sensor 25 is surely consumed, the output capacity of the pressure feed pump 27 is increased so that a part of the high temperature water flows from the auxiliary heat source machine hot water outlet passage 24 into the tank hot water outlet passage 21. By doing so, the tapping characteristics can be maintained as usual.
