Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of carbon dioxide heat pump systems, and particularly relates to a charging amount calculation method and system for a carbon dioxide heat pump system for vehicles. BACKGROUND
[0002] The statements in this section merely provide background information related to the application and do not necessarily constitute prior art.
[0003] At present, all automobile air conditioners are prohibited from using refrigerants with a GWP value greater than 150. With the change of automobiles from fuel power to electric power, it is inevitable for the vehicle air conditioning system to use low-GWP refrigerants, and CO2 will inevitably become a development hotspot. In particular, electric vehicles do not have the waste heat of fuel vehicles for heating in winter, and the use of air source heat pumps will be a more energy-saving and environmentally friendly choice. The transcritical CO2 heat pump air conditioning system can not only absorb environmental heat energy to realize low-temperature heating and effectively improve the endurance of the passenger car, but also can realize high-temperature refrigeration to meet the comprehensive demand for cold and heat of the air conditioning system throughout the year.
[0004] The application of transcritical CO2 cycle system in automobile air conditioning system has developed greatly in recent years. Experimental research shows that the comprehensive performance of the CO2 cycle system is greatly affected by the charging amount: if the refrigerant charging amount is insufficient, the evaporation temperature and pressure of the CO2 cycle system will decrease, the mass flow rate of the refrigerant will decrease, the refrigerant liquid in the evaporator will evaporate into gas without flowing completely, resulting in insufficient refrigerating capacity and excessive outlet superheat, thereby causing the suction and discharge temperatures of the compressor to be too high, causing the compressor to overheat and protect; if the charging amount is too much, the system evaporation pressure and discharge pressure will be too high, which will easily cause the high-pressure protection of the compressor, and may also cause liquid knock of the compressor, affecting the service life of the compressor. Through the research on the charging amount of the CO2 cycle system, there is an optimal charging amount to make the performance of the CO2 cycle system optimal.
[0005] For the research on the charging amount of the CO2 cycle air conditioning system, most of them are through the help of enthalpy difference laboratory to build system bench, and the optimal charging amount of system operation is researched through experimental test method, which can be carried out when the related air conditioning system sample maturity is high in the middle period of vehicle development project development.
