[0032] Embodiment one
[0033] Figure 1 Structure schematic diagram of an example of the air treatment device according to embodiment one of the present application. Figure 2 Structure schematic diagram of another example of the air treatment device according to embodiment one of the present application. Figure 5 Structure schematic diagram of the heat exchange device in some embodiments of the present application.
[0034] The air treatment device according to the embodiments of the present application, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the air handling device comprises a heat exchange system and a control system. The heat exchange system comprises a compressor 100, a first heat exchanger 200, a heat exchange device 300, a first throttling component 400, a second throttling component 500, a second heat exchanger 600, and a gas-liquid separator 700. The control system comprises a heat generating device 800. The heat exchange device 300 is arranged on the heat generating device 800 and has a first refrigerant flow path 310 and a second refrigerant flow path 320. The second throttling component 500 is arranged to be controllably throttled and shut off. The compressor 100, the first heat exchanger 200, the first refrigerant flow path 310, the first throttling component 400, the second heat exchanger 600, and the gas-liquid separator 700 are connected in series to form a refrigerant circuit. The second throttling component 500 and the second refrigerant flow path 320 are connected in series to form a bypass branch 1200. The inlet of the second throttling component 500 is connected to (i.e., communicates with) a passage between the first refrigerant flow path 310 and the first throttling component 400, and the outlet is connected to (i.e., communicates with) the inlet of the second refrigerant flow path 320. The outlet of the second refrigerant flow path 320 communicates with the inlet of the gas-liquid separator 700.
[0035] In an embodiment, the first heat exchanger 200 is arranged as an indoor heat exchanger, and the second heat exchanger 600 is arranged as an outdoor heat exchanger. The air handling device can be a variable frequency single warm air conditioner.
[0036] The outlet of the compressor 100 communicates with the first heat exchanger 200 for heating operation. The second throttling component 500 is throttled. The refrigerant discharged from the outlet of the compressor 100 becomes a supercooled state after passing through the first heat exchanger 200, and is then divided into two parts: one part passes through the first throttling component 400 to be throttled and then enters the second heat exchanger 600 to be heated, and then passes through the gas-liquid separator 700 to return to the compressor 100; the other part passes through the second throttling component 500 to be throttled and becomes a low-temperature two-phase state refrigerant, which heats the heat generating device 800 and the refrigerant in the first refrigerant flow path 310 during the process of passing through the second refrigerant flow path 320, carries away the heat of the heat generating device 800, and increases the supercooling degree of the refrigerant passing through the first refrigerant flow path 310, and finally passes through the gas-liquid separator 700 in a superheated state to return to the compressor 100. In this way, the enthalpy difference of the refrigerant at the inlet and outlet of the second heat exchanger 600 is larger. This scheme not only applies the heat of the heat generating device 800 to the air handling device, but also reduces the pressure drop of the second heat exchanger 600, increases the suction saturation temperature, and improves the evaporating pressure of the compressor 100, thereby improving the heating capacity of the refrigerant circuit. In addition, the refrigerant entering the first throttling component 400 is supercooled refrigerant, so the noise generated by the first throttling component 400 is smaller. The air handling device can be a variable frequency single warm air conditioner.
[0037] The second throttling component 500 can be arranged to be throttled when the air handling device is operated at a medium-high frequency for heating, and arranged to be shut off when the air handling device is operated at a low frequency for heating.
[0038] In one embodiment, the heating device 800 includes at least one of a frequency converter and a processor. When heating, the heat from at least one of the frequency converter and the processor is used on the air handling unit, thereby improving the heating effect of the air handling unit and reducing the energy consumption of the air handling unit.
[0039] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the air handling unit also includes a third throttling component 900, which is located in the passage between the outlet of the second refrigerant flow path 320 and the inlet of the gas-liquid separator 700. During medium-frequency low-temperature heating, this design can better reduce the pressure drop of the second heat exchanger 600, better increase the suction saturation temperature, better increase the evaporation pressure of the compressor 100, and better improve the heating capacity of the refrigerant circuit.
[0040] In one embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, the second refrigerant flow path 320 is located between the first refrigerant flow path 310 and the heating element 800, which makes it easier for another part of the refrigerant to absorb heat from the heating element 800 and the refrigerant in the first refrigerant flow path 310 during the process of passing through the second refrigerant flow path 320, thereby removing the heat from the heating element 800 and increasing the subcooling of the refrigerant passing through the first refrigerant flow path 310.
[0041] Alternatively, the first refrigerant flow path 310 can be located between the second refrigerant flow path 320 and the heating element 800, which can also achieve the purpose of this application. Its purpose has not departed from the design concept of this invention, and will not be elaborated here. It should also fall within the protection scope of this application.
[0042] In one embodiment, the first throttling component 400, the second throttling component 500, and the third throttling component 900 are all configured as electronic expansion valves, which are easy to procure and have stable performance.
[0043] The second refrigerant flow path 320 may include: a first converging flow channel; a second converging flow channel; and a plurality of branch flow channels located between and connected to the first and second converging flow channels. In one embodiment, the second refrigerant flow path 320 is constructed by two flow channel plates being joined together, with the inlet of the second refrigerant flow path 320 located in the first converging flow channel and the outlet of the second refrigerant flow path 320 located in the second converging flow channel.
[0044] The first refrigerant flow path 310 may include: a first converging flow channel; a second converging flow channel; and a plurality of branch flow channels located between and connected to the first and second converging flow channels. In one embodiment, the first refrigerant flow path 310 is constructed by two flow channel plates being joined together, with the inlet of the first refrigerant flow path 310 located in the first converging flow channel and the outlet of the first refrigerant flow path 310 located in the second converging flow channel.
[0045] In one embodiment, the heat exchange device 300 includes three flow channel plates (or four flow channel plates). The first refrigerant flow path 310 and the first refrigerant flow path 310 are constructed by the three flow channel plates (or four flow channel plates) that are sequentially aligned. Both can achieve the purpose of this application. Their purpose has not departed from the design concept of this invention, and will not be described in detail here. They should all fall within the protection scope of this application.
[0046] In one embodiment, the compressor 100 is an enthalpy-injected compressor, and the outlet of the second refrigerant flow path 320 is also connected to the enthalpy injection port of the enthalpy-injected compressor (not shown in this embodiment).
[0047] Example 2
[0048] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the air treatment device described in Embodiment 2 of the present invention.
[0049] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that: Figure 3 As shown, the air handling unit also includes: a four-way valve 1000, the four ports of which are connected one-to-one to the outlet of the first heat exchanger 200, the second heat exchanger 600, the compressor 100, and the gas-liquid separator 700; and a fourth throttling component 1100, which is connected in series between the first refrigerant flow path 310 and the first heat exchanger 200, wherein either the first throttling component 400 or the fourth throttling component 1100 is opened in a controlled manner and the other is throttled in a controlled manner.
[0050] In one embodiment, the first heat exchanger 200 is configured as an indoor heat exchanger, and the second heat exchanger 600 is configured as an outdoor heat exchanger. The air handling unit can be a variable frequency single-heating air conditioner.
[0051] In the first state, the four-way valve 1000 is in the first state, the outlet of the compressor 100 is connected to the first heat exchanger 200, the first throttling component 400 throttles, and the fourth throttling component 1100 is open (equivalent to a passage), and heating operation is performed. The second throttling component 500 throttles, and the refrigerant discharged from the outlet of the compressor 100 becomes subcooled after passing through the first heat exchanger 200 and the fourth throttling component 1100. After passing through the first refrigerant flow path 310, it is divided into two parts: one part passes through the first throttling component 400 and enters the second heat exchanger 600 to absorb heat, then returns to the compressor 100 through the gas-liquid separator 700; the other part passes through the second throttling component 500 and becomes a low-temperature two-phase refrigerant, then passes through the second refrigerant flow path 310. During the process of 20, the heat is absorbed by the heating element 800 and the refrigerant in the first refrigerant flow path 310, which removes the heat from the heating element 800 and increases the subcooling of the refrigerant passing through the first refrigerant flow path 310. Finally, the refrigerant returns to the compressor 100 in a superheated state through the gas-liquid separator 700. This results in a larger enthalpy difference between the inlet and outlet of the second heat exchanger 600. This scheme can not only apply the heat from the heating element 800 to the air handling unit, but also reduce the pressure drop of the second heat exchanger 600, increase the suction saturation temperature, increase the evaporation pressure of the compressor 100, and improve the heating capacity of the refrigerant circuit. In addition, the refrigerant entering the first throttling component 400 is a subcooled refrigerant, which reduces the noise generated by the first throttling component 400.
[0052] It can be that when performing medium- and high-frequency heating, the second throttling component 500 is set to throttling; when performing low-frequency heating, the second throttling component 500 is set to shut off.
[0053] The four-way valve 1000 is in the second state, the outlet of the compressor 100 is connected to the second heat exchanger 600, the first throttling component 400 is open (equivalent to a passage), and the fourth throttling component 1100 throttles, performing refrigeration operation: the second throttling component 500 throttles, and the refrigerant discharged from the outlet of the compressor 100 is divided into two parts after passing through the second heat exchanger 600 and the first throttling component 400. One part passes through the first refrigerant flow path 310, and after being throttled by the fourth throttling component 1100, it enters the first heat exchanger 200 to absorb heat, and then returns to the compressor 100 after passing through the gas-liquid separator 700; the other part becomes a low-temperature two-phase refrigerant after being throttled by the second throttling component 500. The refrigerant absorbs heat from the heating element 800 and the refrigerant in the first refrigerant flow path 310 during its passage through the second refrigerant flow path 320. This removes heat from the heating element 800 and increases the subcooling of the refrigerant passing through the first refrigerant flow path 310. Finally, it returns to the compressor 100 through the gas-liquid separator 700. This results in a larger enthalpy difference between the inlet and outlet of the first heat exchanger 200. This design can reduce the pressure drop of the first heat exchanger 200 and increase the heat exchange capacity of the first heat exchanger 200, thus increasing the cooling capacity of the air handling unit. In addition, the refrigerant entering the fourth throttling component 1100 is a subcooled refrigerant, which reduces the noise generated by the fourth throttling component 1100.
[0054] It can be that when performing high-frequency cooling, the second throttling component 500 is set to throttling; when performing medium- and low-frequency cooling, the second throttling component 500 is set to shut off.
[0055] The air handling unit can be a variable frequency air conditioner.
[0056] In one embodiment, the fourth throttling component 1100 is configured as an electronic expansion valve, which is readily available and has stable performance.
[0057] Example 3
[0058] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the air handling device described in Embodiment 3 of the present invention.
[0059] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment two is that: Figure 4 As shown, compressor 100 is an enthalpy-injected compressor, and the outlet of the second refrigerant flow path 320 is also connected to the enthalpy injection port 110 of the enthalpy-injected compressor.
[0060] The first heat exchanger 200 is configured as an indoor heat exchanger, and the second heat exchanger 600 is configured as an outdoor heat exchanger. This air handling unit can be a variable frequency single-heating air conditioner.
[0061] In the first state, the four-way valve 1000 is in the first state, the outlet of the compressor 100 is connected to the first heat exchanger 200, the first throttling component 400 throttles, and the fourth throttling component 1100 is open (equivalent to a passage), and heating operation is performed. The second throttling component 500 throttles, and the refrigerant discharged from the outlet of the compressor 100 becomes subcooled after passing through the first heat exchanger 200 and the fourth throttling component 1100. After passing through the first refrigerant flow path 310, it is divided into two parts: one part passes through the first throttling component 400 and enters the second heat exchanger 600 to absorb heat, then returns to the compressor 100 through the gas-liquid separator 700; the other part passes through the second throttling component 500 and becomes a low-temperature two-phase refrigerant, then passes through the second refrigerant flow path 310. During process 20, heat is absorbed from the heating element 800 and the refrigerant in the first refrigerant flow path 310, carrying away the heat from the heating element 800 and increasing the subcooling of the refrigerant passing through the first refrigerant flow path 310. Finally, the refrigerant returns to the compressor 100 in a superheated state through the gas-liquid separator 700. This results in a larger enthalpy difference between the inlet and outlet of the second heat exchanger 600. This scheme not only allows the heat from the heating element 800 to be applied to the air handling unit but also reduces the pressure drop of the second heat exchanger 600, increases the suction saturation temperature, increases the evaporation pressure of the compressor 100, and improves the heating capacity of the refrigerant circuit. Furthermore, the refrigerant entering the first throttling component 400 is subcooled, thus reducing the noise generated by the first throttling component 400. Alternatively, the second throttling component 500 can be set to throttling during medium-high frequency heating and set to shut off during low-frequency heating. When the second throttling component 500 throttles, the refrigerant flowing out of the second refrigerant flow path 320 is divided into two parts. One part flows back to the compressor 100 through the gas-liquid separator 700, and the other part flows into the compressor 100 from the injection enthalpy port 110. By increasing the intake volume of the injection enthalpy compressor, the compression capacity of the injection enthalpy compressor is increased, ultimately achieving the purpose of improving the cooling and heating capacity of the air handling unit.
[0062] The four-way valve 1000 is in the second state, the outlet of the compressor 100 is connected to the second heat exchanger 600, the first throttling component 400 is open (equivalent to a passage), and the fourth throttling component 1100 throttles, performing refrigeration operation: the second throttling component 500 throttles, and the refrigerant discharged from the outlet of the compressor 100 is divided into two parts after passing through the second heat exchanger 600 and the first throttling component 400. One part passes through the first refrigerant flow path 310, and after being throttled by the fourth throttling component 1100, it enters the first heat exchanger 200 to absorb heat, and then returns to the compressor 100 after passing through the gas-liquid separator 700; the other part becomes a low-temperature two-phase refrigerant after being throttled by the second throttling component 500. The refrigerant, during its passage through the second refrigerant flow path 320, absorbs heat from the heating element 800 and the refrigerant in the first refrigerant flow path 310, carrying away heat from the heating element 800 and increasing the subcooling of the refrigerant passing through the first refrigerant flow path 310. Finally, it returns to the compressor 100 via the gas-liquid separator 700. This results in a larger enthalpy difference between the inlet and outlet of the first heat exchanger 200, reducing the pressure drop and increasing the heat exchange capacity of the first heat exchanger 200, thus increasing the cooling capacity of the air handling unit. Furthermore, the refrigerant entering the fourth throttling component 1100 is subcooled, resulting in lower noise from the fourth throttling component 1100. Alternatively, the second throttling component 500 can be set to throttle during high-frequency cooling and to shut off during medium- and low-frequency cooling. When the second throttling component 500 throttles, the refrigerant flowing out of the second refrigerant flow path 320 is divided into two parts. One part flows back to the compressor 100 through the gas-liquid separator 700, and the other part flows into the compressor 100 from the injection enthalpy port 110. By increasing the intake volume of the injection enthalpy compressor, the compression capacity of the injection enthalpy compressor is increased, ultimately achieving the purpose of improving the cooling and heating capacity of the air handling unit.
[0063] In one embodiment, the air handling unit further includes a third throttling component 900 disposed in the passage between the outlet of the second refrigerant flow path 320 and the inlet of the gas-liquid separator 700. During medium-frequency low-temperature heating, this design can better reduce the pressure drop of the second heat exchanger 600, better increase the suction saturation temperature, better increase the evaporation pressure of the compressor 100, and better improve the heating capacity of the refrigerant circuit.
[0064] Example 4
[0065] The air conditioner proposed in this embodiment of the invention (not shown in the figure) includes the air handling device described in any of the above embodiments.
[0066] This air conditioner possesses all the advantages of the air handling device proposed in any of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.
[0067] In summary, in the technical solution of the present invention, the outlet of the compressor is connected to the first heat exchanger for heating operation: the second throttling component throttles. After the refrigerant discharged from the outlet of the compressor passes through the first heat exchanger, it becomes a subcooled state, and then is divided into two parts after passing through the first refrigerant flow path: one part passes through the first throttling component and then enters the second heat exchanger to absorb heat, and then returns to the compressor through the gas-liquid separator; the other part passes through the second throttling component and becomes a low-temperature two-phase refrigerant, and absorbs heat from the heating device and the refrigerant in the first refrigerant flow path during the process of passing through the second refrigerant flow path, takes away the heat of the heating device, and increases the subcooling degree of the refrigerant passing through the first refrigerant flow path, and finally returns to the compressor in a superheated state through the gas-liquid separator. In this way, the enthalpy difference of the refrigerant at the inlet and outlet of the second heat exchanger is larger. This solution can not only apply the heat of the heating device to the air handling device, but also reduce the pressure drop of the second heat exchanger, increase the suction saturation temperature, increase the evaporation pressure of the compressor, and improve the heating capacity of the refrigerant circuit; in addition, the refrigerant entering the first throttling component is a subcooled refrigerant, so the noise generated by the first throttling component is smaller.
