Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of heat supply system, and particularly relates to a phase change heat storage protection system. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, adding a moderate thickness of the heat preservation layer is a main method for maintaining the space temperature, which can maintain the equipment temperature for a certain period of time, but in the case of extreme cold weather, there is not enough heat to guarantee that the equipment is not damaged at a certain temperature range for a long time. In order to prolong the constant temperature time, the thickness of the heat preservation layer can be increased, but increasing the thickness of the heat preservation layer will cause difficulty in normal heat dissipation of the equipment, and may cause the equipment to run in danger due to local high temperature.

[0003] At present, most of the automatic control and constant temperature devices of the equipment need power to provide support and protection, and cannot automatically respond at the moment of power failure, which may cause damage to the equipment due to low temperature.

[0004] As a means of short-term or long-term energy storage and reuse, heat storage technology can effectively alleviate the mismatch of time, space and intensity between energy supply and demand, and is one of the important ways to improve energy utilization efficiency and alleviate environmental pollution. Phase change heat storage has the advantages of constant temperature and large heat storage density, and is widely used in solar heat utilization, waste heat and residual heat recovery and utilization.

[0005] The working principle of the phase change heat storage protection device is that when the environmental temperature is higher than the phase change temperature of the material, the phase change material absorbs heat and melts to store energy, and when the temperature drops, the phase change material solidifies and releases heat to release energy. The phase change heat storage protection system can automatically absorb and release heat when the temperature changes, and has important significance for limited time protection of equipment power failure fault in extreme weather and prevention of performance damage due to low temperature.
