[0002] Battery energy storage systems are often integrated with water-cooled cooling units to ensure uniform heat generation and temperature distribution of the internal batteries. Usually, the outlet water temperature of the water-cooled unit is controlled by on-off control, that is, after reaching the outlet water temperature, the compressor output is stabilized. When the outlet water temperature is higher than the set temperature, the compressor output power is increased. When this method is used, the compressor will switch back and forth between high and low loads or even start and stop, which results in high power consumption and greatly reduced service life.

[0023] In order to be able to understand the features and technical contents of the embodiments of the present disclosure in more detail, the implementation of the embodiments of the present disclosure is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The attached drawings are for reference only and are not used to limit the embodiments of the present disclosure. In the following technical description, for the convenience of explanation, a full understanding of the disclosed embodiments is provided through multiple details. However, one or more embodiments can still be implemented without these details. In other cases, to simplify the drawings, well-known structures and devices can be simplified for display.

[0024] The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the embodiments of the present disclosure and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the terms used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the embodiments of the present disclosure described herein. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions.

[0025] Unless otherwise stated, the term "plurality" means two or more.

[0026] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the character " / " indicates that the preceding and following objects are in an "or" relationship. For example, A / B indicates: A or B.

[0027] The term "and / or" is a description of the association relationship between objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B means: A or B, or, A and B.

[0028] The term "correspondence" may refer to an association relationship or a binding relationship. The correspondence between A and B means that there is an association relationship or a binding relationship between A and B.

[0029] When the water-cooled unit uses the compressor refrigerant to operate in the cooling mode, the refrigerant at a lower temperature exchanges heat with water in the heat exchanger, so that the outlet water temperature is lower. After the low-temperature outlet water enters the energy storage system, it exchanges heat with the energy storage system. After the water temperature rises, it enters the water-cooled unit for circulation. In this process, how to use appropriate control and adjustment methods to make the compressor output appropriate cooling capacity and ensure that the outlet water temperature of the water-cooled unit is close to the preset temperature is the key to controlling the water-cooled unit.

[0030] Combination Figure 1 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for controlling a water cooling unit, comprising:

[0031] S101, when the water cooling unit starts to start, the processor obtains the current outlet water temperature.

[0032] S102, the processor calculates a first temperature difference between the current outlet water temperature and a preset temperature.

[0033] S103: The processor controls the refrigeration capacity of the compressor according to the change trend of the first temperature difference value.

[0034] A first temperature sensor is provided at the water outlet of the water cooling unit. The first temperature sensor is in communication with the processor. When the water cooling unit is started and the compressor is turned on, the real-time water outlet temperature is obtained through the first temperature sensor. A first temperature difference between the current water outlet temperature and the preset temperature is calculated.

[0035] When the compressor starts to run, the first temperature difference between the outlet water temperature and the preset temperature is large. Therefore, it is necessary to control the compressor to output an appropriate cooling capacity. As the system runs, the first temperature difference will become smaller and smaller. When the first temperature difference approaches 0, the cooling capacity of the compressor will be very small. At this time, the cooling capacity output by the compressor will be greatly reduced, and the first temperature difference will gradually increase. This reciprocating process will eventually form a false balance, that is, the outlet water temperature will run stably at a temperature higher than the preset temperature, and will never reach the preset temperature. It can be seen that the changing trend of the first temperature difference can reflect the change in the cooling capacity of the compressor. Therefore, according to the changing trend of the first temperature difference, that is, the increasing trend or decreasing trend, the cooling capacity of the compressor is controlled. The cooling capacity output by the compressor is matched with the changing trend of the first temperature difference.

[0036] In the disclosed embodiment, when the water cooling unit starts to operate, the outlet water temperature is monitored in real time. The first temperature difference between the current outlet water temperature and the preset temperature is calculated. Then, based on the change trend of the first temperature difference value, the refrigeration capacity output by the compressor is controlled. In this way, the refrigeration capacity of the compressor matches the first temperature difference, so that the outlet water temperature is close to or even maintained at the preset temperature. Thereby reducing the deviation of the outlet water temperature of the water cooling unit to ensure the high-efficiency operation of the energy storage system.

[0037] Combination Figure 2 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for controlling a water cooling unit, comprising:

[0038] S101, when the water cooling unit starts to start, the processor obtains the current outlet water temperature.

[0039] S102, the processor calculates a first temperature difference between the current outlet water temperature and a preset temperature.

[0040] S113: When the first temperature difference value shows a decreasing trend, the processor controls the refrigeration capacity of the compressor according to the first temperature difference value.

[0041] S123: When the changing trend of the first temperature difference value is an increasing trend, the processor controls the cooling capacity of the compressor according to each temperature difference value at a plurality of preset moments and an initial moment.

[0042] When controlling the refrigeration capacity of the compressor system, it is divided into a first control scheme and a second control scheme.

[0043] First control scheme: when the first temperature difference value shows a decreasing trend, it indicates that the outlet water temperature is gradually approaching the preset temperature. At this time, the refrigeration capacity of the compressor is controlled according to the first temperature difference value.

[0044] Second control scheme: When the trend of the first temperature difference value changes from a decreasing trend to an increasing trend, it means that the outlet water temperature changes from being close to the preset temperature to being far away from the preset temperature again. In order to make the outlet water temperature close to or even maintain the preset temperature, the temperature difference between multiple preset moments and the initial moment is calculated at this time. The refrigeration capacity of the compressor is then controlled based on these temperature difference values. In this way, the refrigeration capacity output by the compressor system will not drop significantly, so that the outlet water temperature can quickly reach the preset temperature and maintain dynamic balance.

[0045] According to the variation trend of the first temperature difference, the refrigeration capacity output by the compressor is alternately controlled according to the first control scheme and the second control scheme.

[0046] In this way, the compressor is controlled to output an appropriate cooling capacity, thereby reducing the difference between the outlet water temperature and the preset temperature.

[0047] Optionally, when the processor controls the refrigeration capacity of the compressor according to the first temperature difference value, the refrigeration capacity of the compressor is calculated according to formula (1):

[0048] Q c =K*E n *Q w Formula (1)

[0049] Among them, Q c is the refrigeration capacity of the compressor. K is a constant. The larger K is, the more sensitive the refrigeration capacity of the compressor is. n is the first temperature difference, E n =T n -T 0 , T n is the outlet water temperature corresponding to the current moment, that is, the current outlet water temperature, T 0 Here, E n When substituting into formula (1), only the numerical value is entered without the unit. w The refrigeration capacity of the compressor to maintain steady-state operation of the chiller can be measured before the unit leaves the factory.

[0050] If Q is calculated according to formula (1) c Greater than Q max , then the compressor is controlled to Q max Run. Among them, Q max is the maximum cooling capacity of the compressor.

[0051] Optionally, the processor controls the refrigeration capacity of the compressor according to each temperature difference value between a plurality of preset moments and an initial moment, including:

[0052] The processor calculates the sum of the temperature difference values ​​between the plurality of preset moments and the initial moment.

[0053] The processor controls the refrigeration capacity of the compressor according to the sum of the temperature differences.

[0054] To set multiple preset times: 1 ,t 2 ,…,t n-1 ,t n . Get the outlet water temperature corresponding to these preset times: T 1 , T 2 ,…,T n-1 , T n .

[0055] Calculate the temperature difference between the outlet water temperature at the preset time and the preset temperature: E 1 =T 1 -T 0 、E 2 =T 2-T 0 ,..., E n-1 = T n-1 -T 0 , E n = T n -T 0 .

[0056] Calculate the sum of each temperature difference value: ΣE i = E 1 + E 2 +... + E n-1 + E n .

[0057] Calculate the refrigeration capacity of the compressor according to formula (2):

[0058] Q c = K i * ΣE i * Q w Formula (2)

[0059] Wherein, K i is a constant. The larger K i , the more sensitive the adjustment of the refrigeration capacity of the compressor is.

[0060] Set K i < K. This is because: The first control scheme is the control logic when the outlet water temperature differs greatly from the preset temperature, and the refrigeration capacity needs to be adjusted quickly. The larger K is, the more sensitive the system adjustment is. While the second control scheme is that the outlet water temperature differs little from the preset temperature, that is, the compensation control at the end, and the calculated ΣEi is a sum value. Therefore, K i should be smaller than K, and the adjustment does not need to be too sensitive.

[0061] When substituting ΣE i into formula (2), only substitute the numerical value without the unit.

[0062] Combined with Figure 3 as shown, the present disclosure embodiment provides another method for controlling a water-cooled chiller, including:

[0063] S101. When the water-cooled chiller starts, the processor obtains the current outlet water temperature.

[0064] S102. The processor calculates the first temperature difference value between the current outlet water temperature and the preset temperature.

[0065] S103. The processor controls the refrigeration capacity of the compressor according to the change trend of the first temperature difference value.

[0066] S104. While executing S103, the processor obtains the inlet water temperature.

[0067] S105: The processor determines the temperature change trend of the energy storage system according to the inlet water temperature.

[0068] S106: The processor adjusts the refrigeration capacity of the compressor according to the temperature change trend.

[0069] When the energy storage system is relatively stable, the first control scheme and the second control scheme are used alternately to keep the outlet water temperature stable. However, when the heat dissipation of the energy storage system fluctuates greatly, this control method will have a lag, causing the outlet water temperature of the water cooling unit to lag behind the temperature change of the energy storage system.

[0070] Therefore, in the process of alternately controlling the first control scheme and the second control scheme, the inlet water temperature is obtained by the second temperature sensor arranged at the water inlet end of the water cooling unit. According to the inlet water temperature, the temperature change trend of the energy storage system is predicted in advance. Then, according to the change trend of the energy storage temperature, the refrigeration capacity output by the compressor is adjusted. Thus, the outlet water temperature of the water cooling unit is close to or stabilized at the preset temperature.

[0071] Combination Figure 4 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides another method for controlling a water cooling unit, comprising:

[0072] S101, when the water cooling unit starts to start, the processor obtains the current outlet water temperature.

[0073] S102, the processor calculates a first temperature difference between the current outlet water temperature and a preset temperature.

[0074] S103: The processor controls the refrigeration capacity of the compressor according to the change trend of the first temperature difference value.

[0075] S104: The processor obtains the inlet water temperature while executing S103.

[0076] S115, the processor calculates the difference between the inlet water temperatures corresponding to adjacent preset moments.

[0077] S125: The processor determines the temperature change trend of the energy storage system according to the difference in the inlet water temperature.

[0078] S106: The processor adjusts the refrigeration capacity of the compressor according to the temperature change trend.

[0079] To set multiple preset times: 1 ,t 2 ,…,t n-1 ,t n . Get the water inlet temperature corresponding to these preset times: T 进1 , T 进2 ,…,T 进n-1 , T 进n .

[0080] Calculate the temperature difference values of the inlet water temperature corresponding to adjacent preset times respectively: M 1 = T 进2 - T 进1 , M 2 = T 进3 - T 进2 , …, M n-2 = T 进n-1 - T 进n-2 , M n-1 = T 进n - T 进n-1 .

[0081] According to formula (3), calculate the sum value ΣM of the temperature difference values of the inlet water temperature for a certain period of time i 进i :

[0082] ΣM 进i = (T 进n - T 进n-1 ) + (T 进n-1 - T 进n-2 ) + … + (T 进i-1 - T 进i ) Formula (3)

[0083] If ΣM 进i ≥ X (X is a constant), determine that the temperature change trend of the energy storage system is large fluctuations. If ΣM 进i < X, determine that the temperature change trend of the energy storage system is small fluctuations.

[0084] Then, according to the temperature change trend, adjust the refrigeration capacity of the compressor. Optionally, if it is determined that the temperature change trend is large fluctuations, it is necessary to increase the refrigeration capacity of the compressor to match the temperature change of the energy storage system. Therefore, at this time, control the compressor to operate at the maximum refrigeration capacity Q max .

[0085] Until ΣM 进i < X, then control the compressor to operate according to the first control scheme and the second control scheme.

[0086] If it is determined that the temperature change trend is small fluctuations, control the compressor to keep the current refrigeration capacity unchanged.

[0087] Combined with Figure 5 shown, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide another method for controlling a water-cooled unit, including:

[0088] S501, when the energy storage system is started, the processor obtains the outlet water temperature at this time.

[0089] S502, the processor calculates the second temperature difference value between the outlet water temperature at this time and the preset temperature.

[0090] S503: When the second temperature difference is greater than or equal to zero, the processor controls the water cooling unit to start.

[0091] S504: The processor obtains the current outlet water temperature.

[0092] S505: The processor calculates a first temperature difference between the current outlet water temperature and a preset temperature.

[0093] S506: The processor controls the refrigeration capacity of the compressor according to the change trend of the first temperature difference value.

[0094] When the energy storage system is started but the water cooling unit is not started, determine the timing of starting the water cooling unit. Obtain the outlet water temperature at this time, and calculate the second temperature difference between the outlet water temperature at this time and the preset temperature. Determine whether to control the water cooling unit to start according to the second temperature difference. If the second temperature difference is less than zero, it means that the outlet water temperature is lower than the preset temperature. At this time, the water cooling unit does not start refrigeration. If the second temperature difference is greater than or equal to zero, control the water cooling unit to start.

[0095] In this way, when the water cooling unit is not started, the difference between the outlet water temperature and the preset temperature is used to determine whether it is necessary to control the water cooling unit to start refrigeration in order to provide sufficient cooling capacity for the energy storage system.

[0096] The water outlet / water inlet temperature in the embodiments of the present disclosure refers to the water outlet / water inlet temperature of cooling water.

The acquisition module 61 is configured to acquire the current outlet water temperature when the water cooling unit starts to start. The calculation module 61 is configured to calculate a first temperature difference between the current outlet water temperature and a preset temperature. The control module 63 is configured to control the refrigeration capacity of the compressor according to the change trend of the first temperature difference.

[0098] By using the device for controlling the water cooling unit provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the water cooling unit starts to operate, the outlet water temperature is monitored in real time. The first temperature difference between the current outlet water temperature and the preset temperature is calculated. Then, based on the change trend of the first temperature difference value, the refrigeration capacity output by the compressor is controlled. In this way, the refrigeration capacity of the compressor matches the first temperature difference, so that the outlet water temperature is close to or even maintained at the preset temperature. Thereby reducing the deviation of the outlet water temperature of the water cooling unit to ensure the high-efficiency operation of the energy storage system.
