Description

[0002] Traditional domestic and commercial hot water usage is concentrated in a specific timeframe, with the highest water consumption during peak hours and lower consumption during off-peak hours.

For example, cities requiring a peak-to-valley difference rate exceeding 40% have a peak-to-valley price ratio of no less than 4:1, while other cities require a ratio of no less than 3:1. Peak-hour prices are often higher than 20% above peak-hour prices. Existing traditional hot water systems use level switches for water replenishment, meaning water is added and heated only as needed.

[0026] This invention provides a time-sharing temperature and frequency control method for a closed-loop pressurized hot water system. The closed-loop pressurized hot water system includes a heating unit and a heat storage unit. The heating unit includes a heat pump unit for heating liquid. The time-sharing temperature and frequency control method of this embodiment includes: acquiring the current ambient temperature; during off-peak electricity periods, controlling the operating frequency of the heat pump unit according to the ambient temperature and a first heat pump frequency control model to store heat in the heat storage unit until the liquid in the heat storage unit reaches the target temperature.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a closed-loop pressurized hot water system according to an embodiment of the present invention. The closed-loop pressurized hot water system of this embodiment includes a heating unit 100 and a heat storage unit 200. The heating unit 100 includes a heat pump host 110 for heating liquid and a heating water tank 120. The heat storage unit 200 includes a first liquid storage module 210, a second liquid storage module 220, and a third liquid storage module 230 connected in series. The first liquid storage module 210 and the third liquid storage module 230 are respectively disposed at the beginning and end of the heat storage unit 200. The heat pump host 110 can transport the heated liquid to the heating water tank 120. The heating water tank 120 is connected to the first liquid storage module 210 through a connecting pipe, so that at least a portion of the liquid in the heating water tank 120 can enter the first liquid storage module 210. The hot water system of this application adopts a closed-loop pressurized hot water system, which can reduce water temperature fluctuations and improve user comfort compared to traditional open hot water systems.

[0028] Further, see Figure 2 , Figure 2This invention illustrates a time-sharing temperature and frequency control method for a closed-loop pressurized hot water system according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method includes: acquiring the current ambient temperature; during off-peak hours, controlling the operating frequency of the heat pump host 110 based on the ambient temperature and a first heat pump frequency control model to store heat in the heat storage unit 200 until the liquid in the heat storage unit 200 reaches the target temperature; and during non-off-peak hours, controlling the operating frequency of the heat pump host 110 based on the ambient temperature and a second heat pump frequency control model to supplement heat to the heat storage unit 200. It is understood that off-peak hours may vary in different regions, and those skilled in the art can flexibly adjust the time-sharing temperature and frequency control method of this embodiment for the closed-loop pressurized hot water system according to the peak and off-peak electricity pricing policies of their region.

[0029] Specifically, the first heat pump frequency control model includes: when T > t1, controlling the heat pump host 110 to operate in a first frequency range; when t1 > T > t2, controlling the heat pump host 110 to operate in a second frequency range; and when T < t2, controlling the heat pump host 110 to operate in a third frequency range, where T is the ambient temperature, t0 is the target temperature, t1 is the first preset temperature, t2 is the second preset temperature, t0 > t1 > t2, the third frequency range is higher than the second frequency range, and the second frequency range is higher than the first frequency range. Those skilled in the art can flexibly adjust the numerical ranges of the heat pump host 110 in the three frequency ranges. As an example, and not a limitation, the first frequency range is 30 to 60 Hz, the second frequency range is 60 to 90 Hz, and the third frequency range is 90 to 110 Hz.

[0030] As an example, and not a limitation, in some alternative implementations, during off-peak electricity periods, the target temperature t0 is the unit's set maximum temperature, i.e., the maximum temperature achievable by the closed-loop pressurized hot water system. The unit's set maximum temperature, the first preset temperature, and the second preset temperature are described below as specific values ​​for illustrative purposes. The target temperature t0 is the unit's set maximum temperature of 60°C, the first preset temperature t1 is 20°C, and the second preset temperature t2 is 0°C. In summer, when the ambient temperature T is greater than 20°C, during off-peak electricity periods, the heat pump unit 110 is controlled to operate within a first frequency range to store heat in the heat storage unit 200 until the liquid in the heat storage unit 200 reaches a temperature of 60°C. In spring and autumn, when the ambient temperature T is greater than 0°C and less than 20°C, the heat pump unit 110 is controlled to operate within a second frequency range to store heat in the heat storage unit 200 until the liquid in the heat storage unit 200 reaches a temperature of 60°C. In winter, when the ambient temperature T is less than 20℃, the heat pump unit 110 is controlled to operate within the second frequency range to store heat in the heat storage unit 200 until the liquid in the heat storage unit 200 reaches 60℃. It should be noted that t1 and t2 are interval control parameters set based on t0. With seasonal changes, the heat demand of customers in the closed-loop pressurized hot water system does not match the heat output of the unit, making it impossible to maximize energy efficiency under partial half-load operation. The time-sharing temperature and frequency control method for the closed-loop pressurized hot water system in this application embodiment can adjust the operating frequency of the variable frequency heat pump unit 110 according to the ambient temperature during off-peak hours, thereby controlling the hot water system through frequency control and maximizing energy efficiency.

[0031] Furthermore, the closed-loop pressurized hot water system also includes a water supply pipe 300 and a control component 130. The water supply pipe 300 is used to supply water to the heating unit 100 and / or the heat storage unit 200; the control component 130 is used to control whether the water supply pipe 300 supplies liquid to the heating unit 100. In this embodiment, the closed-loop pressurized hot water system can supply cold water to the end of the heat storage unit 200 through the water supply pipe 300, achieving separation of hot and cold water without affecting the hot water supply temperature. Compared to traditional hot water systems, it eliminates the need for immediate heating, enabling subsequent refined control.

[0032] Specifically, during off-peak electricity hours, the time-sharing temperature and frequency control method of the closed-loop pressurized hot water system can control the operating frequency of the heat pump host 110 to supplement the heat storage unit 200 based on the ambient temperature and the second heat pump frequency control model. The second heat pump frequency control model includes: when T > t1, controlling the heat pump host 110 to operate within a first frequency range; when t1 > T > t2, controlling the heat pump host 110 to operate within the first frequency range; and when T < t2, controlling the operating frequency of the heat pump host 110 using a preset heat pump frequency control method.

[0033] Furthermore, the target temperature includes the user-set target temperature and the unit's set maximum temperature. During off-peak hours, the operating frequency of the heat pump host 110 is controlled according to the ambient temperature and the first heat pump frequency control model to store heat in the heat storage unit 200 until the liquid in the heat storage unit 200 reaches the unit's set maximum temperature. The unit's set maximum temperature is the maximum target temperature that the closed-loop pressurized hot water system can achieve for heating. For example, 60℃, 80℃, etc., will not be listed here. During non-off-peak hours, the operating frequency of the heat pump host 110 is controlled according to the ambient temperature and the second heat pump frequency control model to supplement heat in the heat storage unit 200 until the liquid in the heat storage unit 200 is supplemented to the user-set target temperature. The user-set target temperature is the user-defined required temperature, and the specific value is flexibly set by the user, such as 50℃, 45℃, etc., will not be listed here.

[0034] To clearly describe this implementation, the user-set target temperature, first preset temperature, and second preset temperature are selected as specific values ​​for example description to facilitate understanding. The user-set target temperature t0 is 50°C, the first preset temperature t1 is 20°C, and the second preset temperature t2 is 0°C. In summer, when the ambient temperature T is greater than 20°C, during off-peak hours, the heat pump host 110 is controlled to operate within the first frequency range to supplement the heat storage unit 200 until the liquid in the heat storage unit 200 is heated to 50°C. In spring and autumn, when the ambient temperature T is greater than 0°C and less than 20°C, the heat pump host 110 is controlled to operate within the first frequency range to supplement the heat storage unit 200 until the liquid in the heat storage unit 200 is heated to 50°C. In winter, when the ambient temperature T is less than 20°C, the operating frequency of the heat pump host 110 is controlled using a preset heat pump frequency control mode to supplement the heat storage unit 200 until the liquid in the heat storage unit 200 is heated to 50°C.

[0035] Specifically, when T < t2, controlling the operating frequency of the heat pump host 110 using a preset heat pump frequency control method includes: obtaining the temperature T of the liquid in the heating water tank 120. a The temperature T of the liquid in the first liquid storage module 210 b The temperature T of the liquid in the second liquid storage module 220 c The temperature T of the liquid in the third liquid storage module 230 d In some alternative embodiments, the temperature T of the liquid inside the heating water tank 120 is obtained. a The temperature T of the liquid in the first liquid storage module 210 b The temperature T of the liquid in the second liquid storage module 220 c The temperature T of the liquid in the third liquid storage module 230 d The method is as follows: A first temperature sensor 121 is installed at the upper part of the heating water tank 120 to obtain the temperature T of the liquid in the heating water tank 120.a A second temperature sensor 211 is installed on the upper part of the first liquid storage module 210 to obtain the temperature T of the liquid inside the first liquid storage module 210. b A third temperature sensor 221 is installed in the middle of the second liquid storage module 220 to obtain the temperature T of the liquid inside the second liquid storage module 220. c A fourth temperature sensor 231 is installed at the lower part of the third liquid storage module 230 to obtain the temperature T of the liquid inside the third liquid storage module 230. d .

[0036] When T c When t > t3, this is a low-demand water zone, and the closed-loop pressurized hot water system is maintained at a constant temperature during the shutdown phase, keeping the heat pump unit 110 in a non-starting state; when t4 < T c When T ≤ t3, this is still a low-demand water zone, but user water consumption has increased slightly. The closed-loop pressurized hot water system is controlled in a low-frequency supplementary heating phase; specifically, the heat pump unit 110 is controlled to operate within the first frequency range. When T c ≤t4 and T b When T > t0, the user's water demand begins to gradually increase, entering the water demand period, and the heat pump unit 110 is controlled to operate in the second frequency range; when T b When the water consumption is less than t0, the user's water consumption increases rapidly, which is the high water demand period. The heat pump unit 110 is then controlled to operate within a third frequency range, where t0 is the target temperature, t3 is the third preset temperature, and t4 is the fourth preset temperature (t0 > t3 > t4). Further, as an example and not a limitation, t3 and t4 are interval control parameters set based on t0, where t4 = t0 - X, t3 = t0 - Y, X ∈ (8, 12), and Y ∈ (3, 7). The time-sharing temperature and frequency control method for the closed-loop pressurized hot water system according to this embodiment can divide the demand area according to the user's water demand and adjust the frequency of the variable frequency heat pump unit 110. By controlling the frequency, the closed-loop pressurized hot water system can be controlled, achieving a more energy-efficient closed-loop pressurized hot water system.

[0037] Furthermore, when T < t2, controlling the operating frequency of the heat pump host 110 using a preset heat pump frequency control method also includes: when the heat pump host 110 operates in the first frequency range, until T d >t0, keep the heat pump unit 110 in the off state; when the heat pump unit 110 is operating in the second frequency range, until T c >t4, control the heat pump unit 110 to operate in the first frequency range; when the heat pump unit 110 operates in the third frequency range, until T b >t0 and T a When the frequency is greater than t0, the heat pump host 110 is controlled to operate in the second frequency range.

[0038] In some optional embodiments, the heating water tank 120 is provided with a heating component 122, which is used to heat the liquid inside the heating water tank 120. Further, according to this embodiment, when T < t2, controlling the operating frequency of the heat pump host 110 using a preset heat pump frequency control method further includes: when T... b <t0 and T a When T > t0, the heat pump unit 110 is controlled to operate at the third frequency; when T b <t0 and T a When <t0, the heating component 122 is turned on, and the heat pump unit 110 is simultaneously controlled to operate at the third frequency; when T b >t0 and T a When T > t0, the heating component 122 is turned off, and the heat pump unit 110 is operated at the second frequency; when T c >t4 after which the heat pump host 110 is controlled to operate at the first frequency; when T d When the temperature exceeds t0, the heat pump unit 110 remains in a non-started state. This application achieves this by installing a heating component 122, which, at time T... b When the temperature is less than t0, the liquid is heated by the heat pump host 110 and the heating component 122 together to achieve rapid temperature rise.

[0039] Furthermore, the control component 130's control of whether the water supply line 300 supplies liquid to the heating unit 100 also includes: when T b <t0 and T a When the temperature is less than t0, the control component 130 controls the water supply pipe 300 to stop supplying liquid to the heating unit 100 until T... a When T > t0, the control component 130 controls the water supply pipe 300 to supply liquid to the heating unit 100. When T b <t0 and T a When the water demand period is less than t0, the water supply pipeline 300 stops supplying liquid to the heating unit 100 according to this embodiment. At the same time, the heat pump host 110 and the heating component 122 operate simultaneously, which can quickly heat the liquid, so that users can use hot water in a short time during peak water demand periods, providing users with a long-term and stable hot water supply.

[0040] Furthermore, the closed-loop pressurized hot water system also includes a water supply pipeline 500, a first liquid storage module 210 connected to a heating water tank 120 via a connecting pipeline, a water supply pipeline 500 connected to the connecting pipeline, and a water supply pipeline 500 connected to the outside for supplying water to customers; when T c When t > t3, the thermal storage unit 200 supplies liquid to the water supply pipeline 500; when t4 < T c When T ≤ t3, heating unit 100 supplies liquid to water supply pipe 500; when T c ≤t4 and T bWhen T > t0, heating unit 100 supplies liquid to water supply pipe 500; when T b <t0 and T a When T > t0, heating unit 100 supplies liquid to water supply pipe 500; when T b <t0 and T a When <t0, with the heating component 122 turned on and the heat pump unit 110 operating at the third frequency, the heat storage unit 200 supplies liquid to the water supply pipeline 500; when T b >t0 and T a When the temperature exceeds t0, the heating unit 100 supplies liquid to the water supply pipeline 500. In this embodiment, the water supply pipeline 500 is connected to the connecting pipeline, which can reduce the number of valves, simplify the system control method, and save costs.

[0041] In some optional embodiments, the closed-loop pressurized hot water system of this application further includes a return water pipe 400, which is connected to the replenishment water pipe 300 at a junction 410. The return water pipe 400 can be used to supply water to the heating unit 100 and / or the heat storage unit 200. Furthermore, the return water pipe 400 is equipped with a return water pump and a one-way valve. The one-way valve is located between the return water pump and the junction 410 and is used to control the unidirectional flow of liquid from the return water pump to the junction 410. The replenishment water pipe 300 is connected to the tap water supply. When a user draws hot water from the heating tank 120 and / or the heat storage unit 200 of the closed-loop pressurized hot water system, water needs to be replenished to the heating tank 120 or the heat storage unit 200. The return water pump is turned on when the user requests it, and after being turned on, it mixes with the tap water and is divided into two streams entering the heat storage unit 200 and the heating unit 100. The return water pipe 400 can recycle unused hot water from the user end to the closed pressurized hot water system of this application embodiment, which is energy-saving and environmentally friendly.

[0042] The closed-loop pressurized hot water system according to an embodiment of the present invention has two operating modes. The first operating mode is an energy-saving mode, which acquires the ambient temperature and, during off-peak hours, controls the operating frequency of the heat pump host 110 to store heat in the heat storage unit 200 based on the ambient temperature and a first heat pump frequency control model, until the liquid in the heat storage unit 200 has reached the target temperature. During non-off-peak hours, the operating frequency of the heat pump host 110 is controlled based on the ambient temperature and a second heat pump frequency control model to supplement heat to the heat storage unit 200. This mode enables time-segmented temperature and frequency control for heat storage, reducing the operation of the closed-loop pressurized hot water system during off-peak and peak electricity periods, saving electricity costs, and is highly economical.

[0043] The second operating mode is the high-efficiency mode, which can control the operating frequency of the heat pump host 110 according to a preset heat pump frequency control method, and obtain the temperature T of the liquid in the heating water tank 120. a The temperature T of the liquid in the first liquid storage module 210 bThe temperature T of the liquid in the second liquid storage module 220 c The temperature T of the liquid in the third liquid storage module 230 d The operating frequency of the heat pump host 110 is controlled according to the third and fourth preset temperatures. By dividing the heat storage unit 200 into three demand zones, the current user demand is determined by the temperature of each liquid storage module, and the frequency of the heat pump host 110 is adjusted according to the user demand. This achieves frequency control for the closed pressurized hot water system, reducing the frequent start-stop of the heat pump host 110 and avoiding the problems of slow water temperature rise and low system operating efficiency, thus achieving environmental protection and energy saving.
