Therefore, the features defined with "first", "second" can explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.

For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances. In addition, when describing the pipeline, the "connected" and "connected" used in the present application have the meaning of conducting. The specific meaning needs to be understood in combination with the context.

[0036] In the present embodiments, the word "exemplary" or "for example" is used to mean serving as an example, instance, or illustration. Any embodiment or design described herein as "exemplary" or "for example" is not necessarily to be construed as preferred or advantageous over other embodiments or designs. Rather, use of the word example or of the words such as "example" is intended to present concepts in a concrete manner.

[0037] At present, the road surface is easy to accumulate snow and ice in winter, which greatly affects normal traffic. The current snow melting methods mainly include salt snow removal, conductive concrete, heating cable and ground source heat pump, etc. However, the existing snow melting methods have certain defects and cannot prevent the road surface from icing. In addition, high-temperature weather in summer also increases the number of vehicle tire burst accidents, and melts asphalt pavement or cracks cement pavement, etc.

[0038] Based on the above, the present embodiments provide a road temperature control system and a control method thereof. The road temperature control system can obtain a road surface temperature t1, a water tank temperature and a first heat load Q1 of the water tank. In the case that the road surface temperature t1 is less than a first preset temperature, the weather condition within a first preset time period is obtained, and the heat required to prevent the road surface from icing, i.e., a second heat load Q2, is determined. In the case that a first difference between the first heat load Q1 and the second heat load Q2 is less than or equal to a first preset value, it is indicated that the heat of the water in the water tank is sufficient to preheat the road surface. At this time, the first variable frequency water pump is started, and the first variable frequency water pump is adjusted according to the road surface temperature t1 and the water tank temperature, so as to preheat the road surface by using the water tank temperature. It is ensured that the road surface is preheated before low-temperature weather comes, thereby achieving the effect of preventing the road surface from icing.

[0039] As shown in Figure 1 The road temperature control system provided by the present embodiments can include a buried pipe device 101, a first variable frequency water pump 102, a photovoltaic power generation and storage device 103, an electric heating device 104, a water tank 105, a second variable frequency water pump 106, an air source heat pump unit 107, a road surface temperature sensor 108, and a water tank temperature sensor 109. The water tank 105 is placed under the road surface.

[0040] In some embodiments, the buried pipe device 101 includes a water inlet and a water outlet, and is used to circulate the water in the water tank 105 to heat or cool the road. For example, in high-temperature weather, the buried pipe device 101 circulates the low-temperature water in the water tank to cool the road.

[0041] In some embodiments, the working principle of the first variable frequency water pump 102 and the second variable frequency water pump 106 is to change the rotating speed of the water pump by using a frequency converter to adjust the flow rate and pressure of the water pump. The frequency converter generally has a closed-loop control function, which can automatically control the operation according to the pressure signal to achieve constant pressure water supply.

[0042] In some embodiments, the working principle of the photovoltaic power storage device 103 is to directly convert light energy into electrical energy by using the photovoltaic effect of the semiconductor interface, and store the electrical energy in the power storage device.

[0044] In some embodiments, the working principle of the electric heating device 104 is to convert electrical energy into heat energy by using the Joule effect of the resistance heating current to heat the object.

[0045] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the electric heating device 104 is located at the connection of the air source heat pump unit 107 to the water tank 105.

[0047] In some embodiments, the air source heat pump unit 107 can be composed of a compressor, a water pump, a liquid storage tank, a filter, a heat exchanger, an axial flow fan, a heat preservation water tank, an electronic expansion valve and an electronic controller, etc. The working principle of the air source heat pump unit 107 is to use the inverse Carnot principle to absorb a large amount of low-temperature heat energy in the air, and convert it into high-temperature heat energy by compression of the compressor. The working principle of refrigeration is to use the high-temperature refrigerant vapor generated by the compressor, and the refrigerant vapor condenses into liquid after releasing heat in the condenser, and the condensed liquid absorbs heat in the evaporator.

[0048] In some embodiments, the working principle of the sensor 108 and the water tank temperature sensor 109 is to convert temperature into available output signals by using the law that various physical properties of substances change with temperature.

[0064] In some embodiments, the controller 110 can be further configured to: in a case that the road surface temperature t1 is greater than or equal to the fourth preset temperature, control the plurality of air source heat pump units, the second variable frequency water pump and the first variable frequency water pump to be in an off state.

[0066] In some embodiments, the controller 110 can be further configured to: acquire the road surface temperature t1 detected by the road surface temperature sensor and the water tank temperature detected by the water tank temperature sensor, and determine the first heat load Q1 of the water tank according to the water tank temperature.

[0067] From the above, in the method of the embodiments of the present application, the road surface temperature t1, the water tank temperature and the first heat load Q1 of the water tank are obtained, in the case where the road surface temperature t1 is less than the first preset temperature, the weather condition within the first preset time period is obtained, and the heat required for preventing the road surface from icing, i.e., the second heat load Q2, is determined. In the case where the first difference between the first heat load Q1 and the second heat load Q2 is less than or equal to the first preset value, it is indicated that the water in the water tank is sufficient to preheat the road surface, at this time, the first variable frequency water pump is started, and the first variable frequency water pump is adjusted according to the road surface temperature t1 and the water tank temperature, and the water tank temperature is used to preheat the road surface. In the case where the first difference is greater than the first preset value, it is indicated that the heat of the water in the water tank is insufficient to preheat the road surface, at this time, the second variable frequency pump is started, and the heating mode of part of the air source heat pump units is controlled to start, to heat the water in the water tank, and then the water in the water tank is used to preheat the road surface. In the case where the first difference is greater than the second preset value, it is indicated that the heat provided by part of the air source heat pump units is insufficient to preheat the road surface, at this time, the heating mode of the remaining air source heat pump units is controlled to start, to preheat the road surface. It is ensured that the road surface is preheated before the arrival of low-temperature weather, and the effect of preventing the road surface from icing is achieved.

[0068] Based on the above road temperature control system, as shown in Figure 5 The embodiments of the present application provide a control method of a road temperature control system, which comprises the following steps:

[0069] S101, obtaining a road surface temperature t1, a first water tank temperature T1 and a first heat load Q1 of the water tank.

[0070] The first heat load Q1 represents the heat provided by the water tank heating, and the water tank is placed under the road surface.

[0071] In some embodiments, the road surface temperature t1 detected by the road surface temperature sensor and the water tank temperature detected by the water tank temperature sensor are obtained, and the first heat load Q1 of the water tank is determined according to the water tank temperature.

[0072] S102, in the case where the road surface temperature t1 is less than the first preset temperature, the second heat load Q2 is determined according to the weather condition within the first preset time period.

[0073] The weather condition represents one or more of the ambient temperature, the relative humidity and the snowfall amount of the location where the road surface is located.

[0074] The second heat load Q2 represents the heat for preventing the road surface from icing.

[0075] For example, in the case where the road surface temperature t1 is less than the first preset temperature, the ambient temperature, the relative humidity and the snowfall amount of the location where the road is located within the first preset time period are obtained, and the heat required for preventing the road surface from icing is determined.

[0076] S103, determine a difference between the first heat load Q1 and the second heat load Q2 as a first difference.

[0077] In some embodiments, the first difference is a value of the second heat load Q2 minus the first heat load Q1.

[0078] For example, if the first difference is ΔQ, the first heat load Q1 is Q1, and the second heat load Q2 is Q2, then the first difference ΔQ = Q2 - Q1.

[0079] S104, in the case where the first difference is greater than a first preset value, start the first variable frequency water pump to circulate the water in the water tank in the underground pipe device to heat the road surface.

[0080] In some embodiments, the first difference is a value of the first heat load Q1 minus the second heat load Q2.

[0081] In some embodiments, the first variable frequency water pump is adjusted according to the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 to control the circulation flow rate of the water in the water tank in the underground pipe device, and the greater the difference, the faster the circulation flow rate of the water in the water tank in the underground pipe device.

[0082] In some embodiments, the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 is a value of the first water tank temperature T1 minus the road surface temperature t1.

[0083] As can be seen from the above, in the above method of the embodiments of the present application, the water tank is placed under the road surface, which facilitates heat preservation of the water in the water tank; in the case where the difference between the first heat load Q1 of the water tank and the second heat load Q2 for preventing the road surface from freezing within a first preset time period is greater than a first preset value, at this time, the heat of the water in the water tank is sufficient to preheat the road surface, the first variable frequency water pump is started, and the heat of the water in the water tank is used to heat the road surface, thereby achieving the effect of preventing the road surface from freezing and reducing energy consumption. The first variable frequency water pump is adjusted according to the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 to control the flow rate of the water in the water tank in the underground pipe device, which can enhance the heating effect on the road surface.

[0084] In the method provided in the embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 6 In the case where the road surface temperature t1 is less than a first preset temperature, the method further includes the following steps.

[0085] S201, in the case where the first difference is less than or equal to a first preset value and greater than a second preset value, start the first variable frequency water pump to circulate the water in the water tank in the underground pipe device to heat the road surface.

[0086] S202, control a first preset number of air source heat pump units to start a heating mode.

[0087] In some embodiments, in a case where the first difference is less than or equal to the second preset value, the second preset number of air source heat pump units are controlled to start the heating mode.

[0088] The first preset number is less than the second preset number.

[0089] S203, start the second variable frequency water pump to circulate the water in the water tank in the air source heat pump unit to heat the water in the water tank.

[0090] In some embodiments, the second variable frequency water pump is adjusted according to the difference between the ambient temperature t2 and the first water tank temperature T1 to control the circulation flow rate of the water in the water tank in the air source heat pump unit, and the greater the difference, the greater the circulation flow rate of the water in the water tank in the air source heat pump unit.

[0091] From the above, in the above method of the embodiments of the present application, in a case where the first difference is less than or equal to the first preset value and greater than the second preset value, the first preset number of air source heat pump units are controlled to start the heating mode to heat the water in the water tank. In a case where the first difference is less than or equal to the first preset value, i.e. the heat provided by the water in the water tank is insufficient to prevent the road surface from icing, part of the air source heat pump units are used to heat the water in the water tank to achieve the effect of preventing the road surface from icing. In a case where the first difference is less than or equal to the second preset value, it indicates that the heat provided by part of the air source heat pump units is insufficient to prevent the road surface from icing, at this time, more air source heat pump units are started to heat the water in the water tank to strengthen the effect of preventing the road surface from icing. At the same time, controlling different numbers of air source heat pump units to preheat the road surface in different cases can avoid waste of energy.

[0092] In the method provided in the embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 7 In a case where the road surface temperature t1 is less than the first preset temperature, the method further includes the following steps.

[0093] S301, after the first variable frequency water pump is started for a first preset time, the second water tank temperature T2 after the first preset time is obtained.

[0094] S302, according to the second water tank temperature T2, the third heat load Q3 is determined, and the second difference between the second heat load Q2 and the third heat load Q3 is determined.

[0095] In some embodiments, the second difference is the value of the third heat load Q3 minus the second heat load Q2.

[0096] S303, in a case where the second difference is greater than the second preset value and less than or equal to the first preset value, the third preset number of air source heat pump units are turned off.

[0097] The third preset number is less than the second preset number.

[0098] For example, a second preset number of air source heat pump units are opened. If the second difference after the first preset time period is greater than the second preset value and less than or equal to the first preset value, a third preset number of air source heat pump units are closed.

[0099] In some embodiments, in the case where the second difference is less than or equal to the second preset value, the second variable frequency water pump is kept open, and the first preset number of air source heat pump units are controlled to be in a heating state according to the difference between the ambient temperature and the water tank temperature.

[0100] In the case where the second difference is greater than the first preset value, the second variable frequency water pump is closed, and the plurality of air source heat pump units are controlled to be in a closed state.

[0101] For example, a first preset number of air source heat pump units are opened. If the second difference after the first preset time period is greater than the first preset value, the second variable frequency water pump and all air source heat pump units are closed.

[0102] From the above, in the above method of the embodiments of the present application, the second water tank temperature T2 after the first variable frequency water pump is opened for the first preset time period is used to determine the third heat load Q3, and the second heat load Q2 and the third heat load Q3 are used to determine the second difference. In the case where the second difference is greater than the second preset value and less than or equal to the first preset value, it is indicated that part of the air source heat pump units are closed, which can also prevent the road surface from icing. At this time, the third preset number of air source heat pump units are closed. In the case where the second difference is greater than the first preset value, it is indicated that the heat of the water in the water tank is sufficient to preheat the road surface. At this time, all air source heat pump units and the second variable frequency water pump can be closed. Timely closing of the excessive air source heat pump units avoids waste of energy.

[0103] In some embodiments, in the case where the road surface temperature t1 is greater than the second preset temperature and less than or equal to the third preset temperature, the first variable frequency water pump is opened to circulate the water in the water tank in the underground pipe device to reduce the road surface temperature t1.

[0104] For example, it is assumed that the second preset temperature is 30℃, and the road surface temperature t1 of the road A is 35℃. At this time, the road surface temperature t1 is greater than the second preset temperature, and the first variable frequency water pump is opened to circulate the water in the water tank in the underground pipe device to reduce the road surface temperature t1.

[0105] In some embodiments, the first variable frequency water pump is adjusted according to the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 to control the circulation flow rate of the water in the water tank in the underground pipe device. The larger the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1, the higher the gear of the first variable frequency water pump, so as to control the circulation flow rate of the water in the water tank in the underground pipe device to be faster.

[0106] The difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 is the value of the road surface temperature t1 minus the first water tank temperature T1.

[0107] For example, the first variable frequency water pump has high, medium and low gears, the high gear is the fastest, when the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 is greater than 15℃, the first variable frequency water pump is started at high gear; when the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 is greater than 5℃ and less than or equal to 15℃, the first variable frequency water pump is started at medium gear; when the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 is less than or equal to 5℃, the first variable frequency water pump is started at low gear.

[0108] From the above, in the above method of the embodiments of the present application, when the road surface temperature t1 is greater than the second preset temperature and less than or equal to the third preset temperature, it indicates that the road surface needs to be cooled down, at this time, the first variable frequency water pump is started, and the temperature of the water in the water tank is used to cool down the road surface, which can avoid accidents such as tire burst caused by high temperature of the road surface. At the same time, according to the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1, the first variable frequency water pump is adjusted, which can improve the cooling efficiency of the road surface.

[0109] The above method provided by the embodiments of the present application is further described below according to the content shown in the following table. Figure 8

[0110] First, the road surface temperature t1, the first water tank temperature T1 and the first heat load Q1 of the water tank are obtained, and when the road surface temperature t1 is less than the first preset temperature, the second heat load Q2 is determined according to the weather condition within the first preset time.

[0111] Secondly, the difference between the first heat load Q1 and the second heat load Q2 is determined as the first difference, and it is determined whether the first difference is greater than the first preset difference: when the first difference is greater than the first preset value, the first variable frequency water pump is started to circulate the water in the water tank in the underground pipe device to heat the road surface; when the first difference is less than or equal to the first preset value, it is determined whether the first difference is greater than the second preset value.

[0112] Further, when the first difference is greater than the second preset value and less than or equal to the first preset value, the second variable frequency water pump is started to circulate the water in the water tank in the underground pipe device, and the first preset number of air source heat pump units are started; when the first difference is less than or equal to the second preset value, the second variable frequency water pump is started to circulate the water in the water tank in the underground pipe device, and the second preset number of air source heat pump units are started.

[0113] ​Further, a second water tank temperature T2 after the first preset time length is obtained after the first variable frequency water pump is started for the first preset time length, a third heat load Q3 is determined according to the second water tank temperature T2, and a second difference between the second heat load Q2 and the third heat load Q3 is determined.

[0114] Further, it is confirmed whether the second difference is greater than a second preset value: in the case that the second difference is less than or equal to the second preset value, the second variable frequency water pump is kept on, and the first preset number of air source heat pump units are controlled to be in a heating state according to the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the water tank temperature; in the case that the second difference is greater than the second preset value, it is confirmed whether the second difference is greater than a first preset value.

[0115] Further, in the case that the second difference is greater than the second preset value and less than or equal to the first preset value, the second variable frequency water pump is kept on, and the third preset number of air source heat pump units are turned off; in the case that the second difference is greater than the first preset value, the second variable frequency water pump is turned off, and the plurality of air source heat pump units are controlled to be in an off state; wherein the third preset number of air source heat pump units represents a part of the air source heat pump units that are in the heating state.

[0116] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 1, the method provided by the embodiments of the present application further includes the following S401-S403. Figure 9

[0117] S401, in the case that the road surface temperature t1 is greater than a third preset temperature, the first variable frequency water pump is started to circulate the water in the water tank in the underground pipe device to reduce the road surface temperature t1.

[0118] Wherein, the third preset temperature is greater than the second preset temperature.

[0119] In some embodiments, the first variable frequency water pump is adjusted according to the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 to control the circulation flow rate of the water in the water tank in the underground pipe device, and the higher the gear of the first variable frequency water pump, the faster the circulation flow rate of the water in the underground water tank in the underground pipe device is controlled.

[0120] Wherein, the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 is the value of the road surface temperature t1 minus the first water tank temperature T1.

[0121] S402, a fourth preset number of air source heat pump units are controlled to be in a cooling mode.

[0122] In some embodiments, after the fourth preset number of air source heat pump units are in the cooling mode, the number of air source heat pump units in the cooling mode is increased or decreased according to the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 to adjust the cooling effect on the water in the water tank.​

[0123] For example, 29 air source heat pump units are opened in the cooling mode, but the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 is 15°C after the first preset time, and the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 is 12°C before the first preset time. At this time, it is indicated that 29 air source heat pump units opened in the cooling mode are insufficient to effectively cool the road surface, and 5 air source heat pump units are opened in the cooling mode to improve the cooling effect of the water in the water tank.

[0124] S403, open the second variable frequency water pump to circulate the water in the water tank in the air source heat pump unit to reduce the temperature of the water in the water tank.

[0125] In some embodiments, the second variable frequency water pump is adjusted according to the difference between the ambient temperature t2 and the first water tank temperature T1 to control the circulation flow rate of the water in the water tank in the air source heat pump unit. The greater the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1, the higher the gear of the first variable frequency water pump, and the faster the circulation flow rate of the water in the buried water tank in the buried pipe device.

[0126] Wherein, the ambient temperature t2 represents the ambient temperature detected by the air source heat pump unit.

[0127] For example, the second variable frequency water pump has one gear, two gears and three gears. The speed of the first gear is the fastest, the speed of the third gear is the slowest, and the speed of the second gear is between the first gear and the third gear. When the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 is greater than 15°C, the first variable frequency water pump is opened at the first gear; when the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the water tank temperature is greater than 5°C and less than or equal to 15°C, the first variable frequency water pump is opened at the second gear; and when the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the water tank temperature is less than or equal to 5°C, the first variable frequency water pump is opened at the third gear.

[0128] In some embodiments, in the case that the road surface temperature t1 is less than or equal to the second preset temperature, the plurality of air source heat pump units, the second variable frequency water pump and the first variable frequency water pump are controlled to be in the closed state.

[0129] For example, if the second preset temperature is 30°C, after cooling the road surface of road A for 40 min, it is detected that the road surface temperature t1 is 25°C, i.e., the road surface temperature t1 of road A is less than the second preset temperature, then all air source heat pump units, the second variable frequency water pump and the first variable frequency water pump of road A are controlled to be in the closed state.

[0130] It can be known from the above that, in the method provided in the embodiment of the application, in the case that the road surface temperature t1 is greater than the third preset temperature in high-temperature weather, at this time, the water in the water tank is insufficient to cool the road surface, the second variable frequency water pump is started while the first variable frequency water pump is started to circulate the water in the water tank in the underground pipe device, and the air source heat pump unit is started in the refrigeration mode to cool the water in the water tank, thereby enhancing the cooling effect on the road surface and ensuring that the road surface can be cooled even if the water in the water tank is insufficient to cool the road surface. Meanwhile, the second variable frequency water pump is adjusted according to the difference between the ambient temperature t2 and the first water tank temperature T1 to control the circulation flow rate of the water in the water tank in the air source heat pump unit, thereby improving the cooling effect on the water in the water tank.

[0131] In some embodiments, in the case that the road surface temperature t1 is less than the fourth preset temperature, the first variable frequency water pump is started to circulate the water in the water tank in the underground pipe device to heat the road surface.

[0132] For example, the fourth preset temperature is 0℃, and the road surface temperature t1 of the road A is -6℃, at this time, the road surface temperature t1 is less than the fourth preset temperature, and the first variable frequency water pump is started to circulate the water in the water tank in the underground pipe device to heat the road surface.

[0133] In some embodiments, the first variable frequency water pump is adjusted according to the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 to control the circulation flow rate of the water in the water tank in the underground pipe device, the greater the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1, the higher the gear of the first variable frequency water pump, and the faster the circulation flow rate of the water in the underground water tank in the underground pipe device is controlled.

[0134] The difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 is the value of the first water tank temperature T1 minus the road surface temperature t1.

[0135] It can be known from the above that, in the method provided in the embodiment of the application, in the case that the road surface temperature t1 is less than the fourth preset temperature, at this time, the road surface needs to be heated and deiced, the first variable frequency water pump is started to heat the road surface by using the temperature of the water in the water tank, and a series of traffic accidents caused by the icing of the road surface can be avoided. Meanwhile, the first variable frequency water pump is adjusted according to the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1, and the heating efficiency on the road surface can be improved.

[0136] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 5, Figure 10 The method provided in the embodiment of the application further includes the following S501-S503.

[0137] S501, in the case that the road surface temperature t1 is less than the fifth preset temperature, the first variable frequency water pump is started to circulate the water in the water tank in the underground pipe device to heat the road surface.

[0138] In some embodiments, after the air source heat pump unit is started in heating mode, the number of air source heat pump units started in heating mode is increased or decreased according to the difference between the first water tank temperature T1 and the road surface temperature t1 to adjust the heating effect on the water in the water tank.

[0139] S502, control the fifth preset number of air source heat pump units to start heating mode.

[0140] In some embodiments, after the fifth preset number of air source heat pump units are started in heating mode, the number of air source heat pump units started in heating mode is increased or decreased according to the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 to adjust the heating effect on the water in the water tank.

[0141] Wherein, the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 is the value of the first water tank temperature T1 minus the road surface temperature t1.

[0142] For example, 30 air source heat pump units are started in heating mode, but after the first preset time, the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 is 10℃, while the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 before the first preset time is 8℃. At this time, it is indicated that starting 30 air source heat pump units in heating mode is not enough to effectively heat the road surface, and 10 air source heat pump units are started in heating mode to improve the heating effect on the water in the water tank.

[0143] In some embodiments, if the road surface temperature t1 is less than the fifth preset temperature, continue to be less than the sixth preset temperature, start the electric heating device to heat the water flowing from the air source heat pump unit to the water tank.

[0144] Wherein, the sixth preset temperature is less than the fifth preset temperature.

[0145] For example, the fifth preset temperature is -10℃, and the sixth preset temperature is -20℃. At this time, it is detected that the road surface temperature t1 of road A is -30℃, that is, the road surface temperature t1 of road A is less than the fifth preset temperature, and continues to be less than the sixth preset temperature. At this time, the electric heating device is started.

[0146] S503, start the second variable frequency water pump to circulate the water in the water tank in the air source heat pump unit and improve the temperature of the water in the water tank.

[0147] In some embodiments, the second variable frequency water pump is adjusted according to the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the water tank temperature to control the circulation flow of the water in the water tank in the air source heat pump unit. The greater the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1, the higher the gear of the first variable frequency water pump, so as to control the circulation flow of the water in the buried water tank in the buried pipe device faster.

[0148] The difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 is the first water tank temperature T1 minus the road surface temperature t1.

[0149] In some embodiments, when the road surface temperature t1 is greater than or equal to a fourth preset temperature, multiple air source heat pump units, the second variable frequency water pump and the first variable frequency water pump are controlled to be in a closed state.

[0150] For example, after heating the road surface of road A for 30 minutes, if the road surface temperature t1 is detected to be greater than the fourth preset temperature, then all air source heat pump units, the second variable frequency water pump and the first variable frequency water pump of road A are controlled to be turned off.

[0151] As can be seen from the above, in the method described in this application embodiment, when the road surface temperature t1 is less than the fifth preset temperature in low-temperature weather, the heat of the water in the water tank is insufficient to melt the ice on the road surface. While the first variable frequency water pump is turned on to circulate the water in the water tank through the underground pipe device, the second variable frequency water pump is turned on, and the air source heat pump unit is activated in heating mode to heat the water in the water tank, enhancing the heating effect on the road surface and ensuring that the road surface can still be heated even when the water in the water tank is insufficient. When the road surface temperature t1 is less than the fifth preset temperature and continues to be less than the sixth degree Celsius, the electric heating device is turned on to further heat the water entering the water tank, improving the heating effect on the road surface. Simultaneously, adjusting the second variable frequency water pump according to the difference between the road surface temperature t1 and the first water tank temperature T1 to control the circulation flow rate of the water in the water tank within the air source heat pump unit also improves the heating effect on the water in the water tank.

[0152] As can be seen, the above mainly describes the solutions provided by the embodiments of this application from a methodological perspective.
