Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of air conditioning technology, specifically to a sewage source magnetic levitation centrifugal multi-split air conditioning system. Background Technology

[0002] Multi-split central air conditioning is a type of user-owned central air conditioning system, commonly known as "one-to-many." It refers to a system where one outdoor unit is connected to two or more indoor units via piping. The outdoor unit uses air-cooled heat exchange, while the indoor units use direct evaporation heat exchange. Multi-split systems are increasingly widely used in small and medium-sized buildings and some public buildings.

[0003] Existing multi-split air conditioning systems are relatively simple. Traditional systems rely solely on the flow of refrigerant between the indoor and outdoor units to complete the cooling or heating cycle. This reliance on refrigerant results in generally poor stability during operation.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention, employing the above technical solution, has the following technical effects:

[0017] I. The wastewater source magnetic levitation centrifugal multi-split air conditioning system of this invention uses two magnetic levitation centrifugal compressors connected in parallel to increase the cooling capacity of the multi-split system. The magnetic levitation multi-split compressor does not require lubricating oil, overcoming the problem of difficult oil return due to long piping in ordinary multi-split air conditioner compressors. Based on the refrigeration principle and refrigerant characteristics, it overcomes the shortcomings of insufficient cooling capacity in existing multi-split air conditioning systems with the same configuration, improving the refrigeration cycle economy. The shell and tube heat exchanger located on one side of the first water pipe does not require a cooling tower. The heat exchanger of the indoor unit is a direct expansion type, that is, the refrigerant directly evaporates and exchanges heat with the air, which is more energy-efficient and makes the wastewater source magnetic levitation centrifugal multi-split air conditioning system operate stably and reliably.

[0018] II. This sewage-source magnetic levitation centrifugal multi-split air conditioning system uses urban sewage as the heat source for the shell-and-tube heat exchanger. The temperature of urban sewage is generally greater than 10℃ and less than 40℃. In summer, when the multi-split air conditioner is cooling, the shell-and-tube heat exchanger acts as a heat-releasing condenser, exchanging heat with the urban sewage. In winter, when the multi-split air conditioner is heating, the shell-and-tube heat exchanger acts as a heat-absorbing evaporator, absorbing heat from the hot water within the shell-and-tube heat exchanger. Only a water pump is needed for power, eliminating the need for a cooling tower. By utilizing the heat from the urban sewage source to exchange heat with the shell-and-tube heat exchanger, the system achieves low carbon emissions, energy savings, and environmental friendliness.

[0019] Third, the high-pressure liquid refrigerant is throttled and depressurized into a low-temperature, low-pressure liquid refrigerant by the action of the third electronic expansion valve. The low-temperature, low-pressure liquid refrigerant enters the plate heat exchanger and evaporates into a low-temperature, low-pressure gaseous refrigerant. The low-temperature, low-pressure gaseous refrigerant enters the gas-liquid separator for gas-liquid separation and is finally drawn into the compressor. This cycle increases the refrigerant mass flow rate and refrigerant enthalpy difference, i.e., the "heat recovery cycle," which improves the cooling capacity of the multi-split unit. The purpose of this heating cycle is to increase the heating capacity of the magnetic levitation centrifugal multi-split unit. Attached Figure Description

The second pressure sensor 38 is a low-pressure sensor.

Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The dashed arrow indicates the direction of refrigerant flow during heating, while the solid arrow indicates the direction of refrigerant flow during cooling.

[0035] The inlet of the second water pipe 17 is connected to the sewage processor 15 via a water pipe. The inlet of the sewage processor 15 is connected to the inlet of the urban sewage network via a water pipe. The outlet of the second water pipe 17 is connected to the outlet of the urban sewage network via a water pipe. The sewage processor 15 treats the sewage in the urban sewage network.

One end of the four-way reversing valve 12 is connected to the inlet of the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 13 via a copper pipe.

[0036] A second three-way valve 20 and a third three-way valve 26 are respectively installed on one side of the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 13. The liquid outlet end of the third three-way valve 26 is connected to a second electronic expansion valve 23, a third filter 24, a first electronic expansion valve 21, and a second filter 22 via copper pipes. One end of the second filter 22 and the third filter 24 is connected to the third three-way valve 26 via copper pipes. A third check valve 25 is installed between the second three-way valve 20 and the third three-way valve 26. A first filter 19 is installed between the second three-way valve 20 and the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 13. The first filter 19 and the second filter 26 are connected to each other. 2. The function of the third filter 24, the fourth filter 32, and the fifth filter 39 is to filter impurities inside the refrigerant. The liquid inlet of the plate heat exchanger 31 is connected to the fourth three-way valve 29 and the third electronic expansion valve 30 through copper pipes. The liquid inlet of the two fourth three-way valves 29 is connected to the liquid outlet of the liquid receiver 28 and one end of the third electronic expansion valve 30, respectively. The liquid outlet of one of the plate heat exchangers 31 is connected to the four-way reversing valve 12. The other plate heat exchanger 31 is connected to several heat exchangers 3. The heat exchangers 3 are located indoors and are used to provide indoor heating and cooling air.

[0037] Working principle: Multiple heat exchangers 3 are located inside the indoor unit, while the first magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 1, the second magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 2, and the shell and tube heat exchanger 13 are all installed inside the outdoor unit. When the outdoor unit starts cooling, the refrigerant circulates in multiple sets of copper pipes. The first balancing solenoid valve 4 and the second balancing solenoid valve 5 open when the pressure of the multi-split air conditioning system is too high, protecting the refrigeration compressor to operate stably and reliably.

[0038] During the refrigeration cycle, the refrigerant is discharged as high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas through the outlet of the first magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 1. The high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas is transported through the first one-way valve 6. At the same time, the refrigerant is discharged as high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas through the outlet of the second magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 2. The high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas is transported through the fourth one-way valve 41. The high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas that has passed through the first one-way valve 6 and the fourth one-way valve 41 is transported to the inside of the first three-way valve 7 for mixing. When the mixed high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas is transported through the outlet pipe of the first three-way valve 7, when the refrigeration exhaust pressure exceeds the set value, the high-pressure switch 8 is disconnected, causing the first magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 1 and the second magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 2 to stop, thus protecting the first magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 1 and the second magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 2.

[0039] The high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas from the first three-way valve 7, after passing through the second one-way valve 10, enters through port D of the four-way reversing valve 12 and flows out from port C. At this time, the first pressure sensor 11 monitors the exhaust pressure of the refrigeration system, which facilitates the control of the loading and unloading of the first magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 1 and the second magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 2, ensuring stable operation of the system. The gas bypass solenoid valve 9 opens when the pressure of the multi-split air conditioning system is too high, protecting the first magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 1 and the second magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 2 to operate stably and reliably during refrigeration.

[0040] The high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas at port C of the four-way reversing valve 12 enters the inside of the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 13 for condensation and heat release. The high-temperature and high-pressure liquid after condensation flows out at the liquid outlet of the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 13. The high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant liquid flows through the first filter 19 and then enters the inside of the second three-way valve 20. At the same time, a portion of the refrigerant flows through the third check valve 25. The high-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant inside the second three-way valve 20 is divided into two paths. One path passes through the first electronic expansion valve 21 and the second filter 22, and the other path passes through the second electronic expansion valve 23 and the third filter 24. Then, they all enter the inside of the third three-way valve 26. The high-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant at the liquid outlet of the third three-way valve 26 mixes with the high-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant at the third check valve 25 and then enters the inside of the cooler 27. The cooled high-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant enters the inside of the receiver 28.

[0041] The high-temperature, high-pressure liquid refrigerant flowing out of the liquid outlet of the receiver 28 enters the inside of the fourth three-way valve 29. The fourth three-way valve 29 divides the high-temperature, high-pressure liquid refrigerant into two paths. One path of the high-temperature, high-pressure liquid refrigerant enters the inside of the plate heat exchanger 31 through the third electronic expansion valve 30, and the other path directly enters the inside of the plate heat exchanger 31 after passing through the fourth three-way valve 29. The high-temperature, high-pressure liquid refrigerant enters the plate heat exchanger 31 for further cooling. After cooling, the low-temperature, high-pressure liquid refrigerant flows out of the plate heat exchanger 31 and is filtered by the fourth filter 32. Then, the low-temperature, high-pressure liquid refrigerant flows through the first ball valve 33 and enters the inside of the heat exchanger 3 of multiple indoor units through the main inlet B. Under the action of the fourth electronic expansion valve 34, the low-temperature, high-pressure liquid refrigerant is converted into a low-temperature, low-pressure liquid refrigerant and enters the heat exchanger 3 of the indoor unit to absorb heat and evaporate into a low-temperature, low-pressure gaseous refrigerant. This process realizes the refrigeration cycle of the heat exchanger 3 of multiple indoor units.

[0042] Low-temperature, low-pressure gaseous refrigerant flowing from multiple heat exchangers 3 gathers together and passes through the main outlet C and then through the second ball valve 35. At this point, the low-temperature, low-pressure gaseous refrigerant flows out through the four-way reversing valve 12E port and then out through the S port. The low-temperature, low-pressure gaseous refrigerant from the S port enters the gas-liquid separator 36 for gas-liquid separation. The low-temperature, low-pressure gaseous refrigerant after gas-liquid separation flows out from the gas outlet of the gas-liquid separator 36. The low-temperature, low-pressure gaseous refrigerant then enters the fifth filter 39 and flows out. The low-temperature, low-pressure gaseous refrigerant then enters the fifth three-way valve 40, which divides the low-temperature, low-pressure gaseous refrigerant into two paths. One path enters the first magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 1 and is compressed, while the other path enters the second magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 2 and is drawn in and compressed. A multi-split air conditioning refrigeration cycle is realized by connecting two magnetic levitation centrifugal compressors in parallel. In this process, the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant liquid evaporates into low-temperature and low-pressure gaseous refrigerant through the plate heat exchanger 31 and enters the gas-liquid separator 36 for gas-liquid separation. This cycle increases the refrigerant mass flow rate and refrigerant enthalpy difference, i.e., the "heat recovery cycle" to improve the refrigeration capacity of the multi-split air conditioning system. The purpose of this refrigeration cycle is to increase the refrigeration capacity of the magnetic levitation centrifugal multi-split air conditioning system.

[0043] This sewage source magnetic levitation centrifugal multi-split air conditioning system uses urban sewage as the heat source for shell-and-tube heat exchanger 13. The temperature of urban sewage is generally greater than 10℃ and less than 40℃. During the summer cooling period, the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 13 acts as a heat-releasing condenser. The heat released by the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 13 exchanges heat with the urban sewage. Only the water pump 14 is needed to provide power, and there is no need for cooling towers, etc. After the urban sewage has passed through the sewage treatment system, including filtration, water treatment, and water temperature regulation, it exchanges heat with the first water pipe 16 in the second water pipe 17. The water temperature in the first water pipe 16 decreases while the sewage temperature increases. The water pump 14 provides the power for water circulation.

[0044] Low-temperature water in the first water pipe 16 flows into the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 13 through the water inlet and exchanges heat with the high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant gas flowing into the liquid inlet of the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 13. This causes the refrigerant in the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 13 to condense and release heat into a high-temperature, high-pressure liquid refrigerant. In this invention, the sewage source magnetic levitation centrifugal multi-split air conditioning system uses two magnetic levitation centrifugal compressors connected in parallel to increase the cooling capacity of the multi-split system. The magnetic levitation multi-split unit does not require lubricating oil, overcoming the problem that ordinary compressors in multi-split air conditioners have difficulty returning oil due to long piping. Based on the refrigeration principle and refrigerant characteristics, it overcomes the shortcomings of insufficient cooling capacity in existing multi-split air conditioning systems with the same configuration, and improves the refrigeration cycle economy. The shell-and-tube heat exchanger 13 located on one side of the first water pipe 16 does not require a cooling tower. The heat exchanger 3 of the indoor unit is a direct expansion type, that is, the refrigerant directly evaporates and exchanges heat with the air, which is more energy-efficient and makes the sewage source magnetic levitation centrifugal multi-split air conditioning system operate stably and reliably.

[0045] Example 2

[0046] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that:

[0047] During the heating cycle, in the sewage source magnetic levitation centrifugal multi-split air conditioning system, the outdoor heating is carried out at the ambient temperature, and the refrigerant in the outdoor unit circulates in the copper pipes. The first balancing solenoid valve 4 and the second balancing solenoid valve 5 open when the pressure of the multi-split air conditioning system is too high, protecting the first magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 1 and the second magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 2 to ensure stable and reliable operation.

[0048] The refrigerant is discharged as high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant gas from the outlet of the first magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 1 and transported through the first one-way valve 6. At the same time, the refrigerant is discharged as high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant gas from the outlet of the second magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 2. The high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant gas is transported through the fourth one-way valve 41. The high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant gas that has passed through the first one-way valve 6 and the fourth one-way valve 41 is transported to the inside of the first three-way valve 7 for mixing. When the mixed high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant gas is transported through the outlet pipe of the first three-way valve 7, the high-pressure switch 8 is disconnected when the refrigeration exhaust pressure exceeds the set value, causing the first magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 1 and the second magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 2 to stop, thus protecting the first magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 1 and the second magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 2.

[0049] During heating, the D port and E port of the four-way reversing valve 12 are interconnected, and the C port and S port are interconnected. The first pressure sensor 11 monitors the exhaust pressure of the refrigeration system, which facilitates the control of the loading and unloading of the first magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 1 and the second magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 2, ensuring stable system operation. The gas bypass solenoid valve 9 opens when the pressure of the multi-split air conditioning system is too high, protecting the first magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 1 and the second magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 2 to operate stably and reliably during cooling.

[0050] High-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas from port E of the four-way reversing valve 12 passes through the inside of the second ball valve 35 and then enters the heat exchangers 3 of multiple indoor units through the main outlet C for condensation and heat release, thereby enabling the heat exchangers 3 of multiple indoor units to provide heating. After condensation and heat release in the multiple heat exchangers 3, the high-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant is mixed together under the action of multiple fourth electronic expansion valves 34 and flows through the main inlet B and the first ball valve 33. At the same time, the high-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant is filtered by the fourth filter 32. Then, the high-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant is recooled and subcooled from the liquid inlet end of the plate heat exchanger 31. The cooled low-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant flows out from the liquid outlet end of the plate heat exchanger 31.

[0051] Meanwhile, the low-temperature, high-pressure liquid refrigerant is divided into two paths after passing through the fourth three-way valve 29. One path is the high-temperature, high-pressure liquid refrigerant entering the liquid receiver 28. Then, the high-temperature, high-pressure liquid refrigerant inside the liquid receiver 28 flows into the cooler 27. After cooling, the high-temperature, high-pressure liquid refrigerant enters the third three-way valve 26. At this time, the third one-way valve 25 is closed in reverse, and no refrigerant flows. The high-temperature, high-pressure liquid refrigerant passing through the third three-way valve 26 is divided into two paths. One path passes through the second filter 22 and enters the first electronic expansion valve 21, where it is throttled and depressurized into a low-temperature, low-pressure liquid refrigerant. Then, it enters the second three-way valve 20. The other path is the high-temperature, high-pressure liquid refrigerant flowing through the third filter 24 and entering the inner side of the second electronic expansion valve 23, where it is throttled and depressurized into a low-temperature, low-pressure liquid refrigerant. Both paths of low-temperature, low-pressure liquid refrigerant enter the inner side of the second three-way valve 20. Then, the low-temperature, low-pressure liquid refrigerant output from the liquid outlet of the second three-way valve 20 passes through the first filter 19 and enters the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 13 to absorb heat and evaporate into a low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant gas.

[0052] Low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant gas enters the four-way reversing valve 12 through port C and flows out from port S. The low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant gas from port S enters the gas-liquid separator 36 for gas-liquid separation. After gas-liquid separation, the low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant gas enters the fifth filter 39 and then flows out. The low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant gas enters the fifth three-way valve 40, which divides the low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant gas into two streams. One stream enters the first magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 1 and is drawn in and compressed, while the other stream enters the second magnetic levitation centrifugal compressor 2 and is drawn in and compressed, thus realizing a multi-split air conditioning heating cycle with two magnetic levitation centrifugal compressors in parallel.

[0053] In this process, the high-pressure liquid refrigerant is throttled and depressurized into a low-temperature, low-pressure liquid refrigerant by the action of the third electronic expansion valve 30. The low-temperature, low-pressure liquid refrigerant enters the plate heat exchanger 31 and evaporates into a low-temperature, low-pressure gaseous refrigerant. The low-temperature, low-pressure gaseous refrigerant enters the gas-liquid separator 36 for gas-liquid separation and is finally drawn into the compressor. This cycle increases the refrigerant mass flow rate and refrigerant enthalpy difference, i.e., the "heat recovery cycle" to improve the cooling capacity of the multi-split unit. The purpose of this heating cycle is to increase the heating capacity of the magnetic levitation centrifugal multi-split unit.

[0054] This sewage-source magnetic levitation centrifugal multi-split air conditioning system uses urban sewage as the heat source for the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 13. The temperature of the urban sewage is generally greater than 10℃ and less than 40℃. During winter heating, the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 13 acts as a heat-absorbing evaporator. The heat absorbed by the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 13 comes from the heat of the hot water in the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 13. The hot water in the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 13 exchanges heat with the urban sewage, further increasing the water temperature in the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 13. Only the water pump 14 is needed to provide power; no cooling tower is required. After undergoing sewage treatment processes including filtration, water quality treatment, and water temperature regulation, the urban sewage exchanges heat with the first water pipe 16 in the second water pipe 17. The water temperature in the first water pipe 16 increases, while the water temperature in the second water pipe 17 decreases.
