Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of airflow field regulation technology, and more specifically to a laboratory airflow field intelligent regulation system. Background Technology

[0002] Laboratory ventilation is one of the largest and most far-reaching systems in the entire laboratory design and construction process. The quality of the ventilation system directly impacts the laboratory environment, the health of laboratory personnel, and the operation and maintenance of laboratory equipment.

[0003] However, laboratories typically rely on air conditioning systems, which generate significant ventilation volumes and require long operating times, resulting in substantial energy consumption during operation. Therefore, it is crucial to effectively control airflow to improve energy efficiency while ensuring laboratory safety, achieving the most ideal energy-saving effect.

[0004] Currently, laboratories are typically equipped with variable air volume (VAV) air conditioning systems, which regulate the airflow within the laboratory while actively supplying air and setting the supply air temperature to intelligently regulate the indoor temperature; and complete the regulation of the laboratory temperature and the stabilization of the airflow field within a preset time.

[0005] However, this method has several drawbacks when a temperature reduction is needed. First, the active air supply process causes a portion of the air to move rapidly. Then, according to the continuity equation, the active air supply will cause the entire indoor air flow field to circulate. Finally, according to the energy equation, airflows of different temperatures merge and transfer heat, which will actually increase the indoor temperature within a certain period of time, causing instability in the airflow field.

[0006] To address the above problems, the present invention proposes a solution; Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide an intelligent airflow field regulation system for laboratories. This system addresses the problems in existing technologies where, during the intelligent regulation of indoor temperature through active air supply and setting the supply air temperature, the active air supply process first causes rapid movement of some air; then, according to the continuity equation, active air supply will cause cyclical movement of the entire indoor airflow field; finally, according to the energy equation, airflows of different temperatures merge and transfer heat, resulting in an increase in indoor temperature over a certain period, causing instability in the airflow field.

[0008] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0009] A laboratory airflow field intelligent regulation system includes:

[0010] The monitoring terminal monitors the temperature inside and outside the laboratory, the supply air temperature, and the supply air velocity. The laboratory is equipped with a variable air volume air conditioning system.

[0011] The adjustment module regulates the variable air volume air conditioning system in the laboratory.

[0012] The data analysis module analyzes the operation of the variable air volume air conditioning system in the laboratory and generates the current fusion parameter E1 and the peace parameter E2 for the laboratory.

[0013] Furthermore, the monitoring terminal includes a temperature monitoring module, which is used to monitor the temperature inside and outside the laboratory in real time.

[0014] Furthermore, the monitoring terminal also includes a variable air volume monitoring module, which is used to monitor the supply air temperature and supply air speed of the variable air volume air conditioning system in the laboratory in real time. When the variable air volume air conditioning system in the laboratory starts to work, the variable air volume monitoring module monitors the supply air temperature and supply air speed of the variable air volume air conditioning system in the laboratory in real time and generates supply air monitoring data of the variable air volume air conditioning system in the laboratory based on it.

[0015] Furthermore, the data analysis module performs the following steps to generate the current fusion parameter E1 and the peace parameter E2 for the laboratory:

[0016] S21: First, select a laboratory equipped with a variable air volume air conditioning system as the laboratory to be scheduled, and obtain the air outlet area P1 of the laboratory to be scheduled.

[0017] S22: Obtain the indoor temperature of the laboratory to be scheduled in a scheduling cycle, labeled as A1, A2, ..., Aa, where a≥1;

[0018] A complete scheduling cycle is defined as the period from when the variable air volume air conditioning system of the laboratory to be scheduled starts working until the temperature of the laboratory to be scheduled is adjusted to the preset temperature; the preset temperature is the suitable temperature for use in the laboratory; and Aa is the suitable temperature of the laboratory to be scheduled during this scheduling cycle.

[0019] Obtain the active air supply velocity B1 and active air supply temperature C1 of the scheduled laboratory for a scheduling week;

[0020] S23: Compare the sizes of A1 and A2, A2 and A3, ..., Aa-1 and Aa in sequence. If Ai≤Ai+1, obtain the time it takes for the indoor temperature of the laboratory to be scheduled to be adjusted from A1 to Ai, and mark it as D1.

[0021] S24: Utilize the formula Calculate and obtain the fusion factor α1 for the heat transfer of mixed laboratory gases in the laboratory variable air volume air conditioning system to be scheduled for a scheduling cycle;

[0022] S25: Obtain the time from Ai+1 to Aa of the indoor temperature of the laboratory to be scheduled, and mark it as D2;

[0023] S26: Use the formula Calculate and obtain the smoothing factor β1 for the uniform mixing of the heat of the mixed laboratory gas in the variable air volume air conditioning system of the laboratory to be scheduled in one scheduling period;

[0024] S27: Calculate and obtain the fusion factors ɑ1, ɑ2,..., ɑt for the heat transfer of the mixed laboratory gas in the variable air volume air conditioning system of the laboratory to be scheduled in t scheduling periods and the smoothing factors β1, β2,..., βt for the uniform mixing according to S21 to S26; Use the summation and averaging formula to calculate and obtain the average value of the fusion factors for the heat transfer of the mixed laboratory gas in the variable air volume air conditioning system of the laboratory to be scheduled in t scheduling periods, and re-label it as the fusion parameter E1, and the average value of the smoothing factors for the uniform mixing, and re-label it as the smoothing parameter E2;

[0025] The t scheduling periods are t scheduling periods traced back from the current scheduling period to the past. <00000s5>

[0026] Furthermore, the adjustment module obtains the time when the current reserved personnel use the laboratory and adjusts the air flow field in the laboratory according to a certain adjustment rule. The specific adjustment rules are as follows:

[0027] S11: Obtain the time interval I between the current moment and the moment when the laboratory is reserved for use and the pre-adjusted temperature F2 of the laboratory. The pre-adjusted temperature of the laboratory is the suitable temperature of the laboratory when reserved for use;

[0028] Obtain the indoor temperature G1 at the current moment;

[0029] S12: Use the formula Calculate and obtain the active air supply start time I1 of the variable air volume adjustment system in the current state. H1 is the preset minimum energy consumption active air supply temperature, H2 is the highest temperature at which the active air supply of the variable air volume air conditioning system causes a temperature increase but does not affect the chaos of the air flow field at the current indoor temperature; V1 is the highest speed that does not cause noise;

[0030] S13: If I1≥I, use the formula Calculate and obtain the minimum energy consumption active air supply temperature K1 of the current laboratory;

[0031] The scheduling module adjusts and activates the air volume adjustment system to actively supply air to the laboratory at the air supply temperature K1 and the air supply speed V1;

[0032] If I1<I, use the formula J1 = I - I1 to calculate and obtain the low energy consumption start time J1 of the variable air volume air conditioning system in the current laboratory at the current moment;

[0033] The scheduling module activates the variable air volume regulation system within time J1, actively supplying air to the laboratory at air supply temperature H1 and air supply speed V2.

[0034] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0035] This invention uses a monitoring terminal to monitor the internal and external temperatures, supply air temperature, and supply air velocity of a laboratory equipped with a variable air volume (VAV) air conditioning system in real time. A data analysis module analyzes the operating status of the VAV air conditioning system at startup, obtaining fusion parameters for the temperature rise caused by airflow mixing during a certain intermediate period due to active air supply in the laboratory, and parameters for the temperature to drop back to the preset temperature after the rise. An adjustment module adjusts the active air supply time and temperature based on the scheduled laboratory usage time and the pre-suitable temperature for the laboratory under the current conditions. This avoids turbulence in the laboratory's airflow field caused by the reverse temperature changes resulting from airflow and the interaction between airflows of different temperatures, ensuring the stability of the airflow field during active air supply. Furthermore, by adjusting the optimal active air supply temperature based on the current laboratory conditions, it avoids noise caused by excessively high active air supply velocities.
