AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies for defrosting air conditioning heating systems without shutting down the system result in reduced heating capacity and reduced compressor reliability.
Phase separation technology is used to introduce the mixed refrigerant after heat exchange into the phase separator for gas-liquid separation. The liquid refrigerant enters the evaporator for further heat exchange and then returns to the compressor suction port, while the gaseous refrigerant directly enters the compressor suction port. By adjusting the state of the electronic expansion valve and the switch, the high-temperature gaseous refrigerant is directly output to the outside of the evaporator to help defrost without stopping the machine. At the same time, the speed of the internal fan is adjusted to maintain the outlet air temperature.
The heating capacity of the heating system has been increased, ensuring that the evaporator does not frost up and avoiding cold air blowing, thus improving the user experience.

[0039] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the application and not to limit the application.
[0040] The embodiment of the application provides a heating system, which refers to Figure 1 , Figure 1 is a structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of the heating system of the application.
[0041] In the embodiment, the heating system comprises:
[0042] The compressor 10 comprises an input end and an output end;
[0043] The condenser 20 is communicated with the output end of the compressor 10.
[0044] An evaporator 30, which comprises an evaporator inner row 31 and an evaporator outer row 32, an input end of the evaporator inner row 31 is communicated with an output end of the condenser 20, a first electronic expansion valve 41 is arranged between the condenser 20 and the evaporator inner row 31;
[0045] An output end of the evaporator inner row 31 is communicated with an input end of the compressor 10, a first switch 51 is arranged between the evaporator inner row 31 and the compressor 10;
[0046] An output end of the evaporator outer row 32 is communicated with an input end of the compressor 10;
[0047] A phase separator 40, an input end of the phase separator 40 is respectively communicated with an output end of the compressor 10 and an output end of the evaporator inner row 31, a second electronic expansion valve 42 is arranged between the phase separator 40 and the output end of the compressor 10, a second switch 52 is arranged between the phase separator 40 and the output end of the evaporator inner row 31;
[0048] Two output ends of the phase separator 40 are respectively communicated with an input end of the compressor 10 and an input end of the evaporator outer row 32, a third switch 53 is arranged between the phase separator 40 and the input end of the compressor 10;
[0049] When the heating system starts heating, the first electronic expansion valve 41, the second switch 52 and the third switch 52 are opened, the second electronic expansion valve 42 and the first switch 51 are closed; when the heating system starts defrosting, the first electronic expansion valve 41, the second electronic expansion valve 42 and the first switch 51 are opened, the second switch 52 and the third switch 53 are closed, and the opening degree of the first electronic expansion valve 41 and the second electronic expansion valve 42 is adjusted to defrost the evaporator 30.
[0050] It is to be noted that in the embodiment, the compressor 10 is a driven fluid machine for lifting low-pressure gas into high-pressure gas, which is used for compressing and conveying refrigerant and is the heart of the heating system. It sucks in low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant gas from the suction pipe, and after being compressed by the piston driven by the motor, it discharges high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant to the exhaust pipe to provide power for the heating cycle. Thus, the heating cycle of compression→condensation (heat release)→expansion→evaporation (heat absorption) is realized, and the refrigerant is cooled and condensed in the condenser 20, and then enters the evaporator 30 through the evaporator inner row 31 and the evaporator outer row 32. Figure 1 The arrow direction marked in the figure can know the flow direction of the refrigerant.
[0051] In this embodiment, the condenser 20 and the evaporator 30 are devices for transferring part of the heat of the hot fluid to the cold fluid, also known as heat exchangers, which are energy-saving devices for achieving heat transfer between materials between two or more fluids at different temperatures. Alternatively, they can be floating head heat exchangers, fixed tube plate heat exchangers, U-shaped tube plate heat exchangers, plate heat exchangers, etc. In this embodiment, a plate heat exchanger is taken as an example for description, which does not limit the specific types of the condenser 20 and the evaporator 30. The condenser 20 includes two pipe openings for providing a channel for flowing refrigerant. The evaporator 30 includes two rows of heat exchangers, i.e., an inner row of evaporator 31 and an outer row of evaporator 32. The inner row of evaporator 31 and the outer row of evaporator 32 both include two pipe openings for providing a channel for flowing refrigerant.
[0052] As an example, in this embodiment, the heating system further includes:
[0053] A first sensor 310 is arranged at the output end of the inner row of evaporator 31 for detecting the temperature of the output end of the inner row of evaporator 31.
[0054] A second sensor 320 is arranged at the output end of the outer row of evaporator 32 for detecting the temperature of the output end of the outer row of evaporator 32.
[0055] It can be understood that in the heating mode, if the outdoor environment temperature is too low, the evaporator 30 in the outdoor unit may be defrosted. In order to monitor the defrosting condition, a temperature sensor needs to be arranged in the evaporator 30 for real-time monitoring whether the temperature of the evaporator 30 meets the defrosting condition. Since the heat exchange conditions of the inner row of evaporator 31 and the outer row of evaporator 32 are not completely the same, the temperatures of the inner row of evaporator 31 and the outer row of evaporator 32 are also not the same. Therefore, two temperature sensors, i.e., the first sensor 310 and the second sensor 320, need to be configured for the inner row of evaporator 31 and the outer row of evaporator 32, respectively, to monitor the outlet temperature of the inner row of evaporator 31 (i.e., the temperature of the output end of the inner row of evaporator 31) and the outlet temperature of the outer row of evaporator 32 (i.e., the temperature of the output end of the outer row of evaporator 32), respectively.
[0056] In the embodiment, the phase separator 40 is a gas-liquid separator, which can adopt many separation structures. The separation methods include gravity sedimentation, baffle separation, centrifugal force separation and filler separation. In the gravity sedimentation, the liquid has a downward velocity due to the gravity, while the gas still flows in the original direction, that is, the liquid and the gas have a separation tendency in the gravity field. The downward liquid adheres to the wall surface and is collected together and discharged through the discharge pipe. In the baffle separation, the gas flows in the direction of the resistance, while the liquid has a forward velocity due to the inertia. The forward liquid adheres to the resistance wall surface and is collected together and discharged through the discharge pipe. In the centrifugal force separation, the liquid has a centrifugal separation tendency due to the centrifugal force. The liquid adheres to the separation wall surface and is collected together and discharged through the discharge pipe. In the filler separation, the liquid adheres to the surface of the resistance filler and is collected together and discharged through the discharge pipe. The filler has a larger resistance wall area than the baffle, and the liquid is more likely to adhere to the wall surface due to the repeated baffle flow, so that the separation efficiency is higher.
[0057] In the embodiment, the heating system generally operates in the heating mode. At this time, the first electronic expansion valve 41, the second switch 52 and the third switch 53 are opened, the second electronic expansion valve 42 and the first switch 51 are closed, the compressor 10 compresses the discharged gaseous refrigerant and directly delivers it to the condenser 20 for heat dissipation and condensation. The gaseous refrigerant is delivered to the evaporator inner discharge 31 through the first electronic expansion valve 41, and is evaporated and heated to obtain mixed refrigerant. The mixed refrigerant is delivered to the phase separator 40 through the second switch 52 to obtain gaseous refrigerant and liquid refrigerant. The gaseous refrigerant is directly input to the compressor 10 for compression through the third switch 53, while the liquid refrigerant is input to the evaporator outer discharge 32 for evaporation and heating to obtain gaseous refrigerant, and finally enters the compressor 10 for compression, and the cycle is repeated.
[0058] In this embodiment, when the heating system operates in the heating mode for a certain period of time, if the outdoor ambient temperature is low, frost will appear on the evaporator outer row 32. In this embodiment, the frost melting of the evaporator outer row 32 is determined by combining the outlet temperature of the evaporator outer row 32 detected by the second sensor 320. When the heating system starts the defrosting function, the first electronic expansion valve 41, the second electronic expansion valve 42 and the first switch 51 are opened, and the second switch 52 and the third switch 53 are closed. The compressor 10 compresses the gaseous refrigerant discharged and part of it is transported to the condenser 20, and part of it is directly transported to the phase separator 40 through the second electronic expansion valve 42, and then to the evaporator outer row 32. Since this part of the gaseous refrigerant is high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant, it can help the evaporator outer row 32 to achieve a significant defrosting effect. The flow of high-temperature gaseous refrigerant entering the evaporator outer row 32 is controlled by adjusting the opening of the second electronic expansion valve 42, and the opening of the second electronic expansion valve 42 is dynamically adjusted according to the outlet temperature Tb of the evaporator outer row 32 measured by the second sensor 320 to achieve complete defrosting. The part of the gaseous refrigerant transported to the condenser 20 is still subjected to the heat dissipation and condensation process, and then transported to the evaporator inner row 31 through the first expansion valve 41 for heat absorption and evaporation. Since the liquid refrigerant input to the evaporator inner row 31 is not as much as in the normal heating condition at this time, the evaporator inner row 31 has enough capacity to evaporate this part of the liquid refrigerant, and the output refrigerant is basically gaseous refrigerant, which does not need to be separated and can be directly transported to the compressor 10 through the first switch 51 for compression and repeated circulation. That is, during the defrosting stage, the phase separator 40 no longer plays the role of gas-liquid separation, but plays the role of a gaseous refrigerant transfer station between the compressor 10 and the evaporator outer row 32.
[0059] It should be noted that after the evaporator outer row 32 is frosted, there is a risk of frosting on the evaporator inner row 31. At this time, the opening of the first electronic expansion valve 41 is adjusted to control the temperature of the refrigerant entering the evaporator inner row 31. Generally, the larger the opening, the more refrigerant enters and the higher the temperature, and the outlet temperature increases faster. The outlet temperature of the evaporator inner row 31 is measured by the first sensor 310 to maintain Ta between (5, 10 ℃) to ensure that the evaporator inner row 31 will not frost.
[0060] As an example, in this embodiment, the heating system further comprises:
[0061] An inner fan is arranged on the air duct where the condenser 20 is located.
[0062] It should be noted that, since only the evaporator inner discharge 31 is evaporating and absorbing heat in the non-stop defrosting stage, the heating capacity will be significantly reduced. If the original air speed is still used for air supply, the user will obviously feel that the air temperature is reduced. Therefore, the speed of the inner air fan corresponding to the condenser 20 needs to be adjusted synchronously in the non-stop defrosting stage, so that the air temperature of the air outlet will not be too low, avoiding the situation that the user experience is poor.
[0063] In the embodiment, a heating system is provided, which overcomes the technical problems of heat exchange capacity reduction and compressor reliability in the non-stop defrosting scheme in the prior art. The heating system is improved in the embodiment. In the normal heating process, the phase separation technology is used to introduce the mixed refrigerant after heat exchange into the phase separator for gas-liquid separation. The liquid refrigerant separated from the phase separator enters the evaporator to continue heat exchange and then returns to the suction port of the compressor. The gaseous refrigerant separated from the phase separator directly enters the suction port of the compressor, which improves the return gas temperature and further improves the heating capacity of the heating system. In the non-stop defrosting process, the opening and closing states of each electronic expansion valve and switch are changed in the embodiment, so that the high-temperature gaseous refrigerant output by the compressor can be directly output to the evaporator outer discharge to help defrosting, while ensuring that the evaporator inner discharge will not frost. Combined with the adjustment of the speed of the inner air fan, the cold air blowing is prevented, and the air outlet temperature of the air outlet is ensured not to be significantly reduced, which improves the user experience in the non-stop defrosting stage, realizes the functions of evaporator inner discharge heat exchange and evaporator outer discharge defrosting.
[0064] Referring to Figure 2 , Figure 2 The hardware structure diagram related to the operation of an embodiment of the present application is shown.
[0065] As Figure 2As shown, the hardware can be an air conditioner, which can include a processor 1001, such as a central processing unit (CPU), a communication bus 1002, a user interface 1003, a network interface 1004, and a memory 1005. The communication bus 1002 is used to realize the connection and communication between the components. The user interface 1003 can include a display, an input unit such as a keyboard, and can also include a standard wired interface, a wireless interface. The network interface 1004 can optionally include a standard wired interface, a wireless interface (such as a wireless fidelity (WIreless-FIdelity, WI-FI) interface). The memory 1005 can be a high-speed random access memory (RAM) memory, or a stable non-volatile memory (Non-Volatile Memory, NVM), such as a disk memory. The memory 1005 can also be a storage device independent of the aforementioned processor 1001.
[0066] Those skilled in the art can understand that Figure 2 The structure shown in the figure does not constitute a limitation on the air conditioner, and can include more or fewer components than the figure, or combine certain components, or different component arrangements.
[0067] As Figure 2 As shown, the memory 1005 as a storage medium can include an operating system, a data storage module, a network communication module, a user interface module, and a control program of the heating system.
[0068] In Figure 2 As shown in the air conditioner, the network interface 1004 is mainly used for data communication with other devices; the user interface 1003 is mainly used for data interaction with the user; the processor 1001 and the memory 1005 in the air conditioner of the application can be arranged in the air conditioner, and the air conditioner calls the control program of the heating system stored in the memory 1005 through the processor 1001, and executes the related step operation of the defrosting control method of the heating system in the following embodiments.
[0069] The embodiment of the application also provides a defrosting control method of a heating system, which is applied to the above-mentioned heating system and air conditioner, and refers to Figure 3 , Figure 3 The flowchart of an embodiment of the defrosting control method of the heating system of the application.
[0070] In this embodiment, the defrosting control method of the heating system includes:
[0071] Step S10, obtaining the operation mode of the heating system;
[0072] It should be noted that the processor in the air conditioner containing the heating system is the execution subject in the embodiment. The operation mode of the heating system includes the heating mode and the defrosting mode. In the two modes, the condenser 20 serves as the condensing end and plays a role of condensing and dissipating heat for the refrigerant, and the evaporator 30 serves as the evaporating end and plays a role of evaporating and absorbing heat for the refrigerant.
[0073] Step S20, adjusting the opening and closing states of the electronic expansion valves and switches in the heating system according to the operation mode of the heating system, so that the heating system performs heating or defrosting.
[0074] As an example, in the embodiment, the step of adjusting the opening and closing states of the electronic expansion valves and switches in the heating system according to the operation mode of the heating system in step S20 includes: when the operation mode of the heating system is the heating mode, opening the first electronic expansion valve 41, the second switch 52 and the third switch 53, and closing the second electronic expansion valve 42 and the first switch 51.
[0075] It can be understood that when the heating system operates in the heating mode, the first electronic expansion valve 41, the second switch 52 and the third switch 53 need to be opened, and the second electronic expansion valve 42 and the first switch 51 need to be closed, so that the gaseous refrigerant discharged by the compressor 10 is directly delivered to the condenser 20 for heat dissipation and condensation, and then delivered to the evaporator inner discharge 31 through the first electronic expansion valve 41, and then evaporated and absorbed to obtain mixed refrigerant, and then delivered to the phase separator 40 through the second switch 52 for separation to obtain gaseous refrigerant and liquid refrigerant, and then the gaseous refrigerant is directly input to the compressor 10 for compression, and the liquid refrigerant is first input to the evaporator outer discharge 32 for re-evaporation and heat absorption to obtain gaseous refrigerant, and then input to the compressor 10 for compression, and then repeatedly circulated.
[0076] As an example, in the present embodiment, the step of adjusting the opening and closing states of the electronic expansion valves and switches in the heating system according to the operating mode of the heating system in step S20 further includes: when the operating mode of the heating system is the defrosting mode, opening the first electronic expansion valve 41, the second electronic expansion valve 42 and the first switch 51, and closing the second switch 52 and the third switch 53. The first outlet temperature of the evaporator outer row 32 is obtained; the opening degree of the second electronic expansion valve 42 is dynamically adjusted according to the first outlet temperature of the evaporator outer row 32, and the higher the first outlet temperature, the smaller the opening degree of the second electronic expansion valve 42. The second outlet temperature of the evaporator inner row 31 is obtained; the opening degree of the first electronic expansion valve 41 is dynamically adjusted according to the second outlet temperature of the evaporator inner row 31, and the higher the second outlet temperature, the smaller the opening degree of the first electronic expansion valve 41, and the rotating speed of the inner fan in the heating system is adjusted.
[0077] It can be understood that, after the heating system runs in the heating mode for a certain period of time, if the outdoor environment temperature is low, the evaporator outer row 32 will appear frosting phenomenon. In the present embodiment, whether the evaporator outer row 32 needs to be defrosted is judged in combination with the outlet temperature of the evaporator outer row 32 detected by the second sensor 320. When the heating system starts the defrosting function, the first electronic expansion valve 41, the second electronic expansion valve 42 and the first switch 51 are opened, and the second switch 52 and the third switch 53 are closed. The gaseous refrigerant discharged by the compressor 10 is partially delivered to the condenser 20, and partially delivered to the phase separator 40 through the second electronic expansion valve 42, and then delivered to the evaporator outer row 32. Since the part of the gaseous refrigerant is high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant, it can help the evaporator outer row 32 to achieve significant defrosting effect, and the flow of the high-temperature gaseous refrigerant entering the evaporator outer row 32 is controlled by adjusting the opening degree of the second electronic expansion valve 42. The opening degree of the second electronic expansion valve 42 is dynamically adjusted according to the outlet temperature Tb of the evaporator outer row 32 measured by the second sensor 320 to achieve complete defrosting. The part of the gaseous refrigerant delivered to the condenser 20 is still subjected to the heat dissipation and condensation process, and then delivered to the refrigerant pipeline of the evaporator inner row 31 through the first electronic expansion valve 41 for heat absorption and evaporation. Since the liquid refrigerant input to the evaporator inner row 31 is not as much as in the normal heating condition, the evaporator inner row 31 has sufficient capacity to evaporate the part of the liquid refrigerant, and the output refrigerant is basically gaseous refrigerant, which does not need to be separated and can be directly delivered to the compressor 10 through the first switch 51 for compression and repeated circulation. That is, in the defrosting stage, the phase separator 40 no longer plays the role of gas-liquid separation, but plays the role of a gaseous refrigerant transfer station between the compressor 10 and the evaporator outer row 32.
[0078] It should be noted that after the evaporator outer row 32 is frosted, the evaporator inner row 31 also has the risk of frosting, at this time, the opening of the first electronic expansion valve 41 is adjusted to control the temperature of the refrigerant entering the evaporator inner row 31, generally speaking, the greater the opening, the more the refrigerant and the higher the temperature, the outlet temperature rises faster, and the outlet temperature Ta of the evaporator inner row 31 is measured by the first sensor 310, so that Ta is maintained between (5, 10℃), and it is ensured that the evaporator inner row 31 will not frost. In the embodiment, Tb>10℃ is considered to be defrosted clean. Since only the evaporator inner row 31 is evaporating and absorbing heat during the non-stop defrosting stage, the heating capacity will be significantly reduced. At this time, if the air is still sent at the original air speed, the user will obviously feel that the air temperature is reduced, so the air speed of the corresponding inner air fan of the condenser 20 needs to be adjusted synchronously during the non-stop defrosting stage, so that the air temperature of the air outlet is not too low, and the user experience is not poor.
[0079] In the embodiment, a defrosting control method of a heating system is provided, which overcomes the technical problems of heat exchange reduction and influence on compressor reliability in the non-stop defrosting scheme in the prior art. The heating system is improved in the embodiment. In the normal heating process, the phase separation technology is used to introduce the mixed refrigerant after heat exchange into the phase separator for gas-liquid separation. The liquid refrigerant is separated from the phase separator and then enters the evaporator to continue heat exchange and returns to the suction port of the compressor. The gaseous refrigerant is separated from the phase separator and then directly enters the suction port of the compressor, which improves the return gas temperature and further improves the heating capacity of the heating system. In the non-stop defrosting process, the opening and closing states of each electronic expansion valve and switch are changed in the embodiment, so that the high-temperature gaseous refrigerant output by the compressor can be directly output to the evaporator outer row to help defrost, and it is ensured that the evaporator inner row will not frost. By adjusting the speed of the inner air fan, cold air blowing is prevented, and the air outlet temperature of the air outlet is not significantly reduced, which improves the user experience during the non-stop defrosting stage and realizes the functions of evaporator inner row heat exchange and evaporator outer row defrosting.
[0080] In addition, the embodiment of the present application also provides a computer readable storage medium, and the computer readable storage medium stores a control program of a heating system. The control program of the heating system is executed by a processor to perform the related steps of any one of the defrosting control methods of the heating system as described above.
