In addition, the terms "include" and "have" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion.

[0045] Unless otherwise specified, the term "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0046] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the character " / " represents an "or" relationship between the objects before and after it. For example, A / B represents: A or B.

[0047] The term "and / or" is a description of the association between objects, which means that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B, which means: A or B, or, A and B, three relationships.

[0048] The term "corresponding" can refer to an association or binding relationship. A and B correspond to each other means that A and B have an association or binding relationship.

[0049] In combination Figure 1 As shown, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for controlling a refrigeration system, comprising:

[0050] S100, the processor acquires the space temperature of the storage space corresponding to the refrigeration system.

[0051] S200, the processor controls the refrigeration system to enter a rapid cooling mode when the space temperature is greater than or equal to a first temperature threshold.

[0052] Wherein, S200, the processor controls the refrigeration system to enter the rapid cooling mode, comprising:

[0053] S210, the processor controls the high-temperature stage compressor to operate at a first high-temperature stage set speed.

[0054] S220, the processor controls the operation of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor according to the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger.

[0055] The refrigeration system is installed in a refrigeration device. Optionally, the refrigeration device is a refrigerator, a freezer, a low-temperature storage box, or the like. The refrigeration system is a cascade refrigeration system, which includes a high-temperature stage compressor, a low-temperature stage compressor, and an intermediate heat exchanger. The storage space corresponding to the refrigeration system is the storage space of the refrigeration device, such as the inner space of the refrigerator, the inner space of the cabinet of the freezer, or the inner space of the low-temperature storage box. The processor of the refrigeration system is in communication connection with a temperature sensor arranged in the storage space to obtain the space temperature of the storage space. An outlet of the low-temperature stage refrigerant of the intermediate heat exchanger is provided with a temperature sensor, and the processor of the refrigeration system is in communication connection with the temperature sensor to obtain the outlet temperature of the low-temperature stage refrigerant of the intermediate heat exchanger (hereinafter referred to as the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger).

[0056] The processor compares the obtained space temperature with a first temperature threshold value set in advance. If tl≥T1 (tl is the space temperature of the storage space, and T1 is the first temperature threshold value), that is, the space temperature meets the first set temperature condition set in advance, it indicates that the temperature of the storage space is too high, and it is necessary to rapidly reduce the temperature to ensure the low-temperature storage environment of the goods. Therefore, at this time, the refrigeration system is controlled to enter a rapid cooling mode. Optionally, T1=TL+M1, wherein TL is the target temperature of the low-temperature stage refrigeration system, the value range is -40℃ to -86℃, the default value is -80℃, and the adjustment step is 1℃; M1 is the temperature adjustment value of the target temperature of the low-temperature stage refrigeration system in the rapid cooling mode, the value range is -0 to -20℃, the default value is 10℃, and the adjustment step is 1℃.

[0057] When the refrigeration system is controlled to enter the rapid cooling mode, the high-temperature stage compressor is first controlled to operate at a first high-temperature stage set speed. In this way, the refrigerant circulation loop in which the high-temperature stage compressor is located can exchange heat with the refrigerant circulation loop in which the low-temperature stage compressor is located, so that the refrigerant circulation loop in which the low-temperature stage compressor is located can reach a lower refrigeration temperature. Optionally, the first high-temperature stage set speed is the highest speed RH2 of the high-temperature stage compressor, the value range is 2000 rpm to 5000 rpm, the default value is 5000 rpm / minute, and the adjustment step is 100 rpm.

[0058] The temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger can reflect the final refrigeration temperature of the storage space, and thus it can be judged whether the low-temperature storage demand of the goods can be met. Therefore, after the high-temperature stage compressor operates at the first high-temperature stage set speed, the processor controls the operation of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor according to the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger, so that the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger can match the refrigeration demand.

[0059] The method for controlling the refrigeration system provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is used to determine whether the storage space needs to be rapidly cooled based on the space temperature of the storage space corresponding to the refrigeration system. If the space temperature is greater than or equal to the first temperature threshold, it indicates that the temperature of the storage space is relatively high, and the refrigeration system is controlled to enter the rapid cooling mode. The high-temperature level compressor is first controlled to operate at the first high-temperature level set speed to achieve rapid cooling. Then, the speeds of the high-temperature level compressor and the low-temperature level compressor are controlled based on the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger. The temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger can represent the refrigeration temperature of the storage space by the refrigeration system. The space temperature is adjusted in real time by controlling the speeds of the high-temperature level compressor and the low-temperature level compressor, the number of starts and stops of the compressor is reduced, and the surplus of refrigeration capacity caused by the fixed speed operation is reduced, so that the energy consumption of the refrigeration system is reduced.

[0060] In addition, the refrigeration system is intelligently adjusted by the above logic, which can prevent the exhaust gas / return gas temperature of the compressor from being too high due to abnormal temperature, and can improve the pressure state in the system and improve the reliability of the system.

[0061] Alternatively, after the high-temperature level compressor is controlled to operate at the first high-temperature level set speed for a second set time length M2, that is, after the temperature of the storage space stabilizes, the operation of the high-temperature level compressor and the low-temperature level compressor is controlled according to the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger. The second set time length M2 is the delay time length of the start of the low-temperature level compressor after the start of the high-temperature level compressor in the rapid cooling mode. In this way, the false adjustment caused by adjusting the compressor when the space temperature is not stable can be avoided, and the energy consumption of the refrigeration system is reduced. Alternatively, the value range of the second set time length M2 is 0 to 20 minutes, and the default value is 10 minutes, and the adjustment step is 1 minute.

[0062] In combination Figure 2 The embodiment of the present disclosure provides another method for controlling a refrigeration system, which comprises:

[0063] S100, the processor acquires the space temperature of the storage space corresponding to the refrigeration system.

[0064] S200, the processor controls the refrigeration system to enter the rapid cooling mode when the space temperature is greater than or equal to the first temperature threshold.

[0065] The processor controls the refrigeration system to enter the rapid cooling mode, which comprises:

[0066] S210, the processor controls the high-temperature level compressor to operate at the first high-temperature level set speed.

[0067] S221, the processor controls the low-temperature level compressor to operate at the first low-temperature level set speed when the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is less than or equal to the second temperature threshold.

[0068] The processor compares the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger with a second temperature threshold. If th≤ T2 (th is the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger; T2 is the second temperature threshold, which is also the target temperature TH1 of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system in the rapid cooling mode), it indicates that the space temperature is low, and the cold energy at this time is sufficient to maintain the low-temperature environment of the storage space. Therefore, the low-temperature stage compressor is controlled to operate at a first low-temperature stage set speed to avoid energy waste caused by excessive cold energy. Alternatively, the first low-temperature stage set speed is the highest speed RL2 of the low-temperature stage compressor. In the rapid cooling mode, the purpose of the low-temperature stage compressor taking the highest speed is to increase the low-temperature stage refrigerant flow as much as possible. As can be seen from the heat calculation formula Q = cmΔt (where Q is the heat, c is the specific heat capacity of the object, m is the mass of the object, and Δt is the temperature difference), under the condition that the specific heat capacity and the temperature difference are constant, increasing the refrigerant flow m can increase the refrigeration capacity, so as to quickly drop to the target temperature.

[0069] Alternatively, the value of RL2 ranges from 2000 rpm to 5000 rpm, and the default value is 5000 rpm, and the adjustment step is 100 rpm. Alternatively, TH1 is less than or equal to 0. Alternatively, the value of TH1 ranges from -55°C to 0, and the default value is -25°C, and the adjustment step is 1°C.

[0070] In combination Figure 3 As shown in the drawings, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide another method for controlling a refrigeration system, comprising:

[0071] S100, the processor acquires the space temperature of the storage space corresponding to the refrigeration system.

[0072] S200, the processor controls the refrigeration system to enter a rapid cooling mode when the space temperature is greater than or equal to a first temperature threshold.

[0073] Wherein, the processor controls the refrigeration system to enter the rapid cooling mode, comprising:

[0074] S210, the processor controls the high-temperature stage compressor to operate at a first high-temperature stage set speed.

[0075] S221, the processor controls the low-temperature stage compressor to operate at a first low-temperature stage set speed when the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is less than or equal to a second temperature threshold.

[0076] S222, the processor acquires a new temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger.

[0077] S223, the processor adjusts the operation of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor according to the new temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger.

[0078] The processor obtains a new temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger, and then adjusts the operation of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor according to the new temperature. In this way, the operation of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor is matched with the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger, and the energy consumption can be reduced under the premise of ensuring the refrigeration temperature.

[0079] Optionally, if the new temperature satisfies th'≥T3 (th' is the new temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger, and T3 is the third temperature threshold), it indicates that the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is still high after the low-temperature stage compressor operates at the first low-temperature stage set rotating speed, and the refrigeration capacity is insufficient to provide a low-temperature environment for the storage space. Therefore, at this time, the rotating speed of the low-temperature stage compressor is reduced, and the rotating speed of the high-temperature stage compressor is increased. In this way, reducing the rotating speed of the low-temperature stage compressor can reduce the refrigerant flow of the low-temperature stage refrigeration system, so that the required refrigeration capacity of the low-temperature stage flow path in the intermediate heat exchanger is reduced, the heat load of the high-temperature stage flow path is reduced, and the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is reduced. At the same time, increasing the rotating speed of the high-temperature stage compressor can increase the refrigerant flow of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system, so that the refrigeration capacity in the high-temperature stage flow path in the intermediate heat exchanger is increased, and the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is further reduced. Optionally, T3=TH1+M3, wherein M3 is an intermediate heat exchanger temperature adjustment value in the rapid cooling mode, and the value range is 0 to 20℃, the default value is 3℃, and the step size is 1℃.

[0080] If the new temperature satisfies T4<th'<T3 (T4 is the fourth temperature threshold), it indicates that the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is in an appropriate range after the low-temperature stage compressor operates at the first low-temperature stage set rotating speed. Therefore, at this time, the rotating speed of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor is maintained unchanged. In this way, in the initial stage of cooling, due to the refrigerant heat recovery of the regenerator, the suction temperature of the low-temperature stage compressor is high when it is initially started, which can cause the exhaust temperature to be high, thereby easily causing the low-temperature stage compressor to have a heat protection phenomenon. When the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is stable in a certain temperature range, the evaporation pressure of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system and the condensation pressure of the low-temperature stage refrigeration system can quickly reach a relatively stable state, thereby avoiding the problem of heat protection of the low-temperature stage compressor. Optionally, T4=TH1+M4, wherein M4 is an intermediate heat exchanger temperature adjustment lower limit value in the rapid cooling mode, and is less than or equal to 0. Optionally, the value range of M4 is -20℃ to 0, the default value is -3℃, and the adjustment step size is 1℃.

[0081] If the new temperature satisfies th'≤T4, it indicates that after the low-temperature stage compressor runs at the first low-temperature stage set speed, the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is relatively low, and the refrigerating capacity is excessive. Therefore, at this time, the speed of the high-temperature stage compressor is reduced, and the speed of the low-temperature stage compressor is increased. In this way, when the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is relatively low, the condensing pressure of the low-temperature stage refrigeration system is reduced, and then the heat load of the intermediate heat exchanger in the high-temperature stage flow path is reduced. At this time, the refrigerating capacity of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system can be reduced, and the refrigerating capacity of the low-temperature stage refrigeration system can be increased.

[0082] In this way, by using the third temperature threshold and the fourth temperature threshold, it is determined whether the new temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is within the appropriate temperature range, and the speeds of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor are adjusted based on the determination result. In this way, sufficient refrigerating capacity can be provided, and excessive refrigerating capacity can be avoided, and the compressor can be prevented from being repeatedly started and stopped, so that the energy consumption of the refrigeration system is reduced.

[0083] Optionally, after the low-temperature stage compressor runs at the first low-temperature stage set speed, the processor acquires the new temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger after a third set time M0, that is, after the temperature of the storage space is stabilized. This is beneficial to reducing the energy consumption of the refrigeration system. M0 is the system compressor speed adjustment time interval in the rapid cooling mode, and the value range is 10 seconds to 120 seconds, and the default value is 20 seconds, and the adjustment step is 5 seconds.

[0084] Optionally, when the new temperature satisfies T4<th'<T3, after the first preset time M5, the processor controls the low-temperature stage compressor to run at the highest speed RL2, without changing the current speed of the high-temperature stage compressor. In this way, in the initial stage of cooling, due to the refrigerant heat recovery of the regenerator, the suction temperature of the low-temperature stage compressor is relatively high when the low-temperature stage compressor is initially started, which can cause the exhaust temperature to be relatively high, thereby easily causing the low-temperature stage compressor to have a heat protection phenomenon. When the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is stabilized within a certain temperature range, the evaporation pressure of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system and the condensing pressure of the low-temperature stage refrigeration system can quickly reach a relatively stable state, thereby avoiding the problem of heat protection of the low-temperature stage compressor. With the operation of the system, the heat recovery temperature of the low-temperature stage refrigeration system is reduced, so that the suction temperature of the low-temperature stage compressor is reduced, and the exhaust temperature is also reduced. At this time, the speed of the low-temperature stage compressor can be increased, and a larger refrigerating capacity can be obtained.

[0085] Optionally, M5 is the compressor speed stabilization maintenance time in the rapid cooling mode, and the value range is 5 minutes to 60 minutes, and the default value is 10 minutes, and the adjustment step is 5 minutes.

[0086] In combination with Figure 4 As shown in FIG. 1, the disclosure provides another method for controlling a refrigeration system, which comprises the following steps.

[0087] S100, the processor acquires a space temperature of a storage space corresponding to the refrigeration system.

[0088] S200, the processor controls the refrigeration system to enter a rapid cooling mode when the space temperature is greater than or equal to a first temperature threshold.

[0089] The processor controls the refrigeration system to enter the rapid cooling mode, comprising:

[0090] S210, the processor controls the high-temperature stage compressor to operate at a first high-temperature stage set speed.

[0091] S220, the processor controls the operation of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor according to the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger.

[0092] S300, the processor reacquires the space temperature of the storage space.

[0093] S400, the processor controls the operation of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor according to the reacquired space temperature.

[0094] After controlling the operation of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor based on the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger, the space temperature of the storage space is reacquired. Then, based on the reacquired space temperature, the operation of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor is re-regulated. In this way, negative feedback adjustment can be performed through the real-time temperature and the target temperature of the space, and the compressor speed can be adjusted in real time to achieve the best refrigeration capacity and avoid unnecessary energy loss.

[0095] Optionally, if tl'≤T5 (tl' is the new space temperature of the storage space, and T5 is the fifth temperature threshold), it indicates that the space temperature is too low, which may cause the temperature sensor to fail to normally detect the temperature. Therefore, at this time, the refrigeration system is controlled to exit the rapid cooling mode, and the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor can also be controlled to stop. Optionally, T5=TL+M6, wherein M6 is a sensor stop temperature adjustment value in the rapid cooling mode, which is less than or equal to 0. The value range of M6 is -10℃ to 0, and the default value is -2℃, and the adjustment step is 1℃.

[0096] If tl'>T5, it indicates that the space temperature of the storage space is relatively high, and the temperature needs to be lowered again to provide cold energy. Then, the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is reacquired, and the operation of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor is controlled according to the reacquired temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger, that is, S220 is re-executed.

[0097] In this way, the operation of the high-temperature compressor and the low-temperature compressor is controlled in a cycle based on the reacquired space temperature and the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger, the dynamic stability of the refrigeration capacity is achieved by controlling the speed change of the compressor, and the frequent start and stop of the compressor is avoided to reduce the energy consumption of the refrigeration system.

[0098] In combination Figure 5 As shown in the embodiments of the present disclosure, another method for controlling a refrigeration system is provided, comprising:

[0099] S500, the processor acquires the space temperature of the storage space corresponding to the refrigeration system.

[0100] S600, the processor controls the refrigeration system to enter a normal cooling mode when the space temperature meets a second set temperature condition.

[0101] In S600, the processor controls the refrigeration system to enter the normal cooling mode, comprising:

[0102] S610, the processor controls the high-temperature stage compressor to operate at a second high-temperature stage set rotating speed.

[0103] S620, the processor controls the operation of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor according to the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger.

[0104] The refrigeration system is installed in a refrigeration device. Optionally, the refrigeration device is a refrigerator, a freezer, a low-temperature preservation box or the like. The refrigeration system is a cascade refrigeration system, comprising a high-temperature stage compressor, a low-temperature stage compressor and an intermediate heat exchanger. The storage space corresponding to the refrigeration system is the storage space of the refrigeration device, such as the inner space of the refrigerator, the inner space of the freezer, the inner space of the low-temperature preservation box. The processor of the refrigeration system is in communication connection with a temperature sensor arranged in the storage space to acquire the space temperature of the storage space. The outlet of the low-temperature stage refrigerant of the intermediate heat exchanger is provided with a temperature sensor, and the processor of the refrigeration system is in communication connection with the temperature sensor to acquire the outlet temperature of the low-temperature stage refrigerant of the intermediate heat exchanger (hereinafter referred to as the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger).

[0105] The processor judges whether the acquired space temperature meets a second set temperature condition. If yes, it means that the current storage space needs to be cooled, but the space temperature and the target temperature are not very different, and it is not necessary to cool quickly, otherwise it is easy to cause temperature overshoot. Therefore, the refrigeration system is controlled to enter a normal cooling mode.

[0106] When the refrigeration system is controlled to enter the normal cooling mode, first, the high-temperature stage compressor is controlled to run at the second high-temperature stage set speed, which is equivalent to controlling the high-temperature stage compressor to start. In this way, the refrigerant circulation loop in which the high-temperature stage compressor is located can exchange heat with the refrigerant circulation loop in which the low-temperature stage compressor is located, so that the refrigerant circulation loop in which the low-temperature stage compressor is located can reach a lower refrigeration temperature. Optionally, the second high-temperature stage set speed is less than the first high-temperature stage set speed. Optionally, the second high-temperature stage set speed is the minimum speed RH1 of the high-temperature stage compressor, and the value range is 2000 rpm to 5000 rpm, and the default value is 2000 rpm, and the adjustment step is 100 rpm.

[0107] The temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger can reflect the refrigeration temperature of the storage space, and thus it can be determined whether the low-temperature storage requirement of the goods can be met. Therefore, after the high-temperature stage compressor runs at the second high-temperature stage set speed, the processor controls the operation of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor according to the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger, so that the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger can match the refrigeration requirement.

[0108] By using the method for controlling the refrigeration system provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, whether the storage space needs normal cooling is determined based on the space temperature of the storage space corresponding to the refrigeration system. If the space temperature meets the second set temperature condition, the refrigeration system is controlled to enter the normal cooling mode. The high-temperature stage compressor is first controlled to run at a smaller second high-temperature stage set speed to achieve normal cooling. Then, the speed of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor is controlled based on the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger. The temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger can represent the refrigeration temperature of the storage space by the refrigeration system. By controlling the speed of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor to adjust the space temperature in real time, the number of start / stop of the compressors and the excess refrigeration capacity caused by running at a fixed speed are reduced, so that the energy consumption of the refrigeration system is reduced.

[0109] In addition, by intelligently adjusting the refrigeration system through the above logic, the excessively high exhaust / back gas temperature of the compressor caused by temperature abnormalities can be prevented, and the pressure state in the system can be improved, and the reliability of the system can be improved.

[0110] Optionally, the second set temperature condition includes: tl < T1 and tl ≥ T12, where tl is the space temperature of the storage space, T1 is the first temperature threshold, and T12 is the twelfth temperature threshold. When the space temperature meets tl < T1, the refrigeration system does not meet the condition of entering the rapid cooling mode. When the space temperature also meets tl ≥ T12, the refrigeration system meets the condition of entering the normal mode.

[0111] Optionally, T12 = TL + M8, wherein TL is a target temperature of the low-temperature stage refrigeration system, and has a value range of -40 to -86℃, and a default value of -80℃, and an adjustment step of 1℃; M8 is an adjustment value of the space temperature in the normal cooling mode, and is less than or equal to 0. M8 has a value range of -5 to 0, a default value of -1℃, and an adjustment step of 0.1℃.

[0112] Optionally, the processor controls the high-temperature stage compressor to run at the second high-temperature stage set speed for a fourth set time length M9, and then controls the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor according to the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger after the space temperature is stable. The fourth set time length M9 is a low-temperature stage compressor start-up delay time length after the high-temperature stage compressor is started in the normal cooling mode. In this way, the temperature of the storage space can be stabilized before the compressor is adjusted, which is beneficial to reducing the energy consumption of the refrigeration system. Optionally, the fourth set time length M9 has a value range of 0 to 20 minutes, a default value of 1 minute, and an adjustment step of 1 minute.

[0113] In combination with Figure 6 The embodiment of the present disclosure provides another method for controlling a refrigeration system, which comprises the following steps:

[0114] S500, the processor acquires a space temperature of a storage space corresponding to the refrigeration system.

[0115] S600, the processor controls the refrigeration system to enter a normal cooling mode when the space temperature meets a second set temperature condition.

[0116] In the step S600, the processor controls the refrigeration system to enter the normal cooling mode, which comprises the following steps:

[0117] S610, the processor controls a high-temperature stage compressor to run at a second high-temperature stage set speed.

[0118] S621, the processor controls a low-temperature stage compressor to run at a second low-temperature stage set speed when the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is less than or equal to a sixth temperature threshold.

[0119] The temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is compared with a sixth temperature threshold. If th≤ T6 (th is the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger; T6 is the sixth temperature threshold, which is also the target temperature TH2 of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system in the normal cooling mode), it indicates that the temperature of the storage space is relatively low, and the cold energy at this time is sufficient to maintain the low-temperature storage space. Therefore, the low-temperature stage compressor is controlled to operate at a second low-temperature stage set speed, so as to avoid energy waste caused by excessive cold energy. Optionally, the second low-temperature stage set speed is less than the first low-temperature stage set speed. Optionally, the second low-temperature stage set speed is the minimum speed RL1 of the low-temperature stage compressor, because the compressor generates less mechanical loss at low speed, and a higher COP (Coefficient Of Performance, energy and heat conversion ratio, referred to as energy efficiency ratio) value can be obtained. The value range is 2000 rpm to 5000 rpm, the default value is 2000 rpm, and the adjustment step is 100 rpm.

[0120] Optionally, T6 is the target temperature TH2 of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system in the normal cooling mode, and is less than or equal to 0. The value range of TH2 is -55°C to 0, the default value is -30°C, and the adjustment step is 1°C.

[0121] In combination with Figure 7 As shown in FIG. 1, the disclosure provides another method for controlling a refrigeration system, comprising:

[0122] S500, the processor acquires the space temperature of the storage space corresponding to the refrigeration system.

[0123] S600, the processor controls the refrigeration system to enter the normal cooling mode when the space temperature meets a second set temperature condition.

[0124] In S600, the processor controls the refrigeration system to enter the normal cooling mode, comprising:

[0125] S610, the processor controls the high-temperature stage compressor to operate at a second high-temperature stage set speed.

[0126] S621, the processor controls the low-temperature stage compressor to operate at a second low-temperature stage set speed when the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is less than or equal to the sixth temperature threshold.

[0127] S622, the processor acquires a new temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger and a new space temperature.

[0128] S623, the processor adjusts the operation of the high-temperature stage compressor according to the new temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger.

[0129] S624, the processor adjusts the operation of the low-temperature stage compressor according to the new space temperature.

[0130] In the normal regulation case, the priority of the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is higher than the priority of the space temperature, and when the two temperatures conflict, the rotation speed of the compressor needs to be regulated by the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger first. Therefore, when the rotation speed of the compressor is regulated after the low-temperature-stage compressor is controlled to run at the second low-temperature-stage set rotation speed, the compressor is regulated based on the intermediate heat exchanger first, and then regulated based on the space temperature.

[0131] When the compressor is regulated, the operation of the high-temperature-stage compressor is regulated first, and then the operation of the low-temperature-stage compressor is regulated, because it is desired that the frequency of the high-temperature-stage compressor changes faster, so that the high-temperature-stage compressor responds faster than the low-temperature-stage compressor. That is, after the high-temperature-stage compressor is controlled to refrigerate, the low-temperature-stage compressor is controlled to refrigerate, the high-temperature-stage compressor is more sensitive than the low-temperature-stage compressor, and the high-temperature-stage compressor can be more matched to the working condition of the low-temperature-stage compressor, so that the high-temperature-stage compressor changes faster, and when the rotation speed of the low-temperature-stage compressor changes, the high-temperature-stage compressor can quickly respond, thereby being more conducive to energy saving and consumption reduction of the refrigeration system.

[0132] Optionally, after the low-temperature-stage compressor is controlled to run at the second low-temperature-stage set rotation speed, the processor acquires a new temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger after a fifth set time length M10, that is, after the space temperature is stable, which is conducive to reducing the energy consumption of the refrigeration system. Optionally, M10 is a system high-temperature-stage compressor rotation speed adjustment time interval in a normal cooling mode, and the value range is 10 to 120 seconds, and the default value is 30 seconds, and the adjustment step is 5 seconds.

[0133] Optionally, after the low-temperature-stage compressor is controlled to run at the second low-temperature-stage set rotation speed, the processor reacquires the space temperature of the storage space after a sixth set time length M11, and controls the operation of the low-temperature-stage compressor based on the reacquired space temperature. M11>M10. In this way, after the sixth set time length M11, the space temperature is stable, and then the rotation speed of the low-temperature-stage compressor is adjusted based on the space temperature, which is conducive to reducing the energy consumption of the refrigeration system. In this way, the high-temperature-stage compressor and the low-temperature-stage compressor are respectively and independently controlled in different timing periods, and then the space temperature of the storage space is refrigerated to reach the target temperature. Optionally, M11 is a low-temperature-stage compressor rotation speed adjustment time interval in a normal cooling mode, and the value range is 10 to 120 seconds, and the default value is 60 seconds, and the adjustment step is 5 seconds.

[0134] Optionally, S623, the processor adjusts the operation of the high-temperature-stage compressor according to the new temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger, including:

[0135] The processor increases the rotation speed of the high-temperature-stage compressor when the new temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is greater than or equal to a seventh temperature threshold.

[0136] The processor controls the high-temperature stage compressor to maintain the current rotating speed in the case that the new temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is less than the seventh temperature threshold and greater than the eighth temperature threshold.

[0137] The processor reduces the rotating speed of the high-temperature stage compressor in the case that the new temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is less than or equal to the eighth temperature threshold.

[0138] If the new temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger satisfies th'≥T7(th' is the new temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger, and T7 is the seventh temperature threshold), it indicates that the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is still high after the low-temperature stage compressor runs at the second low-temperature stage set rotating speed, and the refrigerating capacity is insufficient to provide a low-temperature environment for the storage space. Therefore, the rotating speed of the high-temperature stage compressor is increased to increase the refrigerating capacity. Alternatively, T7=TH2+M12, wherein TH2 is the target temperature of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system in the normal cooling mode, and the value range is-55℃ to 0, and the default value is-30℃, and the adjustment step is 1℃; M12 is the high-temperature stage compressor rotating speed adjustment value in the normal cooling mode, and is greater than or equal to 0. The value range of M12 is 0 to 20℃, the default value is 3℃, and the adjustment step is 1℃.

[0139] If the new temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger satisfies T8<th'<T7(T8 is the eighth temperature threshold), it indicates that the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is in an appropriate range after the low-temperature stage compressor runs at the second low-temperature stage set rotating speed. Therefore, the rotating speed of the high-temperature stage compressor is maintained unchanged, so that the space temperature is maintained stable by controlling the high-temperature stage compressor to maintain a relatively stable rotating speed. Alternatively, T8=TH2+M13, wherein M13 is less than or equal to 0, and is the high-temperature stage compressor rotating speed adjustment value in the normal cooling mode, and is less than or equal to 0. The value range of M13 is-20℃ to 0, the default value is-3℃, and the adjustment step is 1℃.

[0140] If the new temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger satisfies th'≤T8, it indicates that the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is low after the low-temperature stage compressor runs at the second low-temperature stage set rotating speed, and the refrigerating capacity is excessive. Therefore, the rotating speed of the high-temperature stage compressor is reduced, so that unnecessary energy consumption is reduced.

[0141] In this way, by the seventh temperature threshold and the eighth temperature threshold, it is determined whether the new temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger is in an appropriate range, and the rotating speed of the high-temperature stage compressor is adjusted based on the determination result, so that sufficient refrigerating capacity can be provided, the refrigerating capacity can be avoided to be excessive, and the compressor can be avoided to be repeatedly started and stopped, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the refrigeration system.

[0142] In S623, the processor adjusts the operation of the low-temperature stage compressor according to the new space temperature, including:

[0143] The processor increases the rotation speed of the low-temperature stage compressor when the new space temperature is greater than or equal to a tenth temperature threshold.

[0144] The processor controls the low-temperature stage compressor to maintain the current rotation speed when the new space temperature is less than the tenth temperature threshold and greater than an eleventh temperature threshold.

[0145] The processor decreases the rotation speed of the low-temperature stage compressor when the new space temperature is less than or equal to the eleventh temperature threshold.

[0146] If tl''≥T10 (tl'' is the new space temperature of the storage space, and T10 is the tenth temperature threshold), it indicates that the space temperature is high, and the space temperature needs to be reduced, and the rotation speed of the low-temperature stage compressor is increased. If T11<tl''<T10 (T11 is the eleventh temperature threshold), it indicates that the space temperature is in an appropriate temperature range, and the low-temperature stage compressor is controlled to maintain the current rotation speed, so as to maintain the space temperature at the current level. If tl''≤T11, it indicates that the space temperature is low, which will cause waste of cold energy, and the rotation speed of the low-temperature compressor is decreased to reduce the generation of cold energy, and to ensure the low-temperature storage environment. In this way, the rotation speed of the low-temperature compressor is adjusted based on the new space temperature, the space temperature of the storage space can be maintained in an appropriate low-temperature range, and the situation of excessive or insufficient cold energy can be reduced, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the refrigeration system.

[0147] Optionally, T10=TL+M14, where M14 is an upper adjustment temperature value of the target temperature of the low-temperature stage refrigeration system in the normal cooling mode, and is greater than or equal to 0. The value range of M14 is 0-5°C, the default value is 1°C, and the adjustment step is 0.1°C.

[0148] Optionally, T11=TL+M15, where M15 is a lower adjustment temperature value of the target temperature of the low-temperature stage refrigeration system in the normal cooling mode, and is less than or equal to 0. The value range of M15 is -5-0, the default value is -1.5, and the adjustment step is 0.1°C.

[0149] In combination Figure 8 As shown in the figure, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides another method for controlling a refrigeration system, comprising:

[0150] S500, the processor acquires the space temperature of the storage space corresponding to the refrigeration system.

[0151] S600, the processor controls the refrigeration system to enter a normal cooling mode when the space temperature satisfies a second set temperature condition.

[0152] In S600, the processor controls the refrigeration system to enter the normal cooling mode, comprising:

[0153] S610, the processor controls the high-temperature stage compressor to run at a second high-temperature stage setting speed.

[0154] S620, the processor controls the running of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor according to the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger.

[0155] S700, the processor reacquires the space temperature of the storage space.

[0156] S800, the processor controls the running of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor according to the reacquired space temperature.

[0157] After controlling the running of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor based on the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger, the space temperature of the storage space is reacquired. Then, based on the reacquired space temperature, the running of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor is re-regulated. In this way, through multiple cycles of regulating the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor, temperature overshoot and repeated start and stop of the compressor are avoided, and the space temperature can be gradually stabilized at the target temperature while consuming low energy.

[0158] Optionally, if tl'≤T9 (tl' is the new space temperature of the storage space, and T9 is the ninth temperature threshold value), it indicates that the space temperature is too low, which may cause the temperature sensor to fail to normally detect the temperature. Therefore, at this time, the refrigeration system is controlled to exit the normal cooling mode, and the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor are also controlled to stop running. Optionally, T9=TL+M8, where TL is the target temperature of the low-temperature stage refrigeration system, and the value range is -40℃ to -80℃, and the default value is -80℃, and the adjustment step is 1℃; M8 is a temperature adjustment value of the storage space in the normal cooling mode, and is less than or equal to 0. The value range of M8 is -5℃ to 0, the default value is -1℃, and the adjustment step is 0.1℃.

[0159] If tl'>T9, it indicates that the storage space has not reached the target space temperature, and the running of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor is re-regulated, that is, S622 and S623 are re-executed. Optionally, S622 is re-executed after an interval of a fifth setting time M10, and S623 is re-executed after an interval of a sixth setting time M10.

[0160] Adjusting the space temperature of the storage space to the target temperature is the ultimate goal, so after one round of adjustment of the speed of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor, whether the speed of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor needs to be adjusted again is judged based on the space temperature, which is beneficial to accurately regulate the speed of the compressor and accurately adjust the space temperature.

[0161] In combination with Figure 9 As shown in FIG. 8, another method for controlling a refrigeration system is provided, which comprises:

[0162] S500, the processor acquires a space temperature of a storage space corresponding to the refrigeration system.

[0163] S600, the processor controls the refrigeration system to enter a normal cooling mode when the space temperature meets a second set temperature condition.

[0164] S600, the processor controls the refrigeration system to enter a normal cooling mode, comprising:

[0165] S610, the processor controls the high-temperature stage compressor to operate at a second high-temperature stage set rotating speed.

[0166] S620, the processor controls the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor according to the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger.

[0167] S700, the processor reacquires the space temperature of the storage space.

[0168] S800, the processor controls the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor according to the reacquired space temperature.

[0169] S900, the processor controls the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor to stop operating when the space temperature of the storage space does not meet the first set temperature condition for entering the rapid cooling mode and does not meet the second set temperature condition for entering the normal cooling mode after S500 is executed.

[0170] After acquiring the space temperature of the storage space corresponding to the refrigeration system, it is determined whether the space temperature meets the first set temperature condition and the second set temperature condition. If the above two set temperature conditions are not met at the same time, that is, tl < T1 and tl < T12, it indicates that the space temperature at this time is relatively low, and the refrigeration system does not need to provide cold energy. Therefore, the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor are controlled to stop operating, and all the fans can also be controlled to stop operating. In this way, all the compressors and all the fans are controlled to stop operating in the case where refrigeration is not necessary, so that the energy consumption of the refrigeration system can be reduced.

[0171] In combination with Figure 10 the drawing, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides another method for controlling a refrigeration system, comprising:

[0172] S500, the processor acquires a space temperature of a storage space corresponding to the refrigeration system.

[0173] S600, the processor controls the refrigeration system to enter a normal cooling mode when the space temperature meets a second set temperature condition.

[0174] S600, the processor controls the refrigeration system to enter a normal cooling mode, comprising:

[0175] S610, the processor controls the high-temperature stage compressor to operate at a second high-temperature stage set rotating speed.

[0177] S700, the processor reacquires the space temperature of the storage space.

[0178] S800, the processor controls the operation of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor according to the reacquired space temperature.

[0179] S900, after performing S500, the processor controls the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor to stop operating in a case where the space temperature of the storage space does not satisfy the first set temperature condition for entering the rapid cooling mode and does not satisfy the second set temperature condition for entering the normal cooling mode.

[0180] S1000, the processor controls the refrigeration system to selectively enter the rapid cooling mode or the normal cooling mode according to the temperature range in which the new space temperature is located in a case where the new space temperature is greater than or equal to a thirteenth temperature threshold.

[0181] After the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor are controlled to stop operating, the space temperature of the storage space is continuously acquired, and it is determined whether the new space temperature satisfies the condition for starting the compressor. If tl”’≥T13 (tl”’ is the new space temperature acquired after the compressor stops operating, and T13 is the thirteenth temperature threshold), it indicates that the space temperature of the storage space rises to a higher temperature at this time, and it is determined whether the new space temperature tl”’ satisfies the first set temperature condition or the second set temperature condition, that is, S100 to S200 and S500 to S600 are performed, and the refrigeration system is controlled to selectively enter the rapid cooling mode or the normal cooling mode. In this way, the refrigeration system is matched to operate the rapid cooling or the normal cooling based on the new space temperature, which can not only realize the reduction of the space temperature to a suitable low-temperature range, but also match the suitable rotating speed of the compressor to avoid the excess of the refrigeration capacity, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the refrigeration system.

[0182] Optionally, T13=TL+M7, where M7 is a compressor start-up upper limit temperature value, which is greater than or equal to 0. The value range of M7 is 0 to 5℃, the default value is 1℃, and the adjustment step is 0.1℃.

At the same time, the processor acquires the outlet temperature of the condenser through the temperature sensor arranged at the outlet of the condenser of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system. Then, the running of the fan is controlled according to the running state of the high-temperature stage compressor and the outlet temperature of the condenser of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system. This is because: the fan is directly related to the condenser of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system, and has no direct relationship with the condenser of the low-temperature stage refrigeration system. The condenser of the low-temperature stage refrigeration system is equivalent to the evaporator of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system. The working condition of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system affects the working condition of the low-temperature stage refrigeration system. The fan affects the working condition of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system. Therefore, the running of the fan is controlled based on the running state of the high-temperature stage compressor and the outlet temperature of the condenser of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system.

[0219] By using the method for controlling a refrigeration system provided by the present disclosure, the running of the fan is controlled based on the running state of the high-temperature stage compressor and the outlet temperature of the condenser of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system. The fan speed and the on-off running state can be automatically adjusted according to the required cooling air volume of the condenser of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system, so that the air volume matches the running state of the refrigeration system, reduces the noise, and prolongs the service life of the fan.

[0220] Optionally, S1200, the processor controls the running of the fan according to the running state of the high-temperature stage compressor and the outlet temperature of the condenser, comprising:

[0221] In the case that the high-temperature stage compressor is started, the processor:

[0222] The processor determines the target fan speed corresponding to the current outlet temperature of the condenser of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system according to the correlation between the outlet temperature of the condenser of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system and the fan speed.

[0223] The processor controls all the fans to run at the target speed.

[0224] The high-temperature stage refrigeration system has a pre-stored correlation between the outlet temperature of the condenser of the high-temperature stage refrigeration system (hereinafter referred to as "the outlet temperature of the condenser") and the fan speed. When the high-temperature stage compressor is started, it indicates that the refrigeration system is running refrigeration, and the processor calls the above-mentioned correlation to determine the target fan speed corresponding to the outlet temperature of the condenser, and controls all the fans to run at the target fan speed. In this way, the outlet temperature of the condenser is matched with the fan speed, and then the required air volume of the refrigeration system is matched, and the noise is reduced.

[0225] Optionally, the correlation between the outlet temperature of the condenser and the fan speed includes one or more corresponding relationships between the outlet temperature and the fan speed. Specifically, different temperature ranges are pre-divided, and different temperature ranges correspond to different fan speeds. Optionally, the greater the upper limit value of the temperature range, the higher the corresponding fan speed. Specifically, when the outlet temperature of the condenser is greater than or equal to the fourteenth temperature threshold (tc≥T14, tc is the outlet temperature of the condenser, and T14 is the fourteenth temperature threshold), the corresponding fan speed is the first set speed. When the outlet temperature of the condenser is less than the fourteenth temperature threshold and greater than the fifteenth temperature threshold (T15<tc<T14, T15 is the fifteenth temperature threshold), the corresponding fan speed is the second set speed. When the outlet temperature of the condenser is less than or equal to the fifteenth temperature threshold (tc≤T15), the corresponding fan speed is the third set speed. Among them, the first set speed is greater than the third set speed, and the third set speed is greater than the second set speed. Optionally, the first set speed is the highest speed of the fan, the second set speed is the lowest speed of the fan, and the third set speed is an intermediate speed between the highest speed and the lowest speed. In this way, the outlet temperature of the condenser matches different fan speeds, which can adjust the fan speed to an appropriate speed to avoid insufficient or excessive speed adjustment.

[0226] It should be noted that those skilled in the art can divide more temperature ranges according to needs, and then correspond to more gear fan speeds, so as to more accurately adjust the speed of the fan.

[0227] Optionally, T14=ta+M16, wherein ta is the ambient temperature, and M16 is a temperature adjustment upper limit value greater than or equal to 0. The value range of M16 is 0 to 20℃, the default value is 4℃, and the adjustment step is 0.5℃.

[0228] Optionally, T15=ta+M17, wherein M17 is a temperature adjustment lower limit value greater than or equal to 0. The value range of M17 is 0℃ to 10℃, the default value is 2℃, and the adjustment step is 0.5℃.

[0229] Optionally, the processor starts timing after controlling all the fans to run at the target fan speed. After the seventh set time period M18, the outlet temperature of the condenser is re-acquired, and based on the re-acquired outlet temperature, the speed of all the fans is controlled according to the control logic of the fan speed described above. The specific control logic is described above in S1200, and will not be repeated here. In this way, waiting for the seventh set time period M18 makes the outlet temperature of the condenser tend to be stable, so as to ensure the accuracy of the subsequent adjustment of the fan speed.

[0230] Optionally, M18 is the fan speed adjustment time interval, and the value range is 10 seconds to 120 seconds, and the default value is 30 seconds, and the adjustment step is 5 seconds.

[0231] Optionally, the processor determines whether the high-temperature stage compressor is started again at intervals of an eighth set time period under the condition that the high-temperature stage compressor is not started, and controls the speed of the fan in combination with the outlet temperature of the condenser. Optionally, the eighth set time period is 1 minute to 2 minutes. In this way, the running state of the compressor is continuously monitored, so that the fan speed can be accurately controlled.

[0232] The following will be combined with Figure 13 to specifically describe the regulation and control of the fan speed by the embodiment of the present disclosure:

[0233] S1301, the processor acquires the running state of the high-temperature stage compressor.

[0234] S1302, the processor determines whether the high-temperature stage compressor is started; if yes, S1303 is executed, and if no, S1309 is executed.

[0235] S1303, the processor determines whether the outlet temperature of the condenser satisfies tc≥ta+M16; if yes, S1304 is executed; and if no, S1305 is executed.

[0236] S1304, the processor controls all the fans to run at the highest speed, and then S1308 is executed.

[0237] S1305, the processor determines whether the outlet temperature of the condenser satisfies tc≤ta+M17; if yes, S1306 is executed; and if no, S1307 is executed.

[0238] S1306, the processor controls all the fans to run at the intermediate speed, and then S1308 is executed.

[0239] S1307, the processor controls all the fans to run at the lowest speed, and then S1308 is executed.

[0240] S1308, the processor times M18 seconds, and then S1303 is executed.

[0241] S1309, the processor delays for 1 minute, and then performs S1301.

[0242] Optionally, the regulation logic of the fan rotating speed provided by the embodiment can be simultaneously operated with the regulation logic of the compressor rotating speed in the fast cooling mode and the regulation logic of the compressor rotating speed in the normal cooling mode (as described above). In this way, the matching control of the compressor and the fan can reduce unnecessary energy consumption and improve the system response speed and control accuracy. Moreover, by designing different control modes, the compressor and the fan are coupled and controlled for different working conditions, which can improve the reliability of the system. Figure 11 ) simultaneously. In this way, the matching control of the compressor and the fan can reduce unnecessary energy consumption and improve the system response speed and control accuracy. Moreover, by designing different control modes, the compressor and the fan are coupled and controlled for different working conditions, which can improve the reliability of the system.

[0243] As shown in Figure 14 The embodiment of the present disclosure provides a device 140 for controlling a refrigeration system, comprising: a first acquisition module 1401 and a first control module 1402. The first acquisition module 1401 is configured to acquire the space temperature of the storage space corresponding to the refrigeration system. The first control module 1402 is configured to control the refrigeration system to enter a fast cooling mode when the space temperature is greater than or equal to a first temperature threshold.

[0244] The first control module 1402 comprises: a first control submodule 1412 and a second control submodule 1422. The first control submodule 1412 is configured to control the high-temperature stage compressor to operate at a first high-temperature stage set rotating speed. The second control submodule 1422 is configured to control the operation of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor according to the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger.

[0245] The device 140 for controlling a refrigeration system provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is used to determine whether the storage space needs fast cooling based on the space temperature of the storage space corresponding to the refrigeration system. If the space temperature is greater than or equal to a first temperature threshold, it means that the temperature of the storage space is high, and the refrigeration system is controlled to enter a fast cooling mode. The high-temperature stage compressor is first controlled to operate at a first high-temperature stage set rotating speed to achieve fast cooling. Then, the rotating speeds of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor are controlled based on the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger. The temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger can represent the refrigeration temperature of the storage space by the refrigeration system, and the space temperature is adjusted in real time by controlling the rotating speeds of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor, thereby reducing the start-stop frequency of the compressor and the excessive refrigeration capacity caused by the fixed rotating speed operation, so as to reduce the energy consumption of the refrigeration system.

[0246] As shown in Figure 15As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a device 150 for controlling a refrigeration system, comprising: a second acquisition module 1501 and a second control module 1502. The second acquisition module 1501 is configured to acquire a space temperature of a storage space corresponding to the refrigeration system. The second control module 1502 is configured to control the refrigeration system to enter a normal cooling mode when the space temperature meets a second set temperature condition.

[0247] The second control module 1502 comprises: a third control submodule 1512 and a fourth control submodule 1522. The third control submodule 1512 is configured to control the high-temperature stage compressor to operate at a second high-temperature stage set speed. The fourth control submodule 1522 is configured to control the operation of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor according to the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger.

[0248] By using the device 150 for controlling a refrigeration system provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, whether the storage space needs normal cooling is determined based on the space temperature of the storage space corresponding to the refrigeration system. If the space temperature meets the second set temperature condition, the refrigeration system is controlled to enter the normal cooling mode. The high-temperature stage compressor is first controlled to operate at a smaller second high-temperature stage set speed to achieve normal cooling. Then, the speeds of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor are controlled based on the temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger. The temperature of the intermediate heat exchanger can represent the refrigeration temperature of the storage space by the refrigeration system. By controlling the speeds of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor, the space temperature is adjusted in real time, the number of start-stop of the compressors is reduced, and the excess refrigeration capacity caused by the fixed speed operation is reduced, so as to reduce the energy consumption of the refrigeration system.

[0249] In combination with Figure 16 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a device 160 for controlling a refrigeration system, comprising a processor 161 and a memory 162. Optionally, the device 160 can further comprise a communication interface 163 and a bus 164. The processor 161, the communication interface 163, and the memory 162 can complete mutual communication through the bus 164. The communication interface 163 can be used for information transmission. The processor 161 can invoke the logic instructions in the memory 162 to execute the method for controlling a refrigeration system of the above-mentioned embodiments.

[0250] In addition, the logic instructions in the memory 162 described above can be implemented in the form of a software functional unit and sold or used as an independent product, which can be stored in a computer readable storage medium.

[0251] The memory 162 can be used to store software programs, computer executable programs, such as program instructions / modules corresponding to the method in the embodiments of the present disclosure. The processor 161 executes the functions of the application and data processing, that is, implements the method for controlling the refrigeration system in the above embodiments by running the program instructions / modules stored in the memory 162.

[0252] The memory 162 can include a program storage area and a data storage area, wherein the program storage area can store an operating system and application programs required by at least one function; the data storage area can store data created according to the use of the terminal device, etc. In addition, the memory 162 can include a high-speed random access memory, and can also include a non-volatile memory.

[0253] In combination with FIGS. 1-3, Figure 17 and Figure 18 As shown in the embodiments of the present disclosure, a refrigeration system 100 is provided, which includes a compressor, a first heat exchanger and a second heat exchanger connected in sequence through refrigerant pipelines.

[0254] The first heat exchanger serves as a condenser, and the second heat exchanger serves as an evaporator. The refrigerant flowing out of the compressor is condensed in the first heat exchanger and evaporated in the second heat exchanger.

[0255] The heat exchange system further includes a heat exchange structure, which includes a first heat exchange component and a second heat exchange component capable of heat exchange, the first heat exchange component being communicated between the exhaust port of the compressor and the inlet of the first heat exchanger, and the second heat exchange component being communicated between the outlet of the second heat exchanger and the return air port of the compressor.

[0256] The first heat exchange component and the second heat exchange component are capable of heat exchange, so that the refrigerant flowing out of the outlet of the second heat exchanger can exchange heat with the refrigerant flowing out of the exhaust port of the compressor. In this way, the lubricating oil mixed in the refrigerant flowing out of the second heat exchanger can be heated by the refrigerant flowing out of the exhaust port of the compressor, and the oil becomes more fluid after being heated, and the oil flows back to the compressor, so that the oil separator can be cancelled.

[0257] Compared with the case where the first heat exchange component is arranged between the outlet of the first heat exchanger and the inlet of the second heat exchanger, when the first heat exchange component is arranged between the exhaust port of the compressor and the inlet of the first heat exchanger, the refrigerant in the first heat exchange component has a higher temperature, so that the refrigerant in the second heat exchange component can be better heated, and the oil mixed in the refrigerant can also be better heated, so as to ensure that the oil can flow back to the compressor, and ensure that the refrigeration system can still operate normally without the oil separator.

[0258] Optionally, as shown in Figure 17As shown, the compressor comprises a first-stage compressor 101 and a second-stage compressor 201, the first heat exchanger comprises a first-stage condenser 105 and a second heat exchange unit 204, the second heat exchanger comprises a first heat exchange unit 108 and a second-stage evaporator 207, and the first heat exchange unit 108 and the second heat exchange unit 204 are capable of heat exchange; the first-stage refrigeration system 10 comprises the first-stage compressor 101, the first-stage condenser 105, and the first heat exchange unit 108 connected in sequence; and the second-stage refrigeration system 20 comprises the second-stage compressor 201, the second heat exchange unit 204, and the second-stage evaporator 207 connected in sequence.

[0259] The first-stage compressor 101 is also the high-temperature stage compressor in the method for controlling a refrigeration system described above. The first-stage refrigeration system 10 is also the high-temperature stage refrigeration system in the method for controlling a refrigeration system described above. The second-stage compressor 201 is also the low-temperature stage compressor in the method for controlling a refrigeration system described above. The second-stage refrigeration system 20 is also the low-temperature stage refrigeration system in the method for controlling a refrigeration system described above.

[0260] The refrigeration system is divided into a first-stage refrigeration system 10 and a second-stage refrigeration system. The first heat exchange unit 108 and the second heat exchange unit 204 are capable of heat exchange, so that the refrigerant in the first heat exchange unit 108 can cool the refrigerant in the second heat exchange unit 204, thereby reducing the temperature of the refrigerant in the second heat exchange unit 204, so that the second-stage refrigeration system 20 can achieve a lower refrigeration temperature. In other words, in the case where the second-stage refrigeration system 20 can achieve the same refrigeration temperature, the refrigeration system of the present application can reduce energy consumption.

[0261] Optionally, the heat exchange structure comprises a second-stage heat exchange structure 203, the second-stage heat exchange structure 203 comprises a third heat exchange unit 2031 and a fourth heat exchange unit 2032 capable of heat exchange, the third heat exchange unit 2031 is connected between the exhaust port of the second-stage compressor 201 and the inlet of the second heat exchange unit 204, and the fourth heat exchange unit 2032 is connected between the outlet of the second-stage evaporator 207 and the return port of the second-stage compressor 201, wherein the first heat exchange member comprises the third heat exchange unit 2031, and the second heat exchange member comprises the fourth heat exchange unit 2032.

[0262] The third heat exchange unit 2031 and the fourth heat exchange unit 2032 are capable of heat exchange, so that the refrigerant flowing out of the outlet of the second-stage evaporator 207 can exchange heat with the refrigerant flowing out of the exhaust port of the second-stage compressor 201. In this way, the lubricating oil mixed in the refrigerant flowing out of the second-stage evaporator 207 can be heated by the refrigerant flowing out of the exhaust port of the second-stage compressor 201, and the oil has enhanced fluidity after being heated, and the oil flows back to the second-stage compressor 201, so that the oil separator can be cancelled.

[0263] Optionally, the third heat exchange section 2031 includes a third heat exchange tube, the two ends of which are respectively connected to the exhaust port of the second-stage compressor 201 and the inlet of the second heat exchange section 204.

[0264] The fourth heat exchange section 2032 includes a fourth heat exchange tube, the two ends of which are connected to the outlet of the second-stage evaporator 207 and the return port of the second-stage compressor 201, respectively.

[0265] Heat exchange between the third and fourth heat exchange tubes is achieved by either placing the third heat exchange tube outside the fourth heat exchange tube or placing the fourth heat exchange tube outside the third heat exchange tube.

[0266] The third heat exchange tube is sleeved on the outside of the fourth heat exchange tube. For example, the third heat exchange tube is a copper tube with an inner diameter of 12mm and the fourth heat exchange tube is a copper tube with an inner diameter of 4mm. The refrigerant flowing out of the second-stage compressor 201 passes through the third heat exchange tube (the gap between the outer wall of the third heat exchange tube and the inner wall of the fourth heat exchange tube), the second heat exchange section 204 and the second-stage evaporator 207, and then flows back to the second-stage compressor 201 through the fourth heat exchange tube.

[0267] Alternatively, the fourth heat exchange tube may be sleeved on the outside of the third heat exchange tube. For example, the third heat exchange tube may be a copper tube with an inner diameter of 4 mm and the fourth heat exchange tube may be a copper tube with an inner diameter of 12 mm. The refrigerant flowing out of the second-stage compressor 201 passes through the third heat exchange tube, the second heat exchange section 204 and the second-stage evaporator 207, and then flows back to the second-stage compressor 201 through the fourth heat exchange tube (the gap between the outer wall of the third heat exchange tube and the inner wall of the fourth heat exchange tube).

[0268] The third and / or fourth heat exchange tubes are corrugated tubes. The corrugation of the tubes enhances the turbulence of the refrigerant, effectively reduces the boundary layer thickness during refrigerant flow, and enhances the heat exchange effect between the third and fourth heat exchange tubes.

[0269] Optionally, such as Figure 17 As shown, the heat exchange structure includes a first-stage heat exchange structure 104, which includes a fifth heat exchange section 1041 and a sixth heat exchange section 1042 capable of heat exchange. The fifth heat exchange section 1041 is connected between the exhaust port of the first-stage compressor 101 and the inlet of the first-stage condenser 105, and the sixth heat exchange section 1042 is connected between the outlet of the first heat exchange section 108 and the return port of the first-stage compressor 101. The first heat exchange component includes the fifth heat exchange section 1041, and the second heat exchange component includes the sixth heat exchange section 1042.

[0270] The fifth heat exchange part 1041 and the sixth heat exchange part 1042 can exchange heat, so that the refrigerant flowing out of the first heat exchange part 108 can exchange heat with the refrigerant flowing out of the exhaust port of the first stage compressor 101. In this way, the lubricating oil mixed in the refrigerant flowing out of the first heat exchange part 108 can be heated by the refrigerant flowing out of the exhaust port of the first stage compressor 101, and the oil is heated to enhance the flowability, and the oil is returned to the first stage compressor 101, so that the oil separator can be cancelled.

[0271] Optionally, the fifth heat exchange part 1041 comprises a fifth heat exchange pipe, and the two ends of the fifth heat exchange pipe are respectively connected with the exhaust port of the first stage compressor 101 and the inlet of the first stage condenser 105.

[0272] The sixth heat exchange part 1042 comprises a sixth heat exchange pipe, and the two ends of the sixth heat exchange pipe are respectively connected with the outlet of the first heat exchange part 108 and the gas return port of the first stage compressor 101.

[0273] The fifth heat exchange pipe is sleeved outside the sixth heat exchange pipe, or the sixth heat exchange pipe is sleeved outside the fifth heat exchange pipe, so as to realize the heat exchange between the fifth heat exchange pipe and the sixth heat exchange pipe.

[0274] The fifth heat exchange pipe is sleeved outside the sixth heat exchange pipe, for example, the fifth heat exchange pipe is a copper pipe with an inner diameter of 12 mm, and the sixth heat exchange pipe is a copper pipe with an inner diameter of 4 mm. The refrigerant flowing out of the first stage compressor 101 passes through the fifth heat exchange pipe (the gap between the outer wall surface of the fifth heat exchange pipe and the inner wall surface of the sixth heat exchange pipe), the first stage condenser 105, the first heat exchange part 108, and then flows back to the first stage compressor 101 through the sixth heat exchange pipe.

[0275] Or the sixth heat exchange pipe is sleeved outside the fifth heat exchange pipe, for example, the fifth heat exchange pipe is a copper pipe with an inner diameter of 4 mm, and the sixth heat exchange pipe is a copper pipe with an inner diameter of 12 mm. The refrigerant flowing out of the first stage compressor 101 passes through the fifth heat exchange pipe, the first stage condenser 105, the first heat exchange part 108, and then flows back to the first stage compressor 101 through the sixth heat exchange pipe (the gap between the outer wall surface of the fifth heat exchange pipe and the inner wall surface of the sixth heat exchange pipe).

[0276] The fifth heat exchange pipe and / or the sixth heat exchange pipe are corrugated pipes. The corrugations of the corrugated pipes are arranged to enhance the turbulence of the refrigerant, effectively reduce the boundary layer thickness during the flow of the refrigerant, and enhance the heat exchange effect between the fifth heat exchange pipe and the sixth heat exchange pipe.

[0277] The third heat exchange pipe, the fourth heat exchange pipe, the fifth heat exchange pipe and the sixth heat exchange pipe are all in spiral shape.

[0278] Optionally, the refrigerant used by the second stage refrigeration system 20 is miscible with the lubricating oil used by the second stage compressor 201.

[0279] The lubricating oil can be well dissolved in the refrigerant, so that the refrigerant can drive the lubricating oil to flow in the second refrigeration system 20, and due to the presence of the second heat exchange structure 203, the lubricating oil flowing out of the second evaporator 207 can be heated again by the third heat exchange part 2031, improving the flowability of the lubricating oil and ensuring that the lubricating oil flows back to the second compressor 201.

[0280] The refrigerant used in the second refrigeration system 20 is R170, and does not include an oil return agent.

[0281] The refrigerant used in the first refrigeration system 10 is miscible with the lubricating oil used in the first compressor 101.

[0282] The lubricating oil can be well dissolved in the refrigerant, so that the refrigerant can drive the lubricating oil to flow in the first refrigeration system 10, and due to the presence of the first heat exchange structure 104, the lubricating oil flowing out of the first heat exchange part 108 can be heated again by the fifth heat exchange part 1041, improving the flowability of the lubricating oil and ensuring that the lubricating oil flows back to the first compressor 101.

[0283] The refrigerant used in the first refrigeration system 10 is R290, and does not include an oil return agent.

[0284] Optionally, the refrigeration system further comprises a heat exchanger, the heat exchanger comprising a throttling component and a heat exchange pipeline, the throttling component being connected between the outlet of the first heat exchanger and the inlet of the second heat exchanger, and the heat exchange pipeline being connected between the outlet of the second heat exchanger and the return gas port of the compressor, the throttling component and the heat exchange pipeline being capable of heat exchange.

[0285] On the one hand, the refrigerant flowing out of the outlet of the second heat exchanger exchanges heat with the throttling component when flowing through the heat exchange pipeline, absorbs the temperature of the throttling component, increases the temperature of the refrigerant flowing out of the outlet of the second heat exchanger, and further enhances the flowability of the lubricating oil in the refrigerant. On the other hand, the refrigerant in the heat exchange pipeline can cool the refrigerant in the throttling component, thereby reducing the temperature of the refrigerant in the throttling component and reducing the energy consumption of the refrigeration system.

[0286] The heat exchange pipeline is located upstream of the heat exchange structure, that is, the refrigerant flowing out of the heat exchange pipeline first flows through the second heat exchange member and then flows back to the return gas port of the compressor.

[0287] The temperature of the refrigerant in the first heat exchange member is higher than the temperature of the refrigerant in the throttling component, so if the heat exchange pipeline is located downstream of the heat exchange structure, the temperature of the refrigerant after heat exchange with the first heat exchange member in the second heat exchange member will be relatively high, and when the refrigerant flows through the heat exchange pipeline and exchanges heat with the throttling component, the heat exchange amount will be reduced or heat exchange cannot be performed.

[0288] As shown in FIG. 1, the refrigeration system comprises a first refrigeration system 10 and a second refrigeration system 20. Figure 17As shown, the regenerator includes a first-stage regenerator 107 and a second-stage regenerator 206. The first-stage regenerator 107 includes a first-stage throttling component 1071 and a first-stage heat exchange pipe 1072, and the second-stage regenerator 206 includes a second-stage throttling component 2061 and a second-stage heat exchange pipe 2062. The throttling component includes the first-stage throttling component 1071 and the second-stage throttling component 2061, and the heat exchange pipe includes the first-stage heat exchange pipe 1072 and the second-stage heat exchange pipe 2062.

[0289] The first-stage regenerator 107 is installed in the first-stage refrigeration system 10, and the second-stage regenerator 206 is installed in the second-stage refrigeration system 20.

[0290] The two ends of the first-stage throttling component 1071 are respectively connected to the outlet of the first-stage condenser 105 and the inlet of the first heat exchange section 108, such as... Figure 17 In this configuration, the two ends of the first-stage heat exchange pipeline 1072 are connected to the outlet of the first heat exchange section 108 and the return port of the first-stage compressor 101, respectively. For example... Figure 18 In the process, the two ends of the first-stage heat exchange pipeline 1072 are connected to the outlet of the first heat exchange section 108 and the inlet of the sixth heat exchange section 1042, respectively.

[0291] The two ends of the second-stage throttling component 2061 are respectively connected to the outlet of the second heat exchange section 204 and the inlet of the second-stage evaporator 207, such as... Figure 17 and Figure 18 In the middle, the two ends of the second-stage heat exchange pipeline 2062 are connected to the outlet of the second-stage evaporator 207 and the inlet of the fourth heat exchange section 2032, respectively.

[0292] Optionally, the second heat exchanger includes an evaporation pipe for supplying refrigerant flow and fins disposed on the evaporation pipe.

[0293] There are multiple evaporation pipes, each extending horizontally. These multiple evaporation pipes are arranged sequentially from top to bottom, and adjacent evaporation pipes are connected. Furthermore, the distance between adjacent evaporation pipes increases from top to bottom.

[0294] Higher-temperature air has a lower density, so it sits above lower-temperature air. Therefore, the heat exchange between the upper air and the evaporator pipes is stronger, while the heat exchange between the lower air and the evaporator pipes is relatively weaker. To address this, the distance between adjacent evaporator pipes at the top is small, while the distance between adjacent evaporator pipes at the bottom is large—that is, the evaporator pipes are denser at the top and sparser at the bottom. This arrangement fully utilizes the heat from the upper air, ensuring sufficient heat exchange between the upper evaporator pipes and the air, thus improving the heat exchange efficiency of the evaporator.

[0295] It is understandable that multiple evaporation pipes can also be evenly arranged, that is, the distance between two adjacent evaporation pipes is equal along the top-to-bottom direction.

[0296] Refrigeration equipment can be refrigerators, freezers, etc. Refrigeration equipment includes an inner liner, which defines a refrigerated space for holding the items being refrigerated.

[0297] The outer wall surface of the evaporator pipe cross-section includes a contact surface. The refrigeration equipment also includes an inner liner. The contact surface is located on the outer wall surface of the inner liner and is in contact with it, thereby achieving heat exchange between the evaporator pipe and the inner liner. The shape of the part of the inner liner that contacts the contact surface is adapted to the contact surface to increase the contact area between the evaporator pipe and the inner liner and improve the heat exchange effect between them.

[0298] For example, the contact surface is flat, and the area on the inner liner that contacts the contact surface is also flat. The contact of these two flat surfaces increases the contact area between the evaporator pipe and the inner liner. Furthermore, the flat contact surface reduces the flow area and internal volume of the evaporator pipe, further enhancing heat exchange between the refrigerant and the inner liner. The outer wall of the evaporator pipe's cross-section also includes an arc-shaped surface, with both ends connected to the ends of the contact surface. In this case, the cross-section of the evaporator pipe can be D-shaped.

[0299] For example, the bonding surface is an arc surface, and the part of the inner liner that is used to bond with the bonding surface is also an arc surface that bends in the same direction as the bonding surface. The two arc surfaces are bonded together, increasing the contact area between the evaporator pipe and the inner liner.

[0300] like Figure 17 As shown, the first-stage refrigeration system 10 includes a first-stage compressor 101, a first-stage precooler 102, a first-stage anti-condensation pipe 103, a first-stage condenser 105, a first-stage dryer filter 106, a first-stage throttling component 1071, a first-stage heat exchange section 108, a first-stage heat exchange pipeline 1072, and a first-stage gas-liquid separator 109, arranged sequentially along the flow direction of the refrigerant.

[0301] like Figure 18 As shown, the first-stage refrigeration system 10 includes a first-stage compressor 101, a first-stage precooler 102, a first-stage anti-condensation pipe 103, a fifth heat exchange section 1041, a first-stage condenser 105, a first-stage dryer filter 106, a first-stage throttling component 1071, a first heat exchange section 108, a first-stage heat exchange pipeline 1072, a first-stage gas-liquid separator 109, and a sixth heat exchange section 1042, arranged sequentially along the refrigerant flow direction.

[0302] like Figure 17 and Figure 18As shown, the second stage refrigeration system 20 includes, in sequence along the flow direction of the refrigerant, a second stage compressor 201, a second stage pre-cooler 202, a third heat exchange section 2031, a second heat exchange section 204, a second stage dry filter 205, a second stage throttling component 2061, a second stage evaporator 207, a second stage heat exchange pipe 2062, and a fourth heat exchange section 2032.

[0303] For the first stage condenser 105, the first stage condenser 105 is connected with a first heat exchange section 108 through a first stage throttling component 1071. The refrigerant flowing out of the first stage condenser 105 flows through the first heat exchange section 108, and the first heat exchange section 108 cools the refrigerant of the second stage refrigeration system 20.

[0304] The first heat exchange section 108 and the second heat exchange section 204 together form an inter-stage heat exchanger 30, which can be an intermediate plate heat exchanger. The inter-stage heat exchanger 30 is also the intermediate heat exchanger in the method for controlling the refrigeration system described above. The inter-stage heat exchanger 30 is a counter-flow heat exchanger, and the flow directions of the refrigerants in the first heat exchange section 108 and the second heat exchange section 204 are opposite. The refrigerant in the first stage refrigeration system 10 after being throttled by the first stage throttling component 1071 cools the refrigerant in the second stage refrigeration system 20 through counter-flow heat exchange (the first heat exchange section 108), and the cooled refrigerant in the second stage refrigeration system 20 is connected to the second stage evaporator 207 through the second stage throttling component 2061.

[0305] The second stage evaporator 207 is a heat exchanger arranged from top to bottom with the top being dense and the bottom being sparse. The second stage evaporator 207 absorbs heat in the refrigeration space, and the refrigerant enters the second stage evaporator 207 from the evaporation pipe at the top and flows out of the second stage evaporator 207 from the evaporation pipe at the bottom.

[0306] The first stage compressor 101 is used to provide driving force for high-temperature stage refrigerant.

[0307] The first stage pre-cooler 102 uses air to preliminarily cool the refrigerant in the first stage refrigeration system 10.

[0308] The first stage anti-dew pipe 103 is used to cool the refrigerant in the first stage refrigeration system 10 and prevent condensation of the cabinet door of the refrigerator or freezer.

[0309] The first stage dry filter 106 is used to dry the refrigerant in the first stage refrigeration system 10 and filter the refrigerant before entering the first stage throttling component 1071.

[0310] The first-stage regenerator 107 is a structure in which the first-stage throttling component 1071 is nested in the first-stage heat exchange pipeline 1072, and is used to cool the first-stage throttling component 1071 and increase the temperature of the refrigerant returned to the first-stage compressor 101. For example, the first-stage heat exchange pipeline 1072 is a copper pipe with an inner diameter of 6 mm, and the first-stage throttling component 1071 is a capillary tube with a diameter of 1 mm.

[0311] The first-stage gas-liquid separator 109 is used to separate the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant and ensure that the refrigerant returned to the first-stage compressor 101 is in a gas phase.

[0312] The second-stage compressor 201 is used to provide a driving force for the flow of the refrigerant in the second-stage refrigeration system 20.

[0313] The second-stage pre-cooler 202 is used to preliminarily cool the refrigerant in the second-stage refrigeration system 20 by using air.

[0314] The second-stage heat exchange structure 203 is used to further cool the refrigerant in the second-stage refrigeration system 20 before entering the second heat exchange part 204, and to increase the temperature of the refrigerant of the second-stage compressor 201.

[0315] The second-stage regenerator 206 is a structure in which the second-stage throttling component 2061 is nested in the second-stage heat exchange pipeline 2062, and is used to cool the second-stage throttling component 2061 and increase the temperature of the refrigerant returned to the second-stage compressor 201; for example, the second-stage heat exchange pipeline 2062 is a copper pipe with an inner diameter of 6 mm, and the second-stage throttling component 2061 is a capillary tube with a diameter of 1 mm.

[0316] The second-stage drying filter 205 is used to dry the refrigerant in the second-stage refrigeration system 20 and filter the refrigerant before entering the second-stage throttling component 2061.

[0317] The second-stage compressor 201 is provided with a fan 208, which is used to reduce the temperature of the surface of the second-stage compressor 201.

[0318] The present application improves the refrigeration capacity of the second-stage refrigeration system 20 by arranging the first-stage refrigeration system 10, the second-stage refrigeration system 20, the first heat exchange part 108, the second heat exchange part 204, the regenerator and the heat exchange structure, so that the second-stage refrigeration system 20 can realize ultra-low temperature refrigeration, and the cold capacity of the first-stage refrigeration system 10, the cold capacity of the first throttling component and the cold capacity of the third heat exchange part 2031 are fully utilized, thereby reducing the start-stop times of the first-stage compressor 101 and the second-stage compressor 201, reducing the power of the first-stage compressor 101 and the second-stage compressor 201, reducing the start-up time of the first-stage compressor 101 and the second-stage compressor 201, and improving the operating conditions, such as the exhaust temperature and / or pressure and the suction temperature and / or pressure, of the first-stage compressor 101 and the second-stage compressor 201.

[0319] Specifically, (1) the first-stage refrigeration system 10 and the second-stage refrigeration system 20 are respectively provided with the first-stage regenerator 107 and the second-stage regenerator 206. The second-stage regenerator 206 utilizes the cold energy at the outlet of the second-stage evaporator 207, so that the amount of low-temperature liquid after throttling by the second-stage throttling component 2061 is increased, the refrigerating capacity of the second-stage refrigeration system 20 is increased, and the COP of the system is improved.

[0320] (2) By increasing the first-stage regenerator 107, the second-stage regenerator 206, the first-stage heat exchange structure 104, and the second-stage heat exchange structure 203, the excess cold energy is effectively utilized, and the risk of liquid carry-over of the return gas of the first-stage compressor 101 and the second-stage compressor 201 is reduced.

[0321] (3) The oil separator is removed from the second-stage refrigeration system 20, and the second-stage refrigeration system 20 only utilizes R170 refrigerant and does not include oil return agent. The cross section of the evaporation pipeline of the second-stage evaporator 207 adopts a D shape to reduce the internal volume of the evaporation pipeline. In the case that the amount of refrigerant injected into the second-stage refrigeration system 20 is constant, the second-stage evaporator 207 can be filled with liquid refrigerant to achieve a full-liquid state, and the excess liquid in the second-stage evaporator 207 can be evaporated in the second-stage heat exchange pipeline 2062 by the second-stage throttling component 2061. Thus, the refrigerant in the second-stage evaporator 207 can more easily drive the lubricating oil back to the second-stage compressor 201 from the second-stage evaporator 207. The lubricating oil can be POE (ester oil), and the second-stage refrigeration system 20 can be selected to use a refrigerant that is miscible with the lubricating oil. Finally, under the condition that the second-stage refrigeration system 20 only uses refrigerant and does not use oil return agent, the problem of "oil return" of the second-stage compressor 201 is also solved.

[0322] Optionally, as shown in Figure 17 and Figure 18 , the refrigeration system further comprises a branch pipeline and an expansion device.

[0323] The branch pipeline is connected in parallel with the throttling component and can be controlled to be opened or closed; and the expansion device is arranged in the branch pipeline.

[0324] The arrangement of the expansion device enables the first heat exchanger to perform the function of a condenser and the second heat exchanger to perform the function of an evaporator when the branch pipeline is conducted, i.e., the refrigeration function of the refrigeration system can be realized.

[0325] When the temperature of the refrigerant in the heat exchange pipeline is relatively high, the branch pipeline can be opened, and the refrigerant in the branch pipeline is not heat-exchanged with the heat exchange pipeline, so that the heat exchange pipeline cannot heat the refrigerant in the branch pipeline, and the temperature of the refrigerant in the branch pipeline will not be increased. Therefore, the rapid refrigeration of the refrigeration system can be realized, and the refrigeration speed at the start of the refrigeration system is not affected by the arrangement of the regenerator.

[0326] The refrigeration system further comprises a switch and a processor.

[0327] The switch is arranged in the branch pipeline and is used for controlling opening and closing of the branch pipeline; the processor is connected with the switch and is configured to control the switch to be opened in a case that the outlet temperature of the second heat exchanger is higher than a preset temperature.

[0328] In a case that the outlet temperature of the second heat exchanger is higher than the preset temperature, the temperature of the refrigerant in the heat exchange pipeline is also higher, for example, the temperature of the refrigerant in the heat exchange pipeline exceeds the temperature of the refrigerant at the throttling component, at this time, heat exchange between the heat exchange pipeline and the throttling component causes the temperature of the refrigerant in the throttling component to rise, thereby slowing down the refrigeration speed. At this time, the processor controls the switch to be opened, and the branch pipeline is turned on, at this time, the refrigerant flowing out of the outlet of the first heat exchanger does not pass through the throttling component, but passes through the branch pipeline and flows into the second heat exchanger through the expansion device, thereby realizing rapid refrigeration.

[0329] In a case that the temperature of the refrigerant in the heat exchange pipeline is reduced to a temperature at which heat exchange between the heat exchange pipeline and the throttling component does not cause the temperature of the refrigerant in the throttling component to rise, the branch pipeline is controlled to be closed, and the refrigerant at the outlet of the first heat exchanger flows into the second heat exchanger through the throttling component.

[0330] The processor can control opening and closing of the switch according to the outlet temperature of the second heat exchanger, or can control opening and closing of the switch according to the length of time of starting, for example, the switch is controlled to be opened within a preset starting time; when the starting exceeds the preset time, the switch is controlled to be closed.

[0331] The switch can be an electromagnetic valve. The expansion device can be an electronic expansion valve, a capillary tube, etc.

[0332] The branch pipeline comprises a first-stage branch pipeline 110, the first-stage branch pipeline 110 is connected with a first-stage throttling component 1071 in parallel and can be controlled to be opened and closed. The expansion device comprises a first-stage expansion device 111, the first-stage expansion device 111 is arranged in the first-stage branch pipeline 110. The switch comprises a first-stage switch 112, the first-stage switch 112 is arranged in the first-stage branch pipeline 110 and is used for controlling opening and closing of the first-stage branch pipeline 110.

[0333] The first-stage refrigeration system 10 is provided with a first-stage branch pipeline 110 and a first-stage expansion device 111. When the temperature of the refrigerant in the first-stage heat exchange pipeline 1072 is relatively high, the first-stage switch 112 is controlled to be opened, so that the first-stage branch pipeline 110 is conducted, and the refrigerant flowing out of the outlet of the first-stage condenser 105 flows into the first heat exchange part 108 through the first-stage branch pipeline 110 instead of the first-stage throttling part 1071, thereby realizing rapid refrigeration. With the operation of the refrigeration system, the temperature of the refrigerant in the first-stage heat exchange pipeline 1072 decreases, and when the temperature decreases to a certain extent (for example, lower than the temperature of the refrigerant in the first-stage throttling part 1071), the first-stage switch 112 is controlled to be closed, so that the first-stage branch pipeline 110 is disconnected, and the refrigerant flowing out of the outlet of the first-stage condenser 105 flows into the first heat exchange part 108 through the first-stage throttling part 1071.

[0334] The branch pipeline includes a second-stage branch pipeline 209, which is connected in parallel with the second-stage throttling part 2061 and can be controlled to be opened and closed. The expansion device includes a second-stage expansion device 210, which is arranged in the second-stage branch pipeline 209.

[0335] The second-stage refrigeration system 20 is provided with the second-stage branch pipeline 209 and the second-stage expansion device 210. When the temperature of the refrigerant in the second-stage heat exchange pipeline 2062 is relatively high, the second-stage switch 211 is controlled to be opened, so that the second-stage branch pipeline 209 is conducted, and the refrigerant flowing out of the outlet of the second heat exchange part 204 flows into the second-stage evaporator 207 through the second-stage branch pipeline 209 instead of the second-stage throttling part 2061, thereby realizing rapid refrigeration. With the operation of the refrigeration system, the temperature of the refrigerant in the second-stage heat exchange pipeline 2062 decreases, and when the temperature decreases to a certain extent (for example, lower than the temperature of the refrigerant in the second-stage throttling part 2061), the second-stage switch 211 is controlled to be closed, so that the second-stage branch pipeline 209 is disconnected, and the refrigerant flowing out of the outlet of the second heat exchange part 204 flows into the second-stage evaporator 207 through the second-stage throttling part 2061.
