Figure 1 As shown, the heat source tower heat pump concentration control system includes a liquid inlet pipe 1, a filter device 2, a liquid outlet pipe 3, a liquid discharge pipe 4, a first liquid delivery pipe 5, a second liquid delivery pipe 6, a water delivery pipe 7, a sewage discharge pipe 8, an air delivery pipe 9 and a controller.
[0046] A first end of the liquid inlet pipe 1 is used to communicate with the liquid outlet of the heat source tower 27, and a first valve 10 is installed on the liquid inlet pipe 1; the liquid inlet of the filtering device 2 is communicated with the second end of the liquid inlet pipe 1, and a solution pump 11 is installed on the liquid inlet pipe 1 between the first valve 10 and the filtering device 2; a first end of the liquid outlet pipe 3 is used to communicate with the liquid inlet of the heat source tower 27, a densitometer 12 is installed in parallel on the liquid outlet pipe 3, manual valves 13 are installed at both ends of the densitometer 12, and a second valve 14 is installed on the liquid outlet pipe 3; a first end of the liquid discharge pipe 4 is communicated with the liquid outlet of the filtering device 2, a second end of the liquid discharge pipe 4 is used to communicate with the dilute solution tank 28, a third valve 15 is installed on the liquid discharge pipe 4, and a second end of the liquid discharge pipe 3 is communicated with the liquid discharge pipe 4 between the filtering device 2 and the third valve 15; a first end of the first liquid feeding pipe 5 is communicated with the liquid discharge pipe 4 between the third valve 15 and the dilute solution tank 28, and a second end of the first liquid feeding pipe 5 is connected to the liquid inlet pipe 1 between the first valve 10 and the solution pump 11 The first liquid delivery pipe 5 is connected, and a fourth valve 16 is installed on the first liquid delivery pipe 5; the first end of the second liquid delivery pipe 6 is used to be connected with the concentrated solution tank 29, the second end of the second liquid delivery pipe 6 is connected with the liquid inlet pipe 1 between the first valve 10 and the solution pump 11, and the second liquid delivery pipe 6 is installed with a fifth valve 17; the first end of the water delivery pipe 7 is used to connect with the water source, the second end of the water delivery pipe 7 is connected with the liquid inlet pipe 1 between the first valve 10 and the solution pump 11, and the water delivery pipe 7 is installed with a sixth valve 18; the sewage pipe 8 is connected with the sewage outlet of the filtering device 2, and a seventh valve 19 is installed on the sewage pipe 8; the air delivery pipe 9 is connected with the filtering device 2, and an eighth valve 20 is installed on the air delivery pipe 9; the input end of the controller is communicatively connected with the output end of the density meter 12, and the output end of the controller is communicatively connected with the first valve 10, the second valve 14, the third valve 15, the fourth valve 16, the fifth valve 17, the sixth valve 18, the seventh valve 19, the eighth valve 20 and the control end of the solution pump 11.
[0047] During use, the inlet pipe 1 is connected to the outlet of the heat source tower 27 via a main pipe, the outlet pipe 3 is connected to the inlet of the heat source tower 27 via a main pipe, and the drain pipe 4 is connected to the dilute solution tank 28, which stores antifreeze of the appropriate concentration required for the normal operation of the heat source tower heat pump. The first liquid supply pipe 5 is connected to the dilute solution tank 28, and the second liquid supply pipe 6 is connected to the concentrated solution tank 29, which stores antifreeze with a relatively high concentration. The water supply pipe 7 is connected to a pressurized water source, such as municipal tap water. The density meter 12 monitors the concentration of the solution flowing through it in real time and transmits the concentration data to the controller. The controller has pre-stored high and low concentration thresholds and compares the received concentration data with the high and low concentration thresholds.
[0048] When the system needs to be shut down, the controller controls the system to be in a shutdown mode. Specifically, the controller controls the first valve 10 to the eighth valve 20 to be in a closed state, and controls the solution pump 11 to be in a shut-down state.
[0049] When the heat source tower heat pump is in normal working state, and the concentration data of the antifreeze solution flowing through monitored by the density meter 12 is between the high concentration threshold and the low concentration threshold, that is, the normal working requirements of the heat source tower heat pump are met, and at the same time, the liquid level height in the heat source tower 27 also meets the normal operating requirements, the controller controls the system in the solution purification mode. Specifically, the controller controls the first valve 10 and the second valve 14 to open, and controls the third valve 15 to the eighth valve 20 to close, and then controls the solution pump 11 to start. Figure 1 As shown, driven by solution pump 11, the solution in heat source tower 27 enters filter device 2 through liquid inlet pipe 1. After impurities are filtered out, the solution is discharged from filter device 2 to drain pipe 4, further flows into liquid inlet pipe 1, and finally flows back into heat source tower 27, forming a closed loop. During this process, the solution in the loop is filtered and purified only when it flows through filter device 2, and the concentration and total flow rate of the antifreeze solution are not adjusted.
[0050] When the liquid level in the heat source tower 27 is too high, part of the solution needs to be discharged. At this time, the controller controls the system in the dilute solution recovery mode. Specifically, the controller controls the first valve 10 and the third valve 15 to be in the open state, and controls the second valve 14 and the fourth valve 16 to the eighth valve 20 to be in the closed state. After starting the solution pump 11, the solution in the heat source tower 27 flows into the liquid inlet pipe 1, flows into the drain pipe 4 after passing through the filtering device 2, and finally flows into the dilute solution tank 28 connected to the drain pipe 4 for recovery and storage.
[0051] When the antifreeze concentration monitored by the densitometer 12 is lower than the low concentration threshold, first, it is necessary to discharge a portion of the dilute solution with too low concentration in the heat source tower 27 and the system pipeline to provide space for the subsequent filling of concentrated solution. That is, the controller first controls the system to be in the dilute solution recovery mode, controls the first valve 10 and the third valve 15 to be open, and controls the second valve 14 and the fourth valve 16 to the eighth valve 20 to be in the closed state. The solution in the heat source tower 27 flows through the liquid inlet pipe 1, the filter device 2 and the drain pipe 4, and is finally discharged to the dilute solution tank 28. When the liquid level in the heat source tower 27 reaches a certain low value, the controller controls the system to be in concentrated solution filling mode, injects high-concentration solution into the system pipeline to mix with the low-concentration solution in the pipeline and in the heat source tower 27, and obtains a dilute solution of appropriate concentration required for the normal operation of the heat source tower 27. Specifically, the controller controls the second valve 14 and the fifth valve 17 to open, controls the first valve 10, the third valve 15, the fourth valve 16 and the sixth valve 18 to the eighth valve 20 to close, and starts the solution pump 11. Then, under the driving action of the solution pump 11, the high-concentration solution in the concentrated solution tank 29 enters the liquid inlet pipe 1 through the second liquid delivery pipe 6, and enters the liquid discharge pipe 4 after being filtered by the filter device 2, and finally flows into the heat source tower 27 connected thereto through the liquid outlet pipe 3.
[0052] When the antifreeze concentration in the system pipeline meets the normal working requirements, but the liquid level in the heat source tower 27 is too low, the controller controls the system to be in the dilute solution filling mode. Specifically, the controller controls the second valve 14 and the fourth valve 16 to open, controls the first valve 10, the third valve 15 and the fifth valve 17 to the eighth valve 20 to close, and starts the solution pump 11. The dilute solution of appropriate concentration in the dilute solution tank 28 is output to the liquid inlet pipe 1 through the first liquid delivery pipe 5, enters the liquid discharge pipe 4 after being filtered by the filter device 2, and finally flows into the heat source tower 27 connected thereto through the liquid outlet pipe 3. This mode continues until the liquid level in the heat source tower 27 returns to the liquid level range required for the normal operation of the heat source tower 27.
[0053] When the concentration of antifreeze in the system pipeline meets the normal working requirements, but the liquid level in the heat source tower 27 is too low, and the liquid level in the dilute solution tank 28 is also too low, and cannot meet the requirements of filling enough dilute solution into the system pipeline, the controller controls the system in water filling mode. Specifically, the controller controls the second valve 14 and the sixth valve 18 to open, and at the same time controls the first valve 10, the third valve 15 to the fifth valve 17, the seventh valve 19 and the eighth valve 20 to be closed. Then, the pressurized water source enters the liquid inlet pipe 1 through the water supply pipe 7, flows through the filter device 2 and then enters the drain pipe 4, and finally enters the liquid outlet pipe 3 and flows into the heat source tower 27 connected thereto, thereby replenishing the fluid in the system and keeping the liquid level in the heat source tower 27 within the height range required for normal operation.
[0054] When the filter device 2 has been used for too long and needs to be cleaned, the controller controls the system to be in the cleaning and sewage discharge mode. Specifically, the controller controls the solution pump 11 to stop, controls the second valve 14 and the sixth valve 18 to be opened, and controls the first valve 10, the third valve 15 to the fifth valve 17, the seventh valve 19 and the eighth valve 20 to be closed. Then the pressurized water source enters the liquid inlet pipe 1 through the water supply pipe 7, and pushes the antifreeze in the liquid inlet pipe 1, the filter device 2 and the liquid outlet pipe 3 to flow into the heat source tower 27. After this state is delayed for a first time period, for example 30s, most of the antifreeze in the liquid inlet pipe 1, the filter device 2 and the liquid outlet pipe 3 flows into the heat source tower 27. At this time, the controller controls the second valve 14 to be closed, and controls the seventh valve 19 to be opened. At this time, the main component in the pipeline is water, and the pressurized water source is continuously injected. The water flow with force, then the water flows through the water supply pipe 7, through the liquid inlet pipe 1 and into the filter device 2, flushing the inside of the filter device 2, and the sewage and impurities after flushing enter the connected sewage pipe 8 through the sewage outlet and are discharged through the sewage pipe 8. In order to facilitate the collection of sewage, the sewage tank 30 can be connected to the end of the sewage pipe 8. After this state lasts for a second time period, for example 30s, the filter device 2 is flushed clean. At this time, the controller controls the sixth valve 18 to close, and no water source is introduced. The eighth valve 20 is controlled to open to connect to the atmosphere, so that the water flow in the filter device 2 can smoothly enter the sewage pipe 8 through the sewage outlet and be discharged through the sewage pipe 8. After this state lasts for a third time period, for example 50s, the water flow in the filter device 2 is drained. At this time, the controller controls the seventh valve 19 and the eighth valve 20 to close, and the cleaning and sewage discharge mode ends.
[0055] After the winter heating mode ends, the antifreeze in the system needs to be recovered to the dilute solution tank 28. At this time, the controller control system is in the seasonal recovery mode. Specifically, the controller controls the first valve 10 and the third valve 15 to open, controls the second valve 14, the fourth valve 16 to the eighth valve 20 to close, and controls the solution pump 11 to start. Then, the solution in the heat source tower 27 and the pipeline enters the filter device 2 through the liquid inlet pipe 1, and then enters the dilute solution tank 28 through the liquid discharge pipe 4. When the liquid level in the dilute solution tank 28 stops rising for a certain period of time, for example, within five minutes, it is judged that the solution recovery is completed, the controller controls the solution pump 11 to stop, and controls the first valve 10 and the third valve 15 to close, thereby completing the recovery of the antifreeze.
[0056] Before winter heating begins, antifreeze needs to be filled into the system, and the controller controls the system in seasonal filling mode. Specifically, the controller controls the second valve 14 and the fourth valve 16 to open, controls the first valve 10, the third valve 15, and the fifth valve 17 to the eighth valve 20 to close, and controls the solution pump 11 to start. The antifreeze in the dilute solution tank 28 enters the liquid inlet pipe 1 through the first liquid delivery pipe 5, and then enters the liquid discharge pipe 4 through the filter device 2, and finally enters the heat source tower 27 through the liquid outlet pipe 3. When the solution level in the heat source tower 27 is higher than the minimum liquid level for the normal operation of the system, it is judged that the solution filling is complete. At this time, the controller controls the solution pump 11 to stop, and controls the second valve 14 and the fourth valve 16 to close.
[0057] During system assembly, the densitometer 12 must be installed on a vertical section of the liquid outlet pipe 3, with a length of at least 1.5 meters and a flow rate of less than 1 m / s. If the densitometer 12 malfunctions and requires repair or replacement, the operator can close the manual valves 13 on either side of the densitometer 12 to prevent antifreeze from flowing through it. During this time, the densitometer 12 can be removed for repair or replacement without affecting the normal operation of the system.
[0058] The controller uses a control cabinet. A level gauge is installed inside the heat source tower 27 to monitor the antifreeze level within the tower. A level gauge is also installed inside the dilute solution tank 28 to monitor the level within the dilute solution tank. The control cabinet includes a reserved electrical interface for connecting to the level gauges within the heat source tower 27, the dilute solution tank 28, and the centralized control system. When the system receives a remote run command or presses the start button on the control cabinet, it starts running. When the system receives a remote shutdown command or presses the stop button on the control cabinet, it enters shutdown mode. The system automatically switches operating modes based on the operating conditions of the heat source tower heat pump system, dynamically adjusting the antifreeze concentration to ensure safe and stable operation of the heat source tower heat pump system.
[0059] By adopting the heat source tower heat pump concentration control system of the present invention, all functions such as solution concentration adjustment, solution filtration and purification, solution recovery and filling, and water replenishment can be realized through one system, thereby improving system working efficiency, reducing floor space, and lowering design difficulty.
[0060] The filter device 2 can adopt any structural form, as long as it can filter and purify the solution flowing through it, output the filtered solution to the drain pipe 4, and discharge the filtered impurities to the sewage pipe 8.
[0061] The controller controls the opening and closing of each valve and the start and stop of the solution pump 11 based on the antifreeze concentration data monitored by the density meter 12 and the respective liquid level data monitored by the liquid level gauges in the heat source tower 27 and the dilute solution tank 28. This integrated information can be implemented according to the existing mature algorithm, and its specific working principle will not be repeated here.
[0062] Optionally, a line filter 21 is installed on the liquid inlet pipe 1. This arrangement performs preliminary filtration on the solution flowing through the liquid inlet pipe 1, so that larger impurities in the solution are intercepted, thereby reducing the working pressure of the filter device 2. The two cooperate to perform double filtration to ensure the filtering effect of impurities in the solution.
[0063] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the pipeline filter 21 is installed between the first valve 10 and the solution pump 11 on the liquid inlet pipe 1. According to actual application conditions, the specific installation position of the pipeline filter 21 on the liquid inlet pipe 1 and the specific specifications and models can be adjusted.
[0064] Optionally, the heat source tower heat pump concentration control system also includes a pressure differential switch 22 and an alarm (not shown). The first detection end of the pressure differential switch 22 is connected to the input end of the pipeline filter 21, the second detection end of the pressure differential switch 22 is connected to the output end of the pipeline filter 21, and the output end of the pressure differential switch 22 is communicatively connected to the input end of the controller; the input end of the alarm is communicatively connected to the output end of the controller. With this arrangement, if the pressure differential across the pipeline filter 21 is detected to be excessive, indicating that the pipeline filter 21 is clogged, the alarm will sound an alarm to ensure normal system operation, prompting the operator to inspect or replace it.
[0065] The differential pressure switch 22 monitors the differential pressure across the pipeline filter 21 and transmits this data in real time to the controller. The controller has a pre-set differential pressure stored within it. When the differential pressure received by the controller is greater than or equal to the set differential pressure, it indicates that the pipeline filter 21 is clogged, and the controller controls the alarm to sound an alarm. The alarm can be a text alarm, a voice alarm, or a light alarm, or a combination of these. The pipeline filter 21 can be a commercially available model that matches the inlet pipe 1. The controller controls the alarm's control logic based on the comparison of the received differential pressure data with the set differential pressure, which can be implemented using existing, proven algorithms.
[0066] Optionally, a flow switch 23 is installed on the drain pipe 8, and the output of the flow switch 23 is communicatively connected to the input of the controller. The flow switch 23 monitors the flow rate through the drain pipe 8 in real time. When the seventh valve 19 is closed and the flow rate data shows a certain value, it indicates that the seventh valve 19 is faulty and cannot block the drain pipe 8. At this time, the controller controls the alarm to sound an alarm, prompting the operator to replace the seventh valve 19 in time to prevent antifreeze leakage.
[0067] The flow data monitored by the flow switch 23 is transmitted to the controller in real time. The controller has a set flow pre-stored inside, for example, the set flow is zero. When the seventh valve 19 is in the closed state and the flow data received by the controller is greater than or equal to the set flow, it indicates that the seventh valve 19 is faulty and solution leakage has occurred when the sewage pipe 8 needs to be blocked.
[0068] Optionally, a first one-way valve 24 is installed on the liquid inlet pipe 1. The first one-way valve 24 is provided to prevent the solution flowing through the liquid inlet pipe 1 from flowing back.
[0069] like Figure 1 As shown, the first one-way valve 24 is installed between the solution pump 11 and the filtering device 2 on the liquid inlet pipe 1.
[0070] Optionally, the heat source tower heat pump concentration control system further includes a confluence pipe 25, the first end of which is in communication with the liquid inlet pipe 1 between the first valve 10 and the solution pump 11, and the second end of which is in communication with the second end of the first liquid delivery pipe 5, the second end of the second liquid delivery pipe 6, and the second end of the water delivery pipe 7, respectively. A second one-way valve 26 is installed on the confluence pipe 25. This arrangement, by virtue of the confluence pipe 25, prevents the fluids in the first liquid delivery pipe 5, the second liquid delivery pipe 6, and the water delivery pipe 7 from flowing back into the liquid inlet pipe 1.

[0073] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the purification tank 201 is a hollow cylinder as a whole, and a converging arc is provided at the bottom. The first mounting plate 202 and the second mounting plate 203 are both arranged in a circular shape, and are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the purification tank 201 in the circumferential direction.

Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the filter device 2 optionally further includes a cleaning assembly 205, which includes a drive member 2051, a transmission shaft 2052, and a cleaning brush 2053. The transmission shaft 2052 is drivingly connected to the output shaft of the drive member 2051 and extends into the filter cartridge 204. The cleaning brush 2053 is connected to the transmission shaft 2052 and abuts against the filter cartridge 204. The cleaning assembly 205 is provided to regularly clean the inner wall of the filter cartridge 204 to prevent the filter mesh of the filter cartridge 204 from being clogged by impurities, which could affect the filtration effect and even the normal operation of the system.
[0075] In this embodiment, the driving member 2051 is a motor, fixed to the top exterior of the purification tank 201. Its output shaft passes through the purification tank 201 and is connected to a transmission shaft 2052. The transmission shaft 2052 extends within the filter cartridge 204 to its bottom end and is circumferentially fixedly connected to a cleaning brush 2053. In this embodiment, the cleaning brush 2053 includes a connecting plate directly connected to the transmission shaft 2052 and bristles mounted on the surface of the connecting plate at the end away from the transmission shaft 2052.

During the rotation of the cleaning brush 2053, the bristles clean the inner wall of the filter cartridge 204 that is in contact with it, and the impurities attached to the inner wall of the filter cartridge 204 are cleaned and fall to the bottom of the purification tank 201. After the filter device 2 has been running for a certain period of time, the seventh valve 19 is opened, and the impurities enter the sewage pipe 8 through the sewage outlet and are finally discharged.
[0076] In order to ensure the stable rotation of the transmission shaft 2052, a fixing frame 206 is provided. Figure 3 As shown, the fixing frame 206 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the first mounting plate 202, and the transmission shaft 2052 passes through the center of the fixing frame 206 and extends to the inside of the filter cartridge 204. Under the limiting effect of the fixing frame 206, the transmission shaft 2052 is prevented from shaking in the horizontal direction.
[0077] The present invention also provides a heat source tower heat pump concentration control assembly, including a heat source tower 27, a dilute solution tank 28 and a concentrated solution tank 29, and also includes the heat source tower heat pump concentration control system described in any of the above embodiments.
[0078] By adopting the heat source tower heat pump concentration control assembly of the present invention, all functions such as solution concentration adjustment, solution filtration and purification, solution recovery and filling, and water replenishment can be achieved through a set of systems, thereby improving work efficiency, reducing floor space, and lowering design difficulty.
[0079] Optionally, a liquid level meter is provided in the heat source tower 27 for monitoring the liquid level of the antifreeze liquid in the heat source tower 27 , and the output end of the liquid level meter is communicatively connected to the input end of the controller of the heat source tower heat pump concentration control system.
[0080] The liquid level meter monitors the liquid level of the antifreeze in the heat source tower 27 in real time and transmits the liquid level data to the controller in real time. The controller has pre-stored high and low thresholds. When the liquid level in the heat source tower 27 is between the high and low thresholds, the system can operate normally. When the liquid level in the heat source tower 27 is higher than the high threshold, some antifreeze needs to be discharged. When the liquid level in the heat source tower 27 is lower than the low threshold, antifreeze needs to be replenished.
[0081] A liquid level gauge can also be set in the dilute solution tank 28 to monitor the liquid level height in the dilute solution tank 28 and transmit the liquid level data to the controller. The controller integrates the liquid level data in the dilute solution tank 28, the liquid level data in the heat source tower 27, and the concentration data of the antifreeze in the pipeline to comprehensively determine which working mode the system should be in.
