[0022] A control method for a dual-pump temperature control system with cold storage function for lasers, the specific steps of which are as follows:

[0023] S1, Cold Storage Mode: The internal circulation pump starts circulating, continuously delivering the refrigerant in the cold storage tank to the first evaporator. At the same time, the compressor starts, and the refrigerant, after being compressed by the compressor, becomes a high-temperature, high-pressure gaseous refrigerant. It passes through the four-way valve and enters the condenser to dissipate heat. After dissipation, it passes through the dryer filter and flows to the electronic expansion valve. The throttled refrigerant exchanges heat with the refrigerant in the first evaporator, cooling the refrigerant. After cooling, the refrigerant returns to the cold storage tank through the second evaporator to store cold, while the refrigerant that has absorbed heat returns to the compressor, completing the cold storage cycle.

[0024] S2, Cooling Mode: Based on the target liquid supply flow rate Q set by the parameter input module, the PID controller calculates and outputs the frequency of the external circulation pump to ensure the liquid supply flow rate. Based on the target liquid supply temperature T1 set by the parameter input module and the actual liquid supply temperature T3 collected by the liquid supply temperature sensor, the PID controller calculates and outputs the frequency of the internal circulation pump. At this time, the refrigerant in the cold storage tank is continuously delivered to the first evaporator. Then, the refrigerant enters the second evaporator to exchange with the exchange liquid. After exchanging with the refrigerant, the exchange liquid carries the cooling capacity through the external circulation... The continuous delivery of the circulating pump passes through the flow meter and the liquid supply pipeline to cool the target. Then, it re-enters the second evaporator through the return pipeline to continue heat exchange with the refrigerant. The refrigerant after exchanging with the exchange liquid flows back to the cold storage tank. When the cooling mode ends, the temperature of the cold storage tank rises and it re-enters the cold storage. The initial opening percentage X1 of the internal circulation pump is given by the parameter input module. When the absolute value of the deviation between the actual liquid supply temperature T3 and the target liquid supply temperature T1, i.e., |T3-T1|≤1, the PID controller adjusts autonomously.

[0025] S3, Heating Mode: When heating is required, the internal circulation pump starts, continuously supplying the refrigerant from the cold storage tank to the first evaporator. Simultaneously, the compressor starts, and the four-way valve switches the internal flow direction. The high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant enters the first evaporator through the four-way valve, exchanging heat with the refrigerant and heating the circulating refrigerant. After the refrigerant dissipates heat, it is throttled by the electronic expansion valve. The throttled refrigerant then enters the condenser to absorb heat, and returns to the compressor, completing the heating cycle. Simultaneously, based on the target liquid supply flow rate Q set by the parameter input module, the PID controller calculates and outputs the frequency of the external circulation pump to ensure the liquid supply flow rate. Based on the target supply liquid temperature T1 set by the parameter input module and the return liquid temperature T2 collected by the return liquid temperature sensor, the PID controller calculates and outputs the frequency of the internal circulation pump. At this time, the heat-carrying refrigerant that has exchanged heat with the high-temperature refrigerant in the first evaporator enters the second evaporator to exchange heat with the exchange liquid. After exchanging heat with the refrigerant, the exchange liquid carries heat and is continuously transported by the external circulation pump through the flow meter and the supply liquid pipeline to heat the target. Then, it re-enters the second evaporator through the return liquid pipeline to continue exchanging heat with the refrigerant. The refrigerant that has exchanged heat with the exchange liquid flows back to the cold storage tank.

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0027] 1. By storing cold energy, it is possible to store cold energy even when there is no need for cooling, and then force convection circulation through plate heat exchangers, resulting in higher circulation efficiency.

[0028] 2. By giving an initial internal circulation pump opening, a large amount of low-temperature cold source and hot fluid can be supplied for heat exchange instantly. In a short time, the supply liquid temperature can be stabilized within the target deviation to avoid the loss of cold energy caused by temperature overshoot.

[0029] 3. By adjusting the circulation rate of the cold fluid through PID control, the supply temperature can be kept within the deviation range.

[0030] 4. In cases where heating is required at low temperatures, the heat source can be provided through the refrigerant circulation system by switching the refrigerant circulation system. This method is more efficient than electric heating. Attached Figure Description

[0036] This invention provides a dual-pump temperature control system with cold storage function for lasers and its control method. The stored cold energy can directly remove the instantaneous heat generated when high-power equipment is working in a very short time. It is simple to configure, low in cost, and has high control precision. Example

Specifically, in this embodiment, the cold / heat exchange assembly includes a compressor 230, a four-way valve 240 whose inlet is connected to the outlet end of the compressor 230, a condenser 250 whose first end is connected to the first outlet end of the four-way valve 240, and an electric motor whose other end is connected to the other end of the condenser 250. The system comprises an expansion valve 260, a first evaporator 270, and a second evaporator 280. The first refrigerant connection port 270a of the first evaporator 270 is connected to the outlet of the internal circulation pump 220; the second refrigerant connection port 270b of the first evaporator 270 is connected to the third refrigerant connection port 280a of the second evaporator 280; the first refrigerant connection port 270c of the first evaporator 270 is connected to the second outlet of the four-way valve 240; and the second refrigerant port 270d of the first evaporator 270 is connected to the other end of the electronic expansion valve 260. The fourth refrigerant connection port 280b of the second evaporator 280 is connected to the refrigerant inlet of the cold storage tank 210, and the third outlet of the four-way valve 240 is connected to the inlet of the compressor 230 through a pipe. Preferably, the cold / heat exchange assembly also includes a dryer filter 290 located between the electronic expansion valve 260 and the condenser 250. In actual use, the internal circulation pump 220 starts to circulate, continuously delivering the refrigerant in the cold storage tank 210 to the first evaporator 270. At the same time, the compressor 230 starts, and the refrigerant, after being compressed by the compressor 230, becomes... The high-temperature, high-pressure gaseous refrigerant passes through the four-way valve 240 and enters the condenser 250 for heat dissipation. After heat dissipation, it passes through the dryer filter 290 and is throttled by the electronic expansion valve 260. The throttled refrigerant exchanges heat with the heat transfer fluid in the first evaporator 270, cooling the heat transfer fluid. After cooling, the heat transfer fluid returns to the cold storage tank 210 through the second evaporator 280 for cold storage, while the heat-absorbing refrigerant returns to the compressor 230, completing the cold storage cycle. Preferably, the cold storage tank 210 is equipped with a cold storage tank temperature sensor 210a that is electrically connected to the PID controller 100.

[0040] The temperature control system 300 is used to cool or heat the target liquid supply according to the target liquid supply parameters set by the parameter input module 110 and controlled by the PID controller 100. Specifically, the liquid in the temperature control system 300 exchanges heat with the refrigerant in the cold storage tank 210 in the cold / heat storage system 200 to cool or heat the target liquid supply. The temperature control system 300 includes an external circulation pump 310 whose input end is connected to the exchange liquid circulation outlet 280c of the second evaporator 280; a flow meter 320 whose output end is connected to the output end of the external circulation pump 310; a liquid supply pipe 330 whose other end is connected to the target liquid supply inlet; and a return liquid pipe 340 whose other end is connected to the target return liquid outlet and the exchange liquid circulation inlet 280d of the second evaporator 280. A liquid supply temperature sensor 330a is installed on the liquid supply pipe 330. A return liquid temperature sensor 340a is installed on the device. The PID controller 100 is electrically connected to the internal circulation pump 220, the external circulation pump 310, the flow meter 320, the supply liquid temperature sensor 330a, and the return liquid temperature sensor 340a. In actual use, after the exchange liquid exchanges with the refrigerant, it carries the cold / heat through the continuous delivery of the external circulation pump 310, passing through the flow meter 320 and the supply liquid pipe 330 to cool or heat the target. Then, it re-enters the second evaporator 280 through the return liquid pipe 340 to continue exchanging with the refrigerant. A solenoid valve 350 is connected between the supply liquid pipe 330 and the return liquid pipe 340. When heating or cooling the target, the solenoid valve 350 is opened, allowing the liquid flowing out of the return liquid pipe 340 to enter the supply liquid pipe 330 through the solenoid valve 350 and mix with the liquid in the supply liquid pipe 330, thus more precisely regulating the amount of cold or heat supplied to the target by the supply liquid pipe 330.
