The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present application, and cannot be understood as a limitation on the present application.
[0047] The present embodiment provides a liquid cooling system which can improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the drive board, improve the operation capacity of the unit, and save costs.
[0048] As Figures 1-2As shown, the liquid cooling system mainly includes a compressor 10, a four-way valve 20, a plate heat exchanger 30, a drive plate 40, a fin heat exchanger 50, a first electronic expansion valve 60, a second electronic expansion valve 70, and a first temperature sensor 80. The compressor 10 is in communication with the plate heat exchanger 30 through the four-way valve 20, one end of the drive plate 40 is in communication with the plate heat exchanger 30, and the other end is in communication with the fin heat exchanger 50, and the fin heat exchanger 50 is in communication with the compressor 10 through the four-way valve 20.
[0049] The first electronic expansion valve 60 is arranged between the drive plate 40 and the plate heat exchanger 30, the second electronic expansion valve 70 is arranged between the drive plate 40 and the fin heat exchanger 50, and the first temperature sensor 80 is arranged between the second electronic expansion valve 70 and the drive plate 40. The first temperature sensor 80 is used to detect the temperature of the refrigerant between the second electronic expansion valve 70 and the drive plate 40.
[0050] Based on the above design, in this embodiment, when the liquid cooling system operates in a heating mode, the first electronic expansion valve 60 can dynamically adjust the opening degree of the first electronic expansion valve 60 according to the temperature value of the first temperature sensor 80, so that the refrigerant flowing through the first electronic expansion valve 60 can be throttled and decompressed from a high-temperature and high-pressure liquid state to a low-temperature and low-pressure gas-liquid mixed state, thereby reducing the temperature and pressure of the refrigerant, so that the subsequent refrigerant flowing through the drive plate 40 can effectively take away the heat of the drive plate 40, improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the drive plate 40. In other words, by throttling and decompressing the refrigerant through the first electronic expansion valve 60, the temperature difference between the refrigerant and the temperature of the drive plate 40 can be formed, thereby taking away the heat of the drive plate 40, and realizing the liquid cooling heat dissipation effect of the drive plate 40.
[0051] At the same time, through the temperature feedback of the refrigerant flowing out of the drive plate 40 by the first temperature sensor 80, the first electronic expansion valve 60 can realize the function of dynamically adjusting the opening degree, that is, the temperature of the refrigerant flowing into the drive plate 40 can be dynamically adjusted, thereby ensuring the heat dissipation effect of the drive plate 40, improving the operating capacity of the unit, and saving costs.
[0052] When the liquid cooling system operates in a cooling mode, the second electronic expansion valve 70 can dynamically adjust the opening degree of the second electronic expansion valve 70 according to the temperature value of the first temperature sensor 80, so that the refrigerant flowing through the second electronic expansion valve 70 can be throttled and decompressed from a high-temperature and high-pressure liquid state to a low-temperature and low-pressure gas-liquid mixed state, thereby reducing the temperature and pressure of the refrigerant, so that the subsequent refrigerant flowing through the drive plate 40 can effectively take away the heat of the drive plate 40, improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the drive plate 40. In other words, by throttling and decompressing the refrigerant through the second electronic expansion valve 70, the temperature difference between the refrigerant and the temperature of the drive plate 40 can be formed, thereby taking away the heat of the drive plate 40, and realizing the liquid cooling heat dissipation effect of the drive plate 40.
[0053] Meanwhile, through the feedback of the temperature of the refrigerant flowing into the drive board 40 (i.e. the temperature of the refrigerant after the pressure reduction of the second electronic expansion valve 70) by the first temperature sensor 80, the second electronic expansion valve 70 can realize the function of dynamically adjusting the opening degree, i.e. can dynamically adjust the temperature of the refrigerant flowing into the drive board 40, so as to ensure the heat dissipation effect of the drive board 40, improve the operation capacity of the unit, and save the cost.
[0054] When the liquid cooling system is in the heating mode, the first temperature sensor 80 detects the temperature of the refrigerant flowing out of the drive board 40, and the first electronic expansion valve 60 dynamically adjusts the opening degree according to the temperature of the first temperature sensor 80, so as to dynamically adjust the temperature of the refrigerant flowing into the drive board 40 and improve the heat dissipation effect of the drive board 40; when the liquid cooling system is in the cooling mode, the first temperature sensor 80 detects the temperature of the refrigerant flowing into the drive board 40, and at this time, the second electronic expansion valve 70 dynamically adjusts the opening degree according to the temperature of the first temperature sensor 80, so as to dynamically adjust the temperature of the refrigerant flowing into the drive board 40 and improve the heat dissipation effect of the drive board 40. In this way, the liquid cooling system can ensure the liquid cooling heat dissipation effect of the drive board 40 in both the heating mode and the cooling mode, improve the flexible applicability, improve the operation capacity of the unit, and save the cost.
[0055] The liquid cooling system in the embodiment further comprises a controller, which is electrically connected with the first electronic expansion valve 60, the second electronic expansion valve 70 and the first temperature sensor 80. Through the setting of the controller, the first temperature sensor 80 can feed back the detected temperature of the refrigerant to the controller in real time, and then the controller dynamically adjusts the opening degree of the first electronic expansion valve 60 and the second electronic expansion valve 70 according to the temperature data, so as to throttle and reduce the pressure of the refrigerant and ensure the liquid cooling heat dissipation effect of the drive board 40 and improve the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0056] Optionally, the controller in the embodiment can be a PLC controller commonly seen on the market, and therefore, the structure and working principle thereof will not be described in detail here.
[0057] As shown in Figure 1 In the embodiment, the four-way valve 20 has an a port, a b port, a c port and a d port, the a port is communicated with the exhaust port of the compressor 10, and the a port is communicated with the plate heat exchanger 30 through the d port, the b port is communicated with the fin heat exchanger 50, and the b port is communicated with the suction port of the compressor 10 through the c port. When the liquid cooling system is in the heating mode, the flow direction of the refrigerant in the liquid cooling system is shown by the arrow direction in Figure 1 .
[0058] Further, the liquid cooling system in the embodiment further comprises a suction temperature sensor 110 and a second temperature sensor 90. The suction temperature sensor 110 is arranged between the suction port of the compressor 10 and the four-way valve 20, and is configured to detect the temperature of the refrigerant entering the suction port of the compressor 10. The second temperature sensor 90 is arranged on the finned heat exchanger 50, and is configured to detect the temperature of the coil in the finned heat exchanger 50. In this way, the refrigerant supply amount of the finned heat exchanger 50 can be controlled according to the suction superheat of the compressor 10 = the temperature of the refrigerant at the suction port of the compressor 10 - the temperature of the coil in the finned heat exchanger 50, so as to ensure that the refrigerant supply amount of the finned heat exchanger 50 meets the requirements.
[0059] Further, in the heating mode, the second electronic expansion valve 70 is controlled so that the second electronic expansion valve 70 can dynamically adjust the opening degree of the second electronic expansion valve 70 according to the suction superheat of the compressor 10, so as to ensure that the refrigerant supply amount of the finned heat exchanger 50 meets the requirements, thereby ensuring stable operation of the unit.
[0060] As shown in Figure 2 In the embodiment, the four-way valve 20 has an a port, a b port, a c port and a d port. The a port is in communication with the discharge port of the compressor 10. The a port is in communication with the b port. The b port is in communication with the finned heat exchanger 50. The d port is in communication with the suction port of the compressor 10 through the c port. When the liquid cooling system is in the cooling mode, the flow direction of the refrigerant in the liquid cooling system is shown by the arrow direction in Figure 2 .
[0061] Further, the liquid cooling system in the embodiment further comprises a suction temperature sensor 110 and a third temperature sensor 100. The suction temperature sensor 110 is arranged between the suction port of the compressor 10 and the four-way valve 20, and is configured to detect the temperature of the refrigerant entering the suction port of the compressor 10. The third temperature sensor 100 is arranged between the first electronic expansion valve 60 and the plate heat exchanger 30, and is configured to detect the temperature of the refrigerant between the first electronic expansion valve 60 and the plate heat exchanger 30. In this way, the refrigerant supply amount of the plate heat exchanger 30 can be controlled according to the suction superheat of the compressor 10 = the temperature of the refrigerant at the suction port of the compressor 10 - the temperature of the refrigerant between the first electronic expansion valve 60 and the plate heat exchanger 30, so as to ensure that the refrigerant supply amount of the plate heat exchanger 30 meets the requirements.
[0062] Optionally, the third temperature sensor 100 in the embodiment can also be arranged on the plate heat exchanger 30, and is configured to detect the temperature of the refrigerant flowing into the coil of the plate heat exchanger 30, so as to improve the integration and compactness of the structure of the liquid cooling system, and save installation space.
[0063] Furthermore, in the cooling mode, it controls the first electronic expansion valve 60 so that the first electronic expansion valve 60 can dynamically adjust its own opening according to the suction superheat of the compressor 10, thereby ensuring that the refrigerant supply volume of the plate heat exchanger 30 meets the requirements to ensure stable operation of the unit.
[0064] like Figures 1-2 As shown, in this embodiment, the liquid cooling system further includes an air conditioning water inlet pipe 31 and an air conditioning water outlet pipe 32, both of which are connected to the plate heat exchanger 30. The arrangement of the air conditioning water inlet pipe 31 and the air conditioning water outlet pipe 32 ensures that the plate heat exchanger 30 has sufficient cooling water for heat exchange, thereby ensuring stable operation of the unit.
[0065] This embodiment further provides a control method for a liquid cooling system, which is applied to the above-mentioned liquid cooling system. The control method for the liquid cooling system includes:
[0066] When the unit operates in heating mode, the opening of the first electronic expansion valve 60 is opened to the maximum, and the unit operates for a preset time.
[0067] Specifically, at this time, the opening of the first electronic expansion valve 60 is opened to 480P, and the preset time of the unit operation can be set to 30 seconds to 120 seconds. This can make the refrigerant in the unit flow stably, which is beneficial to improve the accuracy of the refrigerant temperature detected by the subsequent first temperature sensor 80, ensure the stability of the unit operation, and improve the operating capacity.
[0068] Obtain the temperature of the first temperature sensor 80; when the temperature of the first temperature sensor 80 is greater than the first preset temperature, the first electronic expansion valve 60 closes 5% of the current opening every 15 seconds, thereby gradually improving the throttling and pressure reduction effect on the refrigerant, and reducing the temperature and pressure of the refrigerant until the refrigerant temperature detected by the first temperature sensor 80 is less than the second preset temperature. At this time, the opening of the first electronic expansion valve 60 is controlled to maintain the current opening unchanged, thereby improving the liquid cooling and heat dissipation effect of the refrigerant on the drive plate 40.
[0069] Optionally, in this embodiment, the first preset temperature can be set to 55°C, and the second preset temperature can be set to 50°C.
[0070] When the unit operates in cooling mode, the second electronic expansion valve 70 is opened to the maximum, and the unit operates for a preset time.
[0071] Specifically, at this time, the opening of the second electronic expansion valve 70 is opened to 480P, and the preset time of the unit operation can be set to 30 seconds to 120 seconds. This can make the refrigerant in the unit flow stably, which is beneficial to improve the accuracy of the refrigerant temperature detected by the subsequent first temperature sensor 80, ensure the stability of the unit operation, and improve the operating capacity.
[0072] The temperature of the first temperature sensor 80 is acquired; when the temperature of the first temperature sensor 80 is greater than a first preset temperature, the second electronic expansion valve 70 is closed by 5% of the current opening degree every 15 seconds, so as to gradually increase the throttling pressure reduction effect on the refrigerant, reduce the temperature and pressure of the refrigerant, until the refrigerant temperature detected by the first temperature sensor 80 is less than a second preset temperature, at this time, the opening degree of the second electronic expansion valve 70 is controlled to remain unchanged at the current opening degree, so as to improve the liquid cooling heat dissipation effect of the refrigerant on the drive board 40.
[0073] Optionally, the first preset temperature in the embodiment can be set to 55℃, and the second preset temperature can be set to 50℃.
[0074] The control method of the liquid cooling system in the embodiment is simple in steps, and can improve the heat dissipation efficiency on the drive board 40 in the heating mode and the cooling mode, improve the operation capacity of the unit, and achieve the purpose of saving cost.
