[0070] In order to solve the technical problem in the prior art that due to changes in the evaporator such as ice, dirt and load, the temperature of the refrigerant and the temperature difference between the conditioned space will also change accordingly, which will cause the unit to be in standby mode before the required temperature is reached and still run after the required temperature is reached, which is not conducive to precise control of the unit and will increase the energy consumption of the unit and the instability of operation, the present disclosure provides a standby control method, device, system, equipment and storage medium.
[0071] Among them, in the present disclosure, after the parallel screw unit is in the standby state, the current first temperature threshold and the current refrigerant temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator can be obtained first, and then the first temperature threshold is corrected based on the refrigerant temperature to obtain the corrected first temperature threshold, and then the corrected first temperature threshold is used to continue to control the operation of the parallel screw unit until the parallel screw unit enters the standby state again, and the new first temperature threshold is re-corrected based on the current refrigerant temperature after standby in this cycle, thereby reducing the impact of changes such as evaporator icing, dirt and load on the parallel screw unit, more accurately controlling the parallel screw unit to standby while meeting the required temperature, reducing the energy consumption of the parallel logic unit, improving the control accuracy of the parallel screw unit, and improving the stability of the operation of the parallel screw unit.
[0072] In an exemplary embodiment, a standby control method is provided, which can be applied to a parallel screw unit. The parallel screw unit is mainly composed of multiple screw compressors connected in parallel, which work together to meet different load requirements. This unit is widely used in many fields such as industrial refrigeration, commercial air conditioning, and large refrigeration facilities. In this embodiment, the parallel screw unit includes at least two parallel screw compressors, and may also include other devices such as evaporators to meet refrigeration needs.
[0073] refer to Figure 1 As shown, the standby control method may include:
[0074] S110, after the parallel screw unit is in a standby state, obtaining a current first temperature threshold of the parallel screw unit and a current refrigerant temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator of the parallel screw unit;
[0075] S120, correcting the current first temperature threshold based on the current refrigerant temperature to determine a corrected first temperature threshold;
[0076] S130. Control the operation of the parallel screw units based on the corrected first temperature threshold until the parallel screw units enter the standby state again.
[0077] In step S110, the first temperature threshold is the maximum temperature value for the parallel screw unit to enter the standby state. That is, when the parallel screw unit is in operation, if the temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator of the parallel screw unit drops to the second standby temperature limit value, the parallel screw unit can be controlled to enter the standby state and the temperature regulation of the regulated space is suspended.
[0078] When the parallel screw unit is in the standby state, if the temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator rises to the first temperature threshold, the parallel screw unit can be controlled to exit the standby state and continue to regulate the temperature of the regulated space.
[0079] It should be noted that, in general, a second temperature threshold is also provided in the parallel screw unit. The difference between the first temperature threshold and the second temperature threshold (recorded as the standby temperature difference) is fixed. The second temperature threshold is the minimum temperature value for the parallel screw unit to exit the standby state. The second temperature threshold is greater than the first temperature threshold. When the parallel screw unit is in the standby state, if the temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator rises to the second temperature threshold, the parallel screw unit can be controlled to exit the standby state and continue to adjust the temperature of the regulated space.
[0080] In this step, after the parallel screw unit is in the standby state, the current first temperature threshold value can be obtained from the parallel screw unit, and the current temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator of the parallel screw unit can be obtained, which is recorded as the current refrigerant temperature. The first temperature threshold value can be stored in the memory of the parallel screw unit. The temperature of the refrigerant can be detected by a temperature detection device arranged on the evaporator. The temperature detection device can be, for example, a temperature sensor.
[0081] It should be noted that, in addition to obtaining the first temperature threshold and the current refrigerant temperature in the above manner, they may also be obtained in other manners, which are not limited thereto.
[0082] In step S120, after the current first temperature threshold and the current refrigerant temperature are obtained, the first temperature threshold can be corrected by the current refrigerant temperature, so as to obtain a first temperature threshold that is more suitable for the current state of the parallel screw unit.
[0083] It should be noted that in the related art, the first temperature threshold of the parallel screw unit is generally preset in advance and fixed. However, as the evaporator freezes, dirt and load change, the temperature difference between the refrigerant temperature and the conditioned space will also change, resulting in that when the refrigerant temperature reaches the condition to enter standby, the temperature of the conditioned space may not reach the condition to enter standby; or when the refrigerant temperature reaches the condition to exit standby, the temperature of the conditioned space may not reach the condition to exit standby. In other words, the previously calibrated first temperature threshold may not meet the control requirements of the parallel screw unit.
[0084] In this embodiment, by using the current refrigerant temperature to correct the first temperature threshold, the influence of changes such as evaporator icing, dirt, and load on the difference between the refrigerant temperature and the temperature of the conditioned space can be better avoided.
[0085] In this embodiment, a correction coefficient can be configured in the parallel screw unit. When the current first temperature threshold is corrected based on the current refrigerant temperature, the difference between the current refrigerant temperature and the first standby temperature limit value in the current first temperature threshold can be calculated first, and then the product of the correction coefficient and the difference can be calculated, and finally the sum of the current first standby temperature limit value and the product can be determined as the corrected first standby temperature limit value.
[0086] It should be noted that the correction coefficient can be fixed or non-fixed, and there is no limitation on this.
[0087] In step S130, after obtaining the corrected first temperature threshold, the operation of the parallel screw unit can be controlled based on the corrected first temperature threshold. It should be noted that the parallel screw unit is already in standby mode at this time. Therefore, the corrected second temperature threshold can be determined based on the corrected first temperature threshold; wherein the second temperature threshold is the minimum temperature value for the parallel screw unit to exit the standby mode. Since the first temperature threshold and the second temperature threshold are generally fixed, the corrected second temperature threshold can be determined based on the standby temperature difference and the first temperature threshold. Of course, the corrected second temperature threshold can also be determined by referring to the correction method of the first temperature threshold, and there is no limitation on this.
[0088] In this step, when the parallel screw unit is in standby mode, the temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator can be monitored. If it is determined that the temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator is greater than or equal to the second temperature threshold, it means that the temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator can no longer meet the temperature regulation demand. The parallel screw unit can be controlled to exit the standby mode and perform refrigeration to lower the temperature of the refrigerant, thereby better meeting the refrigeration demand of the regulated space.
[0089] After the parallel screw unit exits the standby state, the temperature of the refrigerant can continue to be monitored. If it is determined that the temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator is less than or equal to the first temperature threshold, it means that the temperature of the refrigerant is low enough, and the parallel screw unit can be controlled to enter the standby state again. After the parallel screw unit enters the standby state again, the current first temperature threshold of the parallel screw unit and the current refrigerant temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator of the parallel screw unit can be re-acquired, and then subsequent operations can be performed, and the cycle is repeated.
[0090] In this embodiment, after the parallel screw unit is in the standby state, the current first temperature threshold and the current refrigerant temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator can be obtained first, and then the first temperature threshold is corrected based on the refrigerant temperature to obtain the corrected first temperature threshold, and then the corrected first temperature threshold is used to continue to control the operation of the parallel screw unit until the parallel screw unit enters the standby state again. The new first temperature threshold is re-corrected based on the current refrigerant temperature after standby in this cycle, thereby reducing the impact of changes such as evaporator icing, dirt and load on the parallel screw unit, more accurately controlling the parallel screw unit to standby while meeting the required temperature, reducing the energy consumption of the parallel logic unit, improving the control accuracy of the parallel screw unit, and improving the stability of the operation of the parallel screw unit.
[0091] In an exemplary embodiment, a standby control method is provided, which can be applied to a parallel screw compressor unit. Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in the standby control method, the current first temperature threshold is corrected based on the current refrigerant temperature to determine the corrected first temperature threshold, which may include:
[0092] S210, determining a temperature difference between a current first temperature threshold and a current refrigerant temperature;
[0093] S220, determining a correction coefficient of the first temperature threshold based on at least one parameter of a thermal conductivity, a convection heat transfer coefficient, and a radiation heat transfer coefficient corresponding to the evaporator;
[0094] S230: Determine a corrected first temperature threshold based on the current first temperature threshold, the temperature difference, and the correction coefficient.
[0095] In step S210, the current first temperature threshold may be recorded as Tm, the current refrigerant temperature may be recorded as T0, and the temperature difference may be recorded as Δt, where Δt=Tm-T0.
[0096] In step S220, it should be noted that the correction coefficient is mainly used to compensate for external uncertain conditions (such as changing load, evaporator icing, etc.), and is set to a number greater than 0. The correction coefficient ξ can be a fixed value or an adjustable value, which is not limited.
[0097] Among them, the correction coefficient ξ may be related to the thermal conductivity λ, the convective heat transfer coefficient h, the radiation heat transfer coefficient σ, etc. In this step, the correction coefficient ξ of the first temperature threshold can be determined based on at least one parameter of the thermal conductivity λ, the convective heat transfer coefficient h, and the radiation heat transfer coefficient σ corresponding to the evaporator to improve the reliability of the correction coefficient ξ. For example, the final correction coefficient ξ can be comprehensively determined based on the thermal conductivity λ, the convective heat transfer coefficient h, and the radiation heat transfer coefficient σ corresponding to the above-mentioned evaporator to better ensure the reliability of the correction coefficient ξ, thereby better improving the control accuracy of the parallel screw unit.
[0098] The thermal conductivity λ can be determined based on the unit load of the parallel screw unit, the heat transfer area of the evaporator, the wall thickness of the heat exchange tube in the evaporator, the temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator, and the target set temperature of the parallel screw unit: Where Q is the unit load of the parallel screw unit, in W; A is the heat transfer area of the evaporator, in m 2 ; T1 is the temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator, and the current refrigerant temperature T0 can be used directly here; T2 is the target set temperature of the parallel screw unit, that is, the temperature that the regulated space needs to reach that is set manually; L is the wall thickness of the heat exchange tube in the evaporator, in meters.
[0099] The flow heat transfer coefficient h can be determined based on the unit load Q, the heat transfer area A, the temperature T1 of the refrigerant in the evaporator, and the target set temperature T2:
[0100] The radiation heat transfer coefficient σ can be determined based on the heat transfer area A, the emissivity ε1 of the outer surface of the evaporator, the emissivity ε2 of the solid surface of the conditioned space, and the Stefan-Boltzmann constant θ: After the parallel screw unit is determined, the emissivity ε1 of the outer surface of the evaporator and the emissivity ε2 of the solid surface of the conditioned space are generally fixed values.
[0101] In this step, after determining the thermal conductivity λ, convection heat transfer coefficient h and radiation heat transfer coefficient σ corresponding to the evaporator, the correction coefficient ζ=f(λ, h, σ) can be determined based on the above parameters. That is to say, the size of the correction coefficient is mainly related to the unit load Q and the refrigerant temperature T1.
[0102] Among them, f in ζ=f(λ, h, σ) can be determined based on simulation experiments or parameter fitting, and its specific function is not limited.
[0103] In some embodiments,
[0104] Wherein, K1 is the first constant corresponding to the thermal conductivity λ, K2 is the second constant corresponding to the convection heat transfer coefficient h, and K3 is the third constant corresponding to the radiation heat transfer coefficient σ.
[0105] That is to say, in this embodiment, the first constant K1 corresponding to the thermal conductivity λ, the second constant K2 corresponding to the convective heat transfer coefficient h, and the third constant K3 corresponding to the radiation heat transfer coefficient σ can be obtained first, and then the correction coefficient ξ is determined based on the following formula:
[0106] Among them, the difference between the current refrigerant temperature and the target setting temperature is different, and the heat exchange dominant factor of the evaporator may change. In order to adapt to the above changes, the first constant K1 and the second constant K2 can be set to be variable. In this embodiment, it can be set as follows: the greater the difference between the current refrigerant temperature and the target setting temperature, the greater the first constant K1; the greater the difference between the current refrigerant temperature and the target setting temperature, the greater the second constant K2.
[0107] In this embodiment, when determining the correction coefficient, the first constant K1 can be adjusted based on the current refrigerant temperature and the target set temperature of the parallel screw unit. Among them, the first configuration information can be stored in the parallel screw unit, and the first configuration information can include multiple first constant setting values and multiple first temperature intervals, and the multiple first constant setting values correspond to the multiple first temperature intervals one by one. It should be noted that the first configuration information can be configured according to actual conditions, and its specific content may not be limited. In addition, the first configuration information is subsequently modified according to actual needs to better ensure the control accuracy of the parallel screw unit.
[0108] Among them, when adjusting the first constant K1, the first configuration information can be obtained, and the difference between the current refrigerant temperature and the target set temperature can be determined, and then the first temperature interval to which the above difference belongs in the first configuration information is determined as the target first temperature interval, and then the first constant setting value corresponding to the above target first temperature interval is determined as the adjusted first constant K1.
[0109] Similarly, the second configuration information may be stored in the parallel screw unit, and the second configuration information may include multiple second constant setting values and multiple second temperature intervals, and the multiple second constant setting values correspond to the multiple second temperature intervals one by one. It should be noted that the second configuration information may be configured according to actual conditions, and its specific content may not be limited. In addition, the second configuration information may be modified later according to actual needs to better ensure the control accuracy of the parallel screw unit.
[0110] Among them, when adjusting the second constant K2, the second configuration information can be obtained, and the difference between the current refrigerant temperature and the target set temperature can be determined, and then the second temperature interval to which the above difference belongs in the second configuration information is determined as the target second temperature interval, and then the second constant setting value corresponding to the above target second temperature interval is determined as the adjusted second constant K2.
[0111] After determining the first constant K1, the second constant K2 and the third constant K3, we can use the formula Determine the correction factor ξ.
[0112] It should be noted that, in addition to determining the correction coefficient ξ in the above manner, it can also be determined in other manners, which are not limited. In addition, in order to simplify the control logic, the first constant K1 and the second constant K2 can also be set to fixed values, which are not limited.
[0113] In step S230, after determining the correction coefficient ξ, the current first temperature threshold and the temperature difference, the corrected first temperature threshold Tm=Tn+ξ*△t can be determined based on the following formula. Tn is the original first temperature threshold, that is, the current first temperature threshold; Tm is the newly determined first temperature threshold, that is, the corrected first temperature threshold. After obtaining the new first temperature threshold, the first temperature threshold stored in the parallel screw unit can be updated.
[0114] After the first temperature threshold is updated, the parallel screw unit can be controlled to operate based on the updated first temperature threshold. At this time, the parallel screw unit is still in standby mode. When the parallel screw unit is in standby mode, the temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator can be monitored. If it is determined that the temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator is greater than or equal to the second temperature threshold, it means that the temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator can no longer meet the temperature regulation requirements. The parallel screw unit can be controlled to exit the standby mode and perform refrigeration to reduce the temperature of the refrigerant, thereby better meeting the refrigeration requirements of the regulated space.
[0115] After the parallel screw unit exits the standby state, the temperature of the refrigerant (which can be recorded as Te) can continue to be monitored. If it is determined that the temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator is less than or equal to the first temperature threshold, it means that the temperature of the refrigerant is low enough, and the parallel screw unit can be controlled to enter the standby state again. After the parallel screw unit is unloaded, it stands by and then recycles to learn and correct the first temperature threshold. That is, after the parallel screw unit enters the standby state again, the current first temperature threshold of the parallel screw unit and the current refrigerant temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator of the parallel screw unit can be re-acquired, and then subsequent operations are performed, and the cycle is repeated, thereby reducing the impact of changes such as evaporator icing, dirt and load on the parallel screw unit, more accurately controlling the parallel screw unit to stand by while meeting the required temperature, reducing the energy consumption of the parallel logic unit, improving the control accuracy of the parallel screw unit, and improving the stability of the operation of the parallel screw unit.
[0116] In this standby control method, by continuously implementing incremental adjustments and conducting autonomous learning, the temperature of the regulated space is ultimately equal to the required temperature when the unit is on standby.

[0148] In an exemplary embodiment, a standby control system is provided, which is applied to a parallel screw compressor unit and is configured to execute the standby control method in the above embodiment to realize standby control of the parallel screw compressor unit.
[0149] In an exemplary embodiment, a parallel screw compressor unit is provided. Figure 5 As shown, the parallel screw unit may include a compressor 1, an oil separator 2, a condenser 3, an electronic expansion valve 4, an evaporator 5, an oil cooler 6 and a processor 101, etc.
[0150] In the parallel screw unit, the refrigerant and the refrigeration oil enter the oil separator 2 after being compressed by the compressor 1. The refrigerant gas separated by the oil separator 2 enters the condenser 3, and the refrigeration oil enters the oil cooler 6, and then returns to the compressor 1. After the refrigerant comes out of the condenser 3, it passes through the electronic expansion valve 4, enters the evaporator 5 after being throttled by the electronic expansion valve 4, and returns to the compressor 1 after absorbing heat in the evaporator 5.

[0152] It should be noted that the parallel screw unit generally does not control the standby of the unit by the terminal temperature, but stands by when the temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator 5 of the unit reaches the set first temperature threshold. There is a certain temperature difference between the temperature of the refrigerant and the terminal temperature, which is related to the heat transfer coefficient of the evaporator 5, and the heat transfer coefficient is uncontrollable. The first temperature threshold in the related technology is generally a fixed value, and the actual operation of the unit will be affected by various environmental factors, resulting in the fixed value of the first temperature threshold cannot accurately realize the control of the parallel screw unit. The parallel screw unit of this embodiment is equipped with a self-learning standby control method, which achieves the purpose of accurately controlling the standby of the parallel screw unit by continuously learning and correcting the first temperature threshold.
