The system comprises: a first medium channel 101 of the outdoor heat exchanger 5 is connected in series with the first medium channel 101 of the first indoor heat exchanger 3; a second medium channel 102 of the outdoor heat exchanger 5 is connected in series with the second medium channel 102 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4 and is connected to the second circulation loop 300; a circulating water pump 6 is arranged in the second circulation loop 300; wherein, a first throttling device 30 is provided on one side of the first medium channel 101 of the first indoor heat exchanger 3, and a second throttling device 40 is provided on one side of the first medium channel 101 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4, thereby realizing a plurality of functional modes by controlling the states of the circulating water pump 6, the first throttling device 30 and the second throttling device 40.

[0055] The two-pipe heat recovery air conditioning system provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure realizes multiple functional modes by controlling the states of the circulating water pump 6, the first throttling device 30 and the second throttling device 40, and satisfies the cooling or heating needs of different areas at the same time. In addition, the two-pipe heat recovery air conditioning system has a simple structure, a small refrigerant charge, fewer valves, and low control difficulty, high energy efficiency, and low energy quality required for its operation. In addition, no energy mixing occurs when switching between multiple modes, which effectively improves the energy efficiency of the system.

[0056] Alternatively, if Figure 1 As shown, the third medium channel of the outdoor heat exchanger 5 is the first air channel 103, and the air is made to flow through the first air channel 103 through the outdoor fan to exchange heat with the first medium channel 101 of the outdoor heat exchanger 5 and / or the second medium channel 102 of the outdoor heat exchanger 5; another medium channel of the first indoor heat exchanger 3 is the second air channel 104, and the air is made to flow through the second air channel 104 through the first indoor fan to exchange heat with the first medium channel 101 of the first indoor heat exchanger 3; the third medium channel of the second indoor heat exchanger 4 is the third air channel 105, and the air is made to flow through the third air channel 105 through the second indoor fan to exchange heat with the first medium channel 101 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4 and / or the second medium channel 102 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4.

[0057] In this embodiment, when the outdoor fan is started, the outdoor air flows through the first air channel 103, thereby exchanging heat with the first medium channel 101 and / or the second medium channel 102 of the outdoor heat exchanger 5. When the first indoor fan is started, the air in the area where the first indoor heat exchanger 3 is located flows through the second air channel 104, thereby exchanging heat with the first medium channel 101 of the first indoor heat exchanger 3. When the second indoor fan is started, the air in the area where the second indoor heat exchanger 4 is located flows through the third air channel 105, thereby exchanging heat with the first medium channel 101 and / or the second medium channel 102 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4.

[0058] Optionally, the circulating medium in the first circulation loop 200 includes a refrigerant. In the two-pipe heat recovery type air conditioning system provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, a compressor 1 and a four-way reversing valve 2 are also provided in the first circulation loop 200. The compressor 1 is used to drive the flow of the refrigerant in the first circulation loop 200, and the four-way reversing valve 2 is used to switch the flow direction of the refrigerant in the first circulation loop 200 so as to realize the first circulation loop 200 to run a heating cycle or a refrigeration cycle. The first throttling device 30 and the second throttling device 40 are both expansion valves, and the expansion valve is used to throttle and reduce the pressure of the refrigerant. Among them, when the first circulation loop 200 runs a heating cycle, the flow direction of its refrigerant is the compressor 1, the four-way reversing valve 2, the first indoor heat exchanger 3 and the second indoor heat exchanger 4, the outdoor heat exchanger 5 and the compressor 1. When the first circulation loop 200 runs a refrigeration cycle, the flow direction of its refrigerant is the compressor 1, the four-way reversing valve 2, the outdoor heat exchanger 5, the first indoor heat exchanger 3 and the second indoor heat exchanger 4, and the compressor 1.

[0059] Optionally, the first circulation loop 200 is further provided with an oil separator, and / or a gas-liquid separator, and / or a recooler.

[0060] Exemplarily, in a two-pipe heat recovery air conditioning system, a compressor 1, a four-way reversing valve 2, an outdoor heat exchanger 5, a first indoor heat exchanger 3, a second indoor heat exchanger 4, an oil separator, a gas-liquid separator and a subcooler are used to form a first circulation loop 200.

[0061] Optionally, the circulating medium in the second circulation loop 300 includes water or antifreeze. Water and antifreeze have excellent cooling capacity.

[0062] In this embodiment, the second medium circulates in the loop 300, and when it flows through the outdoor heat exchanger 5, after the circulating water pump 6 is turned on, the water or antifreeze exchanges heat with the first medium channel 101 of the outdoor heat exchanger 5 in the second medium channel 102; the water or antifreeze flow carries the heat or cold obtained from the outdoor heat exchanger 5 into the second medium channel 102 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4, and at this time, the corresponding area of ​​the second indoor heat exchanger 4 can be heated or cooled.

[0063] Optionally, a safety valve is further provided on the second circulation loop 300, which is used to be turned on to relieve pressure when the pressure in the second circulation loop 300 is greater than a set pressure value; and / or, a filter is further provided, which is used to filter out impurities from the circulating medium flowing through the second circulation loop 300; and / or, an expansion tank is further provided, which is used to provide a variable capacity space for the volume change caused by the change in the hot and cold temperatures of the circulating medium in the second circulation loop 300; and / or, a buffer tank is further provided, which is used to store part of the circulating medium in the second circulation loop 300 and provide a variable capacity space for the volume change caused by the change in the hot and cold temperatures of the circulating medium.

[0064] Exemplarily, in a two-pipe heat recovery air conditioning system, the second medium channel 102 of the outdoor heat exchanger 5, the second medium channel 102 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4, the circulating water pump 6, the safety valve, the filter, the expansion tank and the buffer tank together constitute the second circulation loop 300.

[0065] Optionally, the second circulation loop 300 is provided with a first regulating valve 7 , and the first regulating valve 7 is used to regulate the flow of the second circulation loop 300 .

[0066] In this embodiment, when the circulating water pump 6 is turned on, the flow of the second circulation loop 300 can be adjusted by controlling the opening of the first regulating valve 7, thereby controlling the heating or cooling capacity of the second medium channel 102 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4.

[0067] Alternatively, if Figure 2 As shown, the two-pipe heat recovery air conditioning system has a full-area heating mode. The full-area heating mode corresponds to the first circulation loop 200 running a heating cycle, the first throttling device 30 and the second throttling device 40 are both turned on, and the circulating water pump 6 is turned off.

[0068] In this embodiment, when the areas corresponding to the first indoor heat exchanger 3 and the second indoor heat exchanger 4 both have heating demand, the two-pipe heat recovery air conditioning system operates in the full-area heating mode. In the full-area heating mode, the second circulation loop 300 is in a blocked state, the first circulation loop 200 operates a heating cycle, and the first medium channel 101 of the first indoor heat exchanger 3 and the first medium channel 101 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4 are filled with high-temperature refrigerant. The first indoor fan and the second indoor fan are both started to supply hot air to the corresponding areas.

[0069] Alternatively, if Figure 3 As shown, the two-pipe heat recovery air conditioning system has a full-area cooling mode. The full-area cooling mode corresponds to the first circulation loop 200 running a refrigeration cycle, the first throttling device 30 and the second throttling device 40 are both turned on, and the circulating water pump 6 is turned off.

[0070] In this embodiment, when the areas corresponding to the first indoor heat exchanger 3 and the second indoor heat exchanger 4 both have cooling demand, the two-pipe heat recovery type air conditioning system operates in the full-area cooling mode. In the full-area cooling mode, the second circulation loop 300 is in a blocked state, the first circulation loop 200 operates a refrigeration cycle, and the first medium channel 101 of the first indoor heat exchanger 3 and the first medium channel 101 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4 are filled with low-temperature refrigerant. The first indoor fan and the second indoor fan are both started to supply cold air to the corresponding areas.

[0071] Alternatively, if Figure 4As shown, the two-pipe heat recovery air-conditioning system has a first zone cooling / heating mode, and the first zone cooling / heating mode corresponds to the first circulation loop 200 running a refrigeration cycle, the first throttling device 30 is turned on, the second throttling device 40 is closed, and the circulating water pump 6 is turned on, thereby providing cooling through the first indoor heat exchanger 3 and providing heating through the second indoor heat exchanger 4.

[0072] In this embodiment, when the area corresponding to the first indoor heat exchanger 3 has a cooling demand and the area corresponding to the second indoor heat exchanger 4 has a heating demand, the two-pipe heat recovery type air conditioning system operates the first zone cooling / heating mode. In the first zone cooling / heating mode, the second circulation loop 300 is in a circulation state, the first circulation loop 200 operates a refrigeration cycle, and the first medium channel 101 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4 is blocked. The first medium channel 101 of the outdoor heat exchanger 5 contains a high-temperature refrigerant, and the first medium channel 101 of the first indoor heat exchanger 3 contains a low-temperature refrigerant. The water or antifreeze in the second medium channel 102 of the outdoor heat exchanger 5 exchanges heat with the high-temperature refrigerant. When the water or antifreeze flows through the second medium channel 102 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4, under the action of the second indoor fan, the air passes through the third air channel 105 and exchanges heat with the second medium channel 102 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4, thereby supplying hot air to the corresponding area. At the same time, under the action of the first indoor fan, the air passes through the second air channel 104 to exchange heat with the first medium channel 101 of the first indoor heat exchanger 3, thereby supplying cold air to the corresponding area. The outdoor fan is turned on or off according to the heat balance of the system. For example, if the heat at the first medium channel 101 of the outdoor heat exchanger 5 is less, the outdoor fan is turned off, which effectively reduces the heat exchange between the outdoor air and the first medium channel 101 and the second medium channel 102 of the outdoor heat exchanger 5, and ensures the heat exchange between the first medium channel 101 and the second medium channel 102 of the outdoor heat exchanger 5. If the heat at the first medium channel 101 of the outdoor heat exchanger 5 is more, the outdoor fan is turned on to achieve energy balance in the system and ensure the heat exchange effect of the second indoor heat exchanger 4.

[0073] Alternatively, if Figure 5 As shown, the two-pipe heat recovery air-conditioning system has a second zone cooling / heating mode, and the second zone cooling / heating mode corresponds to the first circulation loop 200 running a heating cycle, the first throttling device 30 is turned on, the second throttling device 40 is closed, and the circulating water pump 6 is turned on, thereby providing heat through the first indoor heat exchanger 3 and providing cooling through the second indoor heat exchanger 4.

[0074] In this embodiment, when the area corresponding to the first indoor heat exchanger 3 has a heating demand and the area corresponding to the second indoor heat exchanger 4 has a cooling demand, the two-pipe heat recovery type air conditioning system operates the second zone cooling / heating mode. In the second zone cooling / heating mode, the second circulation loop 300 is in a circulation state, the first circulation loop 200 operates a heating cycle, and the first medium channel 101 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4 is blocked. The first medium channel 101 of the outdoor heat exchanger 5 contains a low-temperature refrigerant, and the first medium channel 101 of the first indoor heat exchanger 3 contains a high-temperature refrigerant. The water or antifreeze in the second medium channel 102 of the outdoor heat exchanger 5 exchanges heat with the low-temperature refrigerant. When the water or antifreeze flows through the second medium channel 102 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4, under the action of the second indoor fan, the air passes through the third air channel 105 and exchanges heat with the second medium channel 102 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4, thereby supplying cold air to the corresponding area. At the same time, under the action of the first indoor fan, the air exchanges heat with the first medium channel 101 of the first indoor heat exchanger 3 through the second air channel 104, thereby supplying warm air to the corresponding area.

[0075] Alternatively, if Figure 6 As shown, the second circulation loop 300 is also provided with a third indoor heat exchanger 8. The third indoor heat exchanger 8 is a dual-medium heat exchanger, and its first medium channel 101 is connected to the second circulation loop 300 and is in parallel with the second medium channel 102 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4. Another medium channel of the third indoor heat exchanger 8 is a fourth air channel 106, and a third indoor fan is provided on one side of the third indoor heat exchanger 8. Under the action of the third indoor fan, the indoor air passes through the fourth air channel 106 and exchanges heat with the first medium channel 101 of the third indoor heat exchanger 8 to form hot air or cold air. A second regulating valve 9 is provided on the inflow side of the first medium channel 101 of the third indoor heat exchanger 8, and the flow rate of the circulating medium in the second circulation loop 300 in the first medium channel 101 of the third indoor heat exchanger 8 is adjusted by the second regulating valve 9.

[0076] In this embodiment, the second indoor heat exchanger 4 and the third indoor heat exchanger 8 are arranged in the same or different areas. (1) When the two-pipe heat recovery air conditioning system operates in the first zone cooling / heating mode, the second indoor heat exchanger 4 and the third indoor heat exchanger 8 are used to heat the corresponding areas respectively, and the heating needs of different areas are met by adjusting the opening of the first regulating valve 7 and the second regulating valve 9 or the air volume of the second indoor fan and the third indoor fan. When the two-pipe heat recovery air conditioning system operates in the second zone cooling / heating mode, the second indoor heat exchanger 4 and the third indoor heat exchanger 8 are used to cool the corresponding areas respectively, and the cooling needs of different areas are met by adjusting the opening of the first regulating valve 7 and the second regulating valve 9 or the air volume of the second indoor fan and the third indoor fan.

[0077] (2) When the two-pipe heat recovery air conditioning system operates in the full-area heating / cooling mode, the third indoor heat exchanger 8 supplies cooling / heating to the corresponding areas respectively, and the cooling / heating demand of the corresponding areas is met by adjusting the opening of the second regulating valve 9 or the air volume of the third indoor fan. In the full-area heating / cooling mode, the difference from the above embodiment is that the second circulation loop 300 is in a circulation state. The water or antifreeze in the second medium channel 102 of the outdoor heat exchanger 5 exchanges heat with the low-temperature / high-temperature refrigerant. When the water or antifreeze flows through the first medium channel 101 of the third indoor heat exchanger 8, under the action of the third indoor fan, the air passes through the fourth air channel 106 and exchanges heat with the first medium channel 101 of the third indoor heat exchanger 8, thereby supplying cooling / hot air to the corresponding areas.

[0078] (3) When the two-pipe heat recovery air conditioning system operates in the full-area heating / cooling mode, the third indoor heat exchanger 8 provides heating / cooling to the corresponding area respectively, and the heating / cooling demand of the corresponding area is met by adjusting the opening of the second regulating valve 9 or the air volume of the third indoor fan. In the full-area heating / cooling mode, the difference from the above embodiment is that the second circulation loop 300 is in a circulation state. Under the action of the heat pump cycle, when the generated heat passes through the first medium channel 101 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4, on the one hand, under the action of the fan, it is transferred to the air in the third air heat exchange channel 105 to form hot air to provide heating / cooling demand for the indoor room. On the other hand, the water or antifreeze in the second medium channel 102 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4 exchanges heat with the high-temperature / low-temperature refrigerant in the first medium channel 101. When the water or antifreeze flows through the first medium channel 101 of the third indoor heat exchanger 8, under the action of the third indoor fan, the air passes through the fourth air channel 106 and exchanges heat with the first medium channel 101 of the third indoor heat exchanger 8, thereby providing heating / cooling air to the corresponding area.

[0079] Optionally, when the two-pipe heat recovery air conditioning system has a plurality of first indoor heat exchangers 3 , the first medium channels 101 of the plurality of first indoor heat exchangers 3 are connected in parallel and communicated with the first circulation loop 200 .

[0080] Optionally, in the case of multiple second indoor heat exchangers 4, the second medium channels 102 of the multiple second indoor heat exchangers 4 are connected in parallel and connected to the second circulation loop 300. A first regulating valve 7 is provided on the inflow side of the second medium channel 102 of each second indoor heat exchanger 4, so that the heating or cooling capacity of the corresponding second indoor heat exchanger 4 is adjusted by controlling the opening of each first regulating valve 7 or the air volume of the second indoor fan. In this way, the two-pipe heat recovery air conditioning system can effectively adjust the cooling or heating capacity of different areas while meeting the cooling or heating needs of different areas.

[0081] Exemplarily, the two-pipe heat recovery air conditioning system has two first indoor heat exchangers 3 and two second indoor heat exchangers 4, wherein the two first indoor heat exchangers 3 are respectively located in area one and area two, and the two second indoor heat exchangers 4 are respectively located in area three and area four. When area one and area two have cooling demand, area three has low-speed heating demand, and area four has fast heating demand, the two-pipe heat recovery air conditioning system operates the first zone cooling / heating mode. At this time, the two first indoor heat exchangers 3 supply cold air to the corresponding areas one and two, respectively, and the two second indoor heat exchangers 4 supply warm air to the corresponding areas three and four, respectively. In addition, the opening of the first regulating valve 7 corresponding to the second indoor heat exchanger 4 in area three is adjusted to 1 / 4, and the opening of the first regulating valve 7 corresponding to the second indoor heat exchanger 4 in area four is adjusted to fully open. In this way, the flow rate of water or refrigerant in the second medium channel 102 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4 in area three is small, which meets the low-speed heating demand of area three; the flow rate of water or refrigerant in the second medium channel 102 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4 in area four is large, which meets the rapid heating demand of area three.

[0082] In another exemplary embodiment, the two-pipe heat recovery air conditioning system has two first indoor heat exchangers 3 and two second indoor heat exchangers 4, wherein the two first indoor heat exchangers 3 are respectively located in area one and area two, and the two second indoor heat exchangers 4 are respectively located in area three and area four. When area one and area two have heating demand, area three has low-speed cooling demand, and area four has fast cooling demand, the two-pipe heat recovery air conditioning system operates the second zone cooling / heating mode. At this time, the two first indoor heat exchangers 3 respectively supply heating air to the corresponding areas one and two, and the two second indoor heat exchangers 4 respectively supply cooling air to the corresponding areas three and four. In addition, the power of the first fan corresponding to the second indoor heat exchanger 4 in area three is adjusted to 1 / 4, and the power of the first fan corresponding to the second indoor heat exchanger 4 in area four is adjusted to the maximum. In this way, the air volume of the third air channel 105 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4 in area three is small, which meets the low-speed cooling demand of area three; the air volume of the third air channel 105 of the second indoor heat exchanger 4 in area four is large, which meets the fast cooling demand of area three.
