AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

After the air source heat pump unit is shut down at a low ring temperature and high water temperature, the compressor is prone to oil shortage when the re-opening mechanism is started, and the existing technology is difficult to effectively solve this problem.

Method used

After the unit is turned on, it first enters the defrost operation, and quickly sucks the lubricating oil deposited on the evaporation side back to the compressor to ensure that the return oil is operated reliably when the compressor starts.

Benefits of technology

By quickly sucking back the lubricant deposited on the evaporation side, ensuring that the compressor has sufficient lubricant when starting, avoiding oil shortage and improving the reliability of the compressor.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a control method for starting an air source heat pump for heating. Background Art

[0002] After the air source heat pump unit is shut down due to low ambient temperature and high water temperature, the mixture of refrigerant and oil usually migrates and deposits to the low-temperature side evaporator. When the unit is turned on again for heating after a long shutdown time, the compressor usually lacks oil in the initial startup. The current solution is generally to use a low-frequency platform operation when the compressor is started to reduce the amount of oil discharged in the initial stage of compressor startup. Although this method can reduce the amount of oil discharged from the compressor, the amount of lubricating oil returning to the compressor is also less. After running for a period of time, the compressor is still short of oil. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a control method for the start-up of an air source heat pump heating system. The method first enters the defrost operation after the unit is turned on for heating, and quickly absorbs the lubricating oil deposited on the evaporation side back to the compressor, ensuring reliable oil return operation when the compressor starts.

[0004] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is implemented as follows: it is a control method for starting an air source heat pump heating system, comprising a heat pump unit, an ambient temperature sensor, a water inlet temperature sensor and an external coil temperature sensor, and the control method is as follows: Collection phase Step 1, the heat pump unit collects the downtime t1 and sets the downtime judgment value △t1; the ambient temperature sensor collects the ambient temperature T1 and sets the ambient temperature judgment value △T1 for the heat pump unit; the water inlet temperature sensor collects the water inlet temperature T2 and sets the water inlet temperature judgment value △T2 for the heat pump unit; the external coil temperature sensor collects the external coil temperature T3 and sets the external coil temperature judgment value △T3 for the heat pump unit; the heat pump unit records the defrost operation time t2 and sets the defrost time judgment value △t2; Control Phase Step 1: Start the heat pump unit; Step 2: The first power-on time of the heat pump unit is t3. When t3≥△t1 or t1≥△t1, then go to step 3, otherwise go to step 6; Step 3: When T1≤△T1 and T2≥△T2, go to step 4; otherwise, go to step 6; Step 4: The heat pump unit enters the defrosting stage and proceeds to step 5; Step 5: When T3≥△T3 or t2≥△t2, go to step 6, otherwise go to step 4; Step 6: The heat pump unit enters the heating stage.
