Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of unit energy saving, and in particular to an ultra-low pressure ratio operation energy saving control method for an energy storage battery liquid cooling unit. Background Art

[0002] At present, the energy structure is undergoing rapid changes. As a form of new energy, energy storage batteries are currently in a period of rapid development in applications, such as household storage, industrial and commercial storage, energy storage power stations, etc. Liquid cooling units, as a common equipment for thermal management of energy storage batteries, are also in a period of rapid development. Figure 2 It is shown that the structure distribution of the energy storage battery liquid cooling unit system is mainly composed of a compressor, a low-pressure sensor, a return air temperature sensor, a return liquid temperature sensor, a liquid supply temperature sensor, a medium heat exchanger, an electronic expansion valve, an ambient temperature sensor, an outer heat exchanger, a fan, a high-pressure sensor, and an exhaust temperature sensor. It uses vapor compression refrigeration to generate coolant, which is supplied to the energy storage battery cooling system to take away heat and maintain a reasonable temperature environment required for the battery to work.

[0003] Due to the heat dissipation requirements of energy storage batteries, liquid cooling units generally operate for cooling throughout the year; in low temperature seasons, there are natural cold sources outdoors, but in order to ensure the reliability of the compressor, current liquid cooling units still control the compressor exhaust pressure to be maintained at a higher value during low temperature seasons, which makes the compressor have a large pressure ratio, high power consumption, low energy efficiency, and increased operating costs; the traditional solution controls the fan speed according to the exhaust pressure. In order to ensure the reliability of the compressor operation, the exhaust pressure is always maintained at a high value. In low temperature environments, the exhaust pressure is increased by reducing the fan speed or turning it off, which makes the compressor have a large pressure ratio, high power consumption, and low energy efficiency.

[0130] Based on the second operating pressure difference ratio and the optimal parameter relationship, the fine-tuning data is verified and corrected to determine whether the parameter relationship between the control parameter adjusted according to the fine-tuning data and the working parameter of the operating pressure ratio is within a preset range from the optimal parameter relationship;

[0131] If yes, fine-tune the control parameter to be adjusted according to the fine-tuning data;

[0132] Otherwise, the fine-tuning data is corrected based on the second operating pressure difference ratio.

[0133] In this embodiment, the operating pressure ratio-parameter curve diagram is a relationship diagram among the operating pressure ratio, the working parameters and the control parameters.

[0134] In this embodiment, the larger the first operating pressure difference ratio is, the smaller the corresponding parameter adjustment range is.

[0135] In this embodiment, the greater the difference between the operating parameter of the operating pressure ratio and the operating parameter in the worst parameter relationship, the greater the corresponding parameter adjustment weight.

[0136] In this embodiment, the fine-tuning data of the control parameters to be adjusted are the adjustment of the opening of the electronic expansion valve 7 and the adjustment of the rotation speed of the fan 10 .

[0137] In this embodiment, the way of correcting the fine-tuning data based on the second operating pressure difference ratio is opposite to the way of adjusting based on the first operating pressure difference ratio.

[0138] The beneficial effect of the above design scheme is: by obtaining the highest operating pressure ratio and its corresponding first parameter, as well as the lowest operating pressure ratio and its corresponding second parameter from the operating pressure ratio-parameter curve diagram, determining the optimal parameter relationship between the first working parameter and the first control parameter based on the first parameter, and determining the worst parameter relationship between the second working parameter and the second control parameter based on the second parameter, determining the first operating pressure ratio difference and the second operating pressure ratio difference between the operating pressure ratio and the highest operating pressure and the lowest operating pressure ratio respectively, analyzing the operating pressure ratio to be adjusted according to the first operating pressure ratio difference and the second operating pressure ratio difference, the optimal parameter relationship and the worst parameter relationship, determining the adjustment parameters, ensuring that the real-time operating pressure ratio is always guaranteed to be within the preset range, greatly reducing the power consumption of the compressor, and improving the operating energy efficiency.
