[0002] Fluorine pump air conditioner is an air conditioning system that uses Freon as the working medium.

Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of this application, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0031] In the first aspect, the present application provides a fluorine pump air conditioner, referring to Figure 1 The fluorine pump air conditioner includes a first circulation component and a heat exchanger 4. The first circulation component includes a fluorine pump 1, a liquid storage tank 3, a regenerator 2 and an evaporator 5. The regenerator 2 has a first heat regeneration channel and a second heat regeneration channel that can exchange heat with each other. An input pipeline 11 is connected between the output end of the fluorine pump 1 and the input end of the evaporator 5. The output end of the evaporator 5 is connected to an output pipeline 51, and the output pipeline 51 is connected to the input end of the first heat regeneration channel. The heat exchanger 4 has a first heat exchange channel, the output end of the first heat regeneration channel is connected to the input end of the first heat exchange channel, the output end of the first heat exchange channel is connected to the input end of the liquid storage tank 3, the output end of the liquid storage tank 3 is connected to the input end of the fluorine pump 1, a bypass pipeline 12 is connected between the output end of the fluorine pump 1 and the input end of the second heat regeneration channel, the second output end of the second heat regeneration channel is connected to the input pipeline 11, and a bypass control valve 121 is connected to the bypass pipeline 12. Among them, the first heat exchange medium can be Freon.

[0032] Specifically, the fluorine pump 1 is used to suck the first heat exchange medium from its input end, and then output the first heat exchange medium from its output end at a certain pressure, so that the first heat exchange medium can overcome the system resistance and circulate between the components. The liquid storage tank 3 is used to store the first heat exchange medium in a low-temperature state. The output end of the liquid storage tank 3 and the input end of the fluorine pump 1 can be connected by pipe fittings. The fluorine pump 1 can extract a corresponding amount of the first heat exchange medium from the liquid storage tank 3 according to the pressure requirement. The output end of the fluorine pump 1 is connected to the input end of the evaporator 5 by pipe fittings, so that the fluorine pump 1 can deliver the first heat exchange medium into the evaporator 5 to dissipate heat and cool the room.

[0033] The input pipeline 11, the output pipeline 51 and the bypass pipeline 12 are all fluid conveying components connected by one or more conveying pipelines. Among them, the output end of the fluorine pump 1 can be connected to a three-way joint, and the same side of the input pipeline 11 and the bypass pipeline 12 is connected in parallel to the output end of the fluorine pump 1 through the three-way joint. The bypass control valve 121 can be connected between the two conveying pipelines in the bypass pipeline 12 to control the on and off of the bypass pipeline 12.

[0034] The regenerator 2 has a first heat regeneration channel for the first heat exchange medium that has absorbed heat and heated up, and a second heat regeneration channel for the first heat exchange medium in a low-temperature state. The second heat regeneration channel can be spirally wrapped around the circumference of the first heat regeneration channel to increase the contact area between the first heat regeneration channel and the second heat regeneration channel, so that the high-temperature first heat exchange medium and the low-temperature heat exchange medium can exchange heat with each other.

[0035] The evaporator 5 is used to be arranged indoors, and lowers the temperature of the indoor environment by absorbing indoor heat. The output end of the evaporator 5 is connected to the input end of the first heat recovery channel through the output pipeline 51, so that the first heat exchange medium output from the evaporator 5 can flow into the first heat recovery channel of the regenerator 2. The side of the bypass pipeline 12 facing away from the fluorine pump 1 is connected to the input end of the second heat recovery channel. When the bypass control valve 121 is in an open state, the first heat exchange medium can flow into the second heat recovery channel of the regenerator 2 through the bypass pipeline 12. The output end of the second heat recovery channel can be connected to the input pipeline 11 by a pipe fitting. For example, a three-way joint is provided on the side of the input pipeline 11 close to the evaporator 5, and the output end of the second heat recovery channel is connected to the three-way joint by a pipe fitting, so that the first heat exchange medium can be merged into the first input pipeline 11 from the output end of the second heat recovery channel, and transported to the evaporator 5 by the input pipeline 11.

[0036] The heat exchanger 4 is used to transfer and exchange heat. The heat exchanger 4 has a first heat exchange channel for the first heat exchange medium in a high temperature state to flow. The input end of the first heat exchange channel is connected to the output end of the second heat return channel by a pipe fitting, so that the first heat exchange medium can flow into the heat exchanger 4 from the output end of the second heat return channel. The output end of the first heat exchange channel is connected to the input end of the liquid storage tank 3 by a pipe fitting, so that the first heat exchange medium can flow into the liquid storage tank 3 from the output end of the first heat exchange channel.

[0037] During normal operation, the bypass control valve 121 is in a closed state. The first heat exchange medium in the liquid storage tank 3 is driven by the fluorine pump 1 and is transported to the evaporator 5 through the input pipe 11. The evaporator 5 exchanges heat with the indoor environment to achieve the purpose of heat dissipation and cooling. The first heat exchange medium, which has been heated by heat exchange, enters the heat exchanger 4 through the output pipe 51 and the first heat regeneration channel of the regenerator 2. It exchanges heat with other heat exchange mediums in the heat exchanger 4, and the first heat exchange medium is cooled by the heat exchanger 4. The first heat exchange medium, which has been cooled in the heat exchanger 4, flows back into the liquid storage tank 3 for storage, thereby realizing the circulation of the first heat exchange medium between the liquid storage tank 3, the fluorine pump 1, the evaporator 5, and the heat exchanger 4.

[0038] When the pre-pump subcooling value is low, the bypass control valve 121 can be opened to connect the bypass pipeline 12 with the regenerator 2, and part of the first heat exchange medium output from the fluorine pump 1 will flow into the second heat regeneration channel of the regenerator 2 through the bypass pipeline 12, so that the first heat exchange medium in a low temperature state exchanges heat with the first heat exchange medium in the first heat regeneration channel after being heated, so as to pre-cool the first heat exchange medium before entering the heat exchanger 4, thereby improving the cooling effect of the heat exchanger 4 on the first heat exchange medium, and further improving the pre-pump subcooling value of the first heat exchange medium before the fluorine pump 1. The first heat exchange medium output from the output end of the second heat regeneration channel will flow into the input pipeline 11 and enter the evaporator 5 to participate in the heat dissipation and cooling work.

[0039] By setting up the regenerator 2, when the supercooling value before the pump is low, part of the low-temperature first heat exchange medium is input into the second heat regeneration channel of the regenerator 2, and heat is exchanged with the first heat exchange medium in a high-temperature state output from the evaporator 5, so as to increase the supercooling value before the pump. When the load on one side of the evaporator 5 suddenly increases, the supercooling value before the pump can be kept high, so that the first heat exchange medium is not easy to produce flash gas and cause cavitation of the fluorine pump. In addition, by pre-cooling the first heat exchange medium, the temperature of the first heat exchange medium at the inlet of the evaporator is lower, thereby making the evaporation temperature of the evaporator lower, thereby improving the heat exchange effect of the evaporator, improving the stability of indoor temperature control, and avoiding shutdown problems.

[0040] In some embodiments, the bypass control valve 121 can be a solenoid valve, and the fluorine pump air conditioner also includes a controller, which can be a host computer. The solenoid valve is connected to the host computer to transmit communication signals. When the supercooling value before the pump is lower than a preset value, the controller controls the bypass control valve 121 to open automatically, and when the supercooling value before the pump is higher than a preset value, the controller controls the bypass control valve 121 to close automatically.

[0041] In some embodiments, the first circulation component also includes a pressure sensor 13 and a temperature sensor 14, and the pressure sensor 13 and the temperature sensor 14 are both arranged upstream of the fluorine pump 1. Specifically, the pressure sensor 13 and the temperature sensor 14 can be arranged between the fluorine pump 1 and the liquid storage tank 3, the pressure sensor 13 is used to obtain the pre-pump pressure value of the fluorine pump 1, and the temperature sensor 14 is used to obtain the pre-pump temperature value of the fluorine pump 1, so as to calculate the pre-pump supercooling value of the fluorine pump 1 by using the pre-pump pressure value and the pre-pump temperature value, wherein the pre-pump supercooling value can be calculated according to the calculation method of the prior art. In addition, the pressure sensor 13 and the temperature sensor can also be connected to the controller of the fluorine pump air conditioner, and after obtaining the pre-pump pressure value and the pre-pump temperature value by the controller, the pre-pump supercooling value is generated, and the bypass control valve is controlled according to the size of the pre-pump supercooling value.

[0042] In some embodiments, the first circulation component further includes a one-way valve 21, which is connected between the output end of the second heat regeneration channel and the output pipeline 51, and is used to limit the first heat exchange medium from the output pipeline 51 to flow to the regenerator 2. The first heat exchange medium in the output pipeline 51 is prevented from flowing back from the output end of the second heat regeneration channel to the bypass pipeline 12 in the reverse direction, so as to ensure that the first heat exchange medium flows stably into the evaporator 5.

[0043] In some embodiments, the fluorine pump air conditioner further includes a second circulation component, which includes: a compressor 6, a first condenser 8 and a throttling device, the output end of the compressor 6 is connected to the input end of the first condenser 8, the output end of the first condenser 8 is connected to the input end of the throttling device, the output end of the throttling device is connected to the input end of the second heat exchange channel, and the output end of the second heat exchange channel is connected to the input end of the compressor 6, so that the second heat exchange medium circulates between the compressor 6, the first condenser 8, the throttling device and the heat exchanger 4. The second heat exchange medium can also be Freon.

[0044] Specifically, the heat exchanger 4 also has a second heat exchange channel for the flow of the second heat exchange medium, wherein the flow directions of the first heat exchange medium and the second heat exchange medium in the heat exchange device can be opposite to increase the heat exchange efficiency of the first heat exchange medium and the second heat exchange medium. For example, the first input end and the second output end are located on the lower side of the heat exchange device, and the first output end and the second input end are located on the upper side of the heat exchange device.

[0045] The compressor 6 is used to drive the second heat exchange medium to flow under a certain pressure, and the input end of the compressor 6 is connected to the output end of the second heat exchange channel of the heat exchanger through a pipe. The first condenser 8 is a heat exchange device that can condense steam by lowering the steam temperature. The output end of the compressor 6 is connected to the input end of the first condenser 8 through a pipe, so that the second heat exchange medium can enter the first condenser 8 under the transportation of the compressor 6, and the first condenser 8 is used to condense and cool the first heat exchange medium.

[0046] The throttling device is used to adjust the pressure of the second heat exchange medium, and to cool the second heat exchange medium by pressurizing the second heat exchange medium. Exemplarily, the throttling device is an expansion valve 7, and the input end of the expansion valve 7 is connected to the output end of the first condenser 8 by a pipe fitting, so that the second heat exchange medium can flow into the expansion valve 7. The output end of the expansion valve 7 is connected to the input end of the second heat exchange channel of the heat exchanger by a pipe fitting, so that the second heat exchange medium enters the second heat exchange channel of the heat exchanger 4 again after being pressurized and cooled by the expansion valve 7.

[0047] When the compressor 6 is working, the second heat exchange medium is driven to circulate between the first condenser 8, the expansion valve 7 and the heat exchanger 4. After cooling down through the first condenser 8 and the expansion valve 7, the second heat exchange medium in a low temperature state will exchange heat with the first heat exchange medium in a high temperature state in the heat exchanger 4 to achieve heat dissipation and cooling of the first heat exchange medium. After absorbing heat and heating up, the second heat exchange medium flows out from the output end of the second heat exchange channel, and is transported by the compressor 6 again to enter the first condenser 8. The first condenser 8 is used to preliminarily cool down the second heat exchange medium in a high temperature state. When the second heat exchange medium after the preliminarily cooling down passes through the expansion valve 7 again, the second heat exchange medium is pressurized and cooled down to a low temperature state through the expansion valve 7.

[0048] In some embodiments, the first circulation component further includes a second condenser 9, which is arranged side by side with the first condenser 8 and is located upstream of the first condenser 8. In this way, the first condenser 8 and the second condenser 9 can share a fan device, which is more compact and has a lower cost. A first branch pipeline 52 is connected between the output pipeline 51 and the input end of the second condenser 9, and a first control valve 521 is provided on the first branch pipeline 52. The output end of the second condenser 9 is connected to the input end of the first heat recovery channel; a second branch pipeline 53 is connected between the output pipeline 51 and the input end of the heat regenerator 2, and a second control valve 531 is provided on the second branch pipeline 53.

[0049] Specifically, the first branch pipeline 52 and the second branch pipeline 53 are both fluid conveying components formed by connecting a plurality of conveying pipelines. A three-way joint may be provided on the side of the output pipeline 51 facing away from the evaporator 5. The first branch pipeline 52 and the second branch pipeline 53 are arranged in parallel with the output pipeline 51 through the three-way joint. The first branch pipeline 52 is connected between the output pipeline 51 and the evaporator 5. When the first control valve 521 is opened, the first heat exchange medium can flow into the second condenser 9 through the first branch pipeline 52. And the output end of the second condenser 9 can be connected to the second branch pipeline 53 through a pipe fitting so that it can be connected to the input end of the first heat regeneration channel, and flow into the first heat regeneration channel of the regenerator 2 after passing through the second condenser 9. The second branch pipeline 53 is connected between the output pipeline 51 and the input end of the first heat regeneration channel. When the second control valve 531 is opened, the first heat exchange medium can flow directly into the regenerator 2 through the second branch pipeline 53. Among them, the second condenser 9 can be a natural cooling condenser.

[0050] When the load on the evaporator 5 side is low, the first control valve 521 can be opened, the second control valve 531 can be closed, and the operation of the compressor 6 can be turned off at the same time, so that the first heat exchange medium after being heated flows into the second condenser 9 after being output from the evaporator 5, and the second condenser 9 is used alone to cool the first heat exchange medium, thereby achieving low power consumption operation. When the load on the evaporator 5 side is high, the first control valve 521 can be closed, the second control valve 531 can be opened, and the operation of the compressor 6 can be turned on at the same time, so that the first heat exchange medium flows directly into the heat exchanger 4 after being output from the evaporator 5, and the heat exchanger 4 is used alone to cool the first heat exchange medium.

[0051] In addition, when the effect of cooling the first heat exchange medium by using the heat exchanger 4 alone is poor, the compressor 6 can be started after opening the first control valve 521 and the second control valve 531, so that the first heat exchange medium passes through the second condenser 9 and the heat exchanger 4 in sequence, and the first heat exchange medium is cooled by the second condenser 9 and the heat exchanger 4. In addition, when the second condenser 9 and the compressor 6 circuit work together, if the subcooling value before the fluorine pump 1 is still low, part of the low-temperature first heat exchange medium can be introduced into the regenerator 2 by opening the bypass control valve 121, and the first heat exchange medium is pre-cooled before entering the heat exchanger 4, so as to increase the subcooling value before the pump and reduce the evaporation temperature of the evaporator 5, so as to meet the requirements of the evaporator 5 under high load operation.

[0052] The opening or closing of the first control valve 521 and the second control valve 531 can be manually controlled by maintenance personnel, or electromagnetic valves can be used and the controller in the fluorine pump air conditioner can be automatically controlled according to the settings of the control program or the instructions of the maintenance personnel.

[0053] In some embodiments, a liquid pipe ball valve 111 is provided on one side of the input pipe 11 close to the evaporator 5. The liquid pipe ball valve 111 is used to adjust the refrigerant flow in the input pipe 11 to ensure that the evaporator 5 can efficiently perform heat exchange. The opening of the liquid pipe ball valve 111 can be manually or automatically adjusted according to the operating state and refrigeration demand of the fluorine pump air conditioner.

[0054] In some embodiments, a tracheal ball valve 511 is provided on one side of the output pipeline 51 close to the evaporator 5. The tracheal ball valve 511 is used to adjust the pressure in the evaporator 5. When the pressure in the evaporator 5 is too high, the tracheal ball valve 511 automatically opens to release part of the gas, thereby reducing the pressure; conversely, when the pressure in the evaporator 5 is too low, the tracheal ball valve 511 automatically closes to maintain the pressure in the evaporator 5 within a reasonable range.

[0055] In a second aspect, the present application provides a control method for a fluorine pump air conditioner, wherein the fluorine pump air conditioner is the fluorine pump air conditioner provided in the first aspect of the embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the control method of the fluorine pump air conditioner includes:

[0056] Step 101, obtaining the pre-pump subcooling value of the fluorine pump 1 in real time;

[0057] Step 102: when the pre-pump subcooling value is less than or equal to the subcooling judgment value, the bypass control valve 121 is opened.

[0058] Specific, combined Figure 1 As shown, the pre-pump subcooling value refers to the difference between the temperature of the condensed water of the first heat exchange medium located upstream of the fluorine pump 1 at a certain pressure and the saturation temperature at the corresponding pressure. The pre-pump subcooling value of the fluorine pump 1 can be calculated by obtaining the pre-pump pressure value and the pre-pump temperature value through the pressure sensor 13 and the temperature sensor 14 disposed upstream of the fluorine pump 1.

[0059] The supercooling judgment value is a control parameter used to judge whether the supercooling value before the pump is within a safe range. The supercooling judgment value can be manually input into the control system of the fluorine pump air conditioner, or can be pre-set in the control system. In practical applications, the setting of the supercooling judgment value needs to consider factors such as the working efficiency, safe operating range and environmental conditions of the fluorine pump 1.

[0060] When the pre-pump subcooling value is lower than the supercooling judgment value, the pre-pump subcooling value of the fluorine pump is low, which makes the first heat exchange medium easy to produce flash gas and cause fluorine pump cavitation. At this time, the bypass control valve 121 can be opened to connect the fluorine pump 1 and the regenerator 2, so that part of the low-temperature first heat exchange medium enters the second regenerator channel of the regenerator 2, and exchanges heat with the high-temperature first heat exchange medium flowing in the first regenerator channel of the regenerator 2. The high-temperature first heat exchange medium is pre-heated before entering the heat exchanger 4, thereby increasing the pre-pump subcooling value. By precooling the first heat exchange medium, the temperature of the first heat exchange medium at the inlet of the evaporator is lower, thereby lowering the evaporation temperature of the evaporator, and improving the heat exchange effect of the evaporator. When the evaporator 5 side is running at high load, the indoor temperature is not easy to fluctuate, maintaining temperature stability, and avoiding shutdown problems caused by fluorine pump cavitation caused by sudden load increase.

[0061] In some embodiments, the control method of the fluorine pump air conditioner also includes step 103, when the pre-pump supercooling value is less than or equal to the supercooling judgment value and the bypass control valve 121 is in an open state, unlocking the operating frequency limit of the compressor 6 and increasing the operating frequency of the compressor 6.

[0062] Specifically, the operating frequency limit of the compressor 6 means setting an upper limit value for the operating frequency of the variable frequency compressor 6 under normal operation. Since the variable frequency compressor 6 can automatically increase the operating frequency as the load increases, locking the upper limit of the frequency of the compressor 6 can prevent the compressor 6 from being damaged by overheating due to long-term high frequency operation under high load.

[0063] After opening the bypass control valve 121, if the subcooling value before the pump is still less than or equal to the subcooling judgment value, the restriction on the operating frequency of the compressor 6 can be temporarily unlocked, allowing the compressor 6 to operate at a higher frequency, thereby increasing the pressure and flow rate of the second heat exchange medium, thereby accelerating the temperature of the first heat exchange medium at the inlet of the heat exchanger 4 and further increasing the subcooling value before the pump.

[0064] It should be noted that when the pre-pump subcooling value is less than or equal to the subcooling determination value, the opening of the bypass control valve 121 and the limitation of the operating frequency of the compressor 6 can be performed step by step. Figure 3 As shown: when the pre-pump supercooling value is less than or equal to the supercooling judgment value, it is determined whether the bypass control valve 121 is open; if the bypass control valve 121 is in a closed state, the bypass control valve 121 is opened; if the bypass control valve 121 is in an open state, it is determined whether to unlock the operating frequency limit of the compressor 6, and when the operating frequency limit of the compressor 6 is not unlocked, after unlocking the operating frequency limit of the compressor 6, the operating frequency of the compressor 6 is increased.

[0065] In addition, if the pre-pump supercooling value is still less than or equal to the supercooling judgment value after unlocking the operating frequency limit of the compressor 6 and increasing the operating frequency of the compressor 6, an alarm action can be executed. For example, an audible and visual alarm signal is sent to the maintenance personnel, and the entire fluorine pump air conditioner is controlled to shut down, so that the maintenance personnel can perform maintenance work in time to avoid malfunction of the fluorine pump air conditioner.

[0066] In some embodiments, the control method of the fluorine pump air conditioner also includes step 104, when the supercooling value before the pump is greater than the supercooling protection stop value, reducing the operating frequency of the compressor 6 and locking the upper limit of the operating frequency of the compressor 6; wherein the supercooling protection stop value is greater than the supercooling judgment value.

[0067] Specifically, the supercooling protection stop value is a control parameter for judging whether the pre-pump supercooling value has recovered to a safe range, which can be manually input into the control system of the fluorine pump air conditioner or pre-set in the control system. When the pre-pump supercooling value is greater than the supercooling protection stop value, it indicates that the pre-pump supercooling has recovered to a normal state. At this time, the operating frequency of the compressor 6 can be reduced, and the upper limit of the operating frequency of the compressor 6 can be re-locked to avoid overheating damage caused by long-term high-frequency operation of the compressor 6, and also reduce the operating energy consumption of the fluorine pump air conditioner.

[0068] Among them, the overcooling protection stop value should be greater than the overcooling judgment value, so that the overcooling degree before the pump can be restored to a higher level before the overcooling protection action is turned off to ensure the stability of the fluorine pump air conditioner's indoor temperature control.

[0069] In some embodiments, the control method of the fluorine pump air conditioner further includes step 105, when the supercooling value before the pump is greater than the supercooling protection stop value, closing the bypass control valve 121.

[0070] When the supercooling value before the pump is greater than the supercooling protection stop value, if the bypass control valve 121 is in the open state, the bypass control valve 121 can be closed to disconnect the connection between the fluorine pump 1 and the regenerator 2, so that the first heat exchange medium can be normally transported from the fluorine pump 1 to the evaporator 5 side.

[0071] It should be noted that when the pre-pump supercooling value is greater than the supercooling protection stop value, closing the bypass control valve 121 and reducing the operating frequency of the compressor 6 can be performed step by step, for example Figure 3 As shown: when the pre-pump supercooling value is greater than the supercooling judgment value, and its pre-pump supercooling value is greater than the supercooling protection stop value, it is determined whether the compressor 6 is unlocked from the operating frequency limit; when the compressor 6 is in the unlocked operating frequency limit, the operating frequency of the compressor 6 is reduced, and the upper limit of the operating frequency of the compressor 6 is locked; when the compressor 6 is not in the unlocked operating frequency limit, it is determined whether the bypass control valve 121 is open, and when the bypass control valve 121 is in the open state, the bypass control valve 121 is closed.

[0072] In summary, by obtaining and updating the pre-pump subcooling value in real time, when the subcooling value is low, the bypass control valve 121 is opened in time or the operating frequency of the compressor 6 is increased to meet the demand when the load on one side of the evaporator 5 suddenly increases, thereby improving the stability of the fluorine pump air conditioner in controlling the indoor temperature. After the subcooling value returns to normal, the bypass control valve 121 is closed in time or the operating frequency of the compressor 6 is reduced to reduce the energy consumption of the fluorine pump air conditioner.

[0073] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
