[0020] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, a photovoltaic direct-driven air source injection-compression compound cycle heat pump cogeneration system includes a refrigerant system and a hot water system.

[0022] The refrigerant system is mainly composed of a compressor 1, a one-way valve 2, a hot water heat exchanger 3, a two-phase ejector 4, a gas-liquid separator 5, an electronic expansion valve 6, an intercooler 7, a finned heat exchanger 8 and a refrigerant pipeline;

[0023] The hot water system is mainly composed of a hot water heat exchanger 3 and a water pump 9 connected via a water pipeline;

[0024] The power generation / supply system mainly consists of a photovoltaic array 10, a DC converter 11, and an AC / DC inverter 12 connected via a circuit.

[0025] This embodiment provides a photovoltaic direct-driven air source injection-compression compound cycle heat pump cogeneration system, which can achieve cogeneration and self-sufficiency in electricity.

[0026] like Figure 1As shown, the compressor 1, the electronic expansion valve 6, and the water pump 9 are turned on, the finned heat exchanger 8 is an evaporator, and the hot water heat exchanger 3 is a condenser. The working principle is as follows: the low-temperature and low-pressure gaseous refrigerant is compressed by the compressor 1 into a high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant, enters the hot water heat exchanger 3 through the one-way valve 2 to release heat into the hot water system, and the high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant is then condensed into a medium-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant, and then enters the two-phase ejector 4 to eject the low-pressure gas and become a medium-pressure gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant, and then is separated into a saturated gaseous refrigerant and a saturated liquid refrigerant by the gas-liquid separator 5. Refrigerant, among which, the saturated gaseous refrigerant merges with the superheated gaseous refrigerant at the outlet of the finned heat exchanger 8 and returns to the compressor 1, and the saturated liquid refrigerant is divided into two paths: one path is throttled and depressurized by the electronic expansion valve 6 to become a gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant, and then absorbs heat through the intermediate cooler 7 to become a superheated refrigerant and enter the two-phase ejector 4 to be ejected; the other path is cooled to a supercooled refrigerant after passing through the intermediate cooler 7, enters the finned heat exchanger to absorb solar energy and air energy to boil into a superheated gaseous refrigerant, and then merges with the saturated gaseous refrigerant separated by the gas-liquid separator 5 and returns to the compressor 1. Driven by the water pump 9, the hot water enters the hot water heat exchanger 3 to absorb heat, and is continuously heated in this cycle. In addition, the photovoltaic array 10 converts solar energy into direct current electricity, and converts it into direct current of a specific voltage for the system through the direct current converter 11. If the power generated by the photovoltaic array 10 is greater than the power consumption of the system, the surplus power is connected to the grid through the AC-DC inverter 12; if the power generated by the photovoltaic array 10 is less than the power consumption of the system, the grid is converted into direct current of a specific voltage for the system through the AC-DC inverter 12.

[0027] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
