In the absence of conflict, the features of the following embodiments and implementations can be combined with each other.

[0026] Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the structure of a heat pump system 100 according to an embodiment of the present application is disclosed. Figure 1 As shown, the heat pump system 100 includes a refrigerant circuit 110, a passenger compartment circuit 140, a battery circuit 150 and an electric drive circuit 160. The passenger compartment circuit 140 includes a heater water pump HCWP. The battery circuit 150 includes a battery 151 and a battery water pump BCPF. The electric drive circuit 160 includes an electric drive 161 and an electric drive water pump EDCP.

[0027] The refrigerant circuit 110 includes a first refrigerant circuit 120 and a second refrigerant circuit 130. The first refrigerant circuit 120 includes a compressor 111, a first heat exchanger 112, a first throttle valve BEXV, a second heat exchanger 113, and a second throttle valve AEXV. The exhaust port of the compressor 111 is connected to the first end of the first heat exchanger 112, the second end of the first heat exchanger 112 is connected to one end of the first throttle valve BEXV, the other end of the first throttle valve BEXV is connected to the air intake port of the compressor 111 through the second heat exchanger 113, and the two ends of the second throttle valve AEXV are respectively connected to the air intake port and the exhaust port of the compressor 111. The second refrigerant circuit 130 includes a third throttle valve EEXV and a third heat exchanger 114. One end of the third throttle valve EEXV is connected to the second end of the second heat exchanger 113, and the other end of the third throttle valve EEXV is connected to the air intake port of the compressor 111 through the third heat exchanger 114. The first heat exchanger 112 may be a water-cooled condenser, and the third heat exchanger 114 may be an evaporator.

[0029] The present application provides a low temperature control method for the heat pump system 100 . Figure 2 A flow chart of a low temperature control method for a heat pump system according to an embodiment of the present application is disclosed. Figure 2 As shown, a low temperature control method of a heat pump system according to an embodiment of the present application may include steps S201 to S205.

[0030] In step S201, the vehicle is powered on.

[0031] In step S202, after the vehicle is powered on, the electric drive outlet water temperature Tout of the electric drive circuit is obtained.

[0032] In step S203, when the outlet water temperature Tout of the electric drive is lower than a first predetermined temperature threshold, control is performed to start active heating of the electric drive.

[0033] In step S204 , when a passenger compartment heating request is received, the intake port pressure Pin of the compressor 111 is acquired.

[0034] In step S205, when the suction port pressure Pin is lower than the predetermined pressure threshold, the control enters the compressor pulse start mode. The compressor pulse start mode is that the compressor 111 runs at a predetermined low speed for a first period of time, and then stops and waits for a second period of time to start.

[0035] The low-temperature control method of the heat pump system of the present application can quickly increase the temperature of the refrigerant in the heat pump system, so that the low pressure can be quickly increased to the pressure requirement for continuous operation, thereby entering the normal heat pump mode more quickly and meeting customer heating needs.

[0036] The low temperature control method of the heat pump system of the present application can expand the heat pump operating temperature to -30°C through electric drive active heating and compressor pulse start mode.

[0037] In some embodiments, the low temperature control method of the heat pump system of the present application may further include step S206.

[0038] In step S206 , in the compressor pulse start mode, the first throttle valve BEXV is controlled to start, and the second throttle valve AEXV and the third throttle valve EEXV are controlled to close.

[0039] Optionally, in order to reduce the impact and pressure fluctuation during startup, the first throttle valve BEXV may be controlled to soft-start, and the fluid flow rate may be gradually increased by gradually adjusting the opening of the first throttle valve BEXV.

[0040] Combine the following Figure 3 A specific process of the low temperature control method of the heat pump system of the present application is introduced in detail.

[0041] Figure 3 A specific flow chart of the low temperature control method of the heat pump system of the present application is disclosed. Figure 3 As shown, in step S301, the vehicle is powered on. In step S302, after the vehicle is powered on, the electric drive outlet water temperature Tout is determined. In step S303, when the electric drive outlet water temperature Tout is lower than the first predetermined temperature threshold, for example: Tout≤-15°C, the electric drive active heating is controlled to be started. In step S304, when the electric drive outlet water temperature Tout is higher than the second predetermined temperature threshold, for example: Tout≥0°C, the electric drive active heating is controlled to be turned off. At the same time, in step S305, when the electric drive outlet water temperature Tout is not lower than the third predetermined temperature threshold, for example: Tout≥-18°C, the determination of entering the heat pump condition can be controlled.

[0042] In step S306, there is a request for heating in the passenger compartment. When there is a request for heating in the passenger compartment, the process proceeds to step S307. In step S307, the compressor low pressure is determined, that is, the suction port pressure Pin of the compressor 111 is determined. At an ambient temperature of -30°C, the starting low pressure of the suction port of the compressor 111 is about 0.85 bar. When the suction port pressure Pin of the compressor 111 is lower than the predetermined pressure threshold, for example: 0.85 bar<Pin<0.9 bar, the process proceeds to step S308. In step S308, it is determined whether it is the first start. If it is the first start, the process directly proceeds to step S309. In step S309, the compressor pulse start mode is entered, that is, the compressor 111 is controlled to run at a predetermined low speed for a first time, and then stop and wait for a second time to start, for example: the compressor 111 is controlled to run at 850 rpm (revolutions / minute) for 5s (seconds), then stop, wait for 5s and then start again.

[0043] In order to better protect the compressor 111, the number of pulse starts of the compressor 111 can be limited. In some embodiments, the low temperature control method of the heat pump system of the present application can also include: in the compressor pulse start mode, the compressor 111 is controlled to run at a predetermined low speed for a first predetermined time, and then stopped to wait for a second predetermined time for a maximum of N predetermined times, for example, N = 5.

[0044] In some embodiments, the low temperature control method of the heat pump system of the present application may also include: after the compressor 111 pulse starts for a predetermined number of times N, when the suction port pressure Pin of the compressor 111 is still lower than the predetermined pressure threshold, the state of the suction port pressure Pin lower than the predetermined pressure threshold is maintained for more than the third predetermined time, and the compressor pulse start mode in step S309 can be controlled. Therefore, in step S308, if it is not the first start, it is necessary to further determine whether the low pressure is too low for more than the third predetermined time, and the third predetermined time can be, for example, 1h (hour). That is to say, after the compressor pulse start is repeated for example 5 times, when the suction port pressure Pin of the compressor 111 is still too low (lower than the predetermined pressure threshold, for example <0.9bar), it is necessary to meet the low pressure too low for more than 1h before the process can enter the compressor pulse start mode in step S309. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the compressor 111 from being damaged by the compressor 111 due to the excessively frequent start.

[0045] When the result of the judgment in step S308 is that the condition of "first start, or low pressure is maintained for more than 1 hour" is not satisfied, the process proceeds to step S311. In step S311, the compressor 111 is controlled to stop.

[0046] Figure 4The heat pump system of one embodiment of the present application is disclosed in the structural schematic diagram of the electric drive active heating and compressor pulse start mode. Figure 4 As shown, when the electric drive outlet water temperature Tout is too low, the electric drive can be actively heated to increase the electric drive outlet water temperature Tout. In the compressor pulse start mode, the first throttle valve BEXV is controlled to soft start, the second throttle valve AEXV and the third throttle valve EEXV are closed, and the compressor 111 is started at a low speed.

[0047] In some embodiments, the low-temperature control method of the heat pump system of the present application may also include: during the operation of the compressor pulse start mode, continuously obtaining the suction port pressure Pin of the compressor 111; when the suction port pressure Pin is not lower than a predetermined pressure threshold, controlling the determination of entering the heat pump condition; when the heat pump condition is met, controlling entering the heat pump mode.

[0048] Return to reference Figure 3 As shown, in step S307, the low pressure of the compressor 111 is continuously judged during the operation of the compressor pulse start mode. When the suction port pressure Pin of the compressor 111 is not lower than the predetermined pressure threshold, for example: Pin≥0.9bar, the step S305 can be entered to determine the heat pump condition. When the suction port pressure Pin of the compressor 111 is in the range of 0.9bar-1.1bar, that is, 0.9bar≤Pin<1.1bar, and the operation is less than the fourth predetermined time, or the suction port pressure Pin is not lower than 1.1bar, that is, Pin≥1.1bar, it is determined that the heat pump condition is met, and the process enters step S310. In step S310, the control enters the heat pump mode.

[0049] Figure 5 The structure diagram of a heat pump system in heat pump mode according to an embodiment of the present application is disclosed. Figure 5 As shown, in the heat pump mode, the first throttle valve BEXV and the second throttle valve AEXV are controlled to soft start, the compressor 111 is controlled to soft start, and the opening or closing of the third throttle valve EEXV is controlled based on the evaporator anti-liquid accumulation logic.

[0050] For the refrigerant circuit 110: the low-temperature and low-pressure gaseous refrigerant becomes a high-pressure and high-temperature gaseous refrigerant after the compressor 111 does work, and after the first heat exchanger 112 as a condenser releases heat, the heat is exchanged to the passenger compartment circuit 140, and becomes a high-pressure and high-temperature liquid refrigerant, and then after throttling by the first throttle valve BEXV, it becomes a low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant, and then passes through the second heat exchanger 113 as a cooler to absorb heat, absorb the heat of the battery circuit 150, and become a low-temperature and low-pressure gaseous refrigerant, and enter the compressor 111 for the next cycle. For the passenger compartment circuit 140: the high-temperature hot water flowing through the first heat exchanger 112 as a condenser flows through the three-way valve HCTV, and then passes through the air conditioning box heat exchanger Hex for heat exchange, and releases heat to the passenger compartment. The low-temperature water that releases heat passes through the warm air water pump HCWP, and then passes through the first heat exchanger 112 as a condenser again for the next cycle. For the electric drive circuit 160: the low-temperature cold water flowing through the second heat exchanger 113 as a cooler passes through the nine-way valve 170, then passes through the electric drive to absorb heat, then passes through the nine-way valve 170, and finally flows back to the second heat exchanger 113 as a cooler to release heat. Thus, the waste heat of the electric drive is transferred to the refrigerant circuit 110, and then transferred to the passenger compartment circuit 140 through the refrigerant circuit 110, so that the passenger compartment can be supplemented with heat.

[0051] In some embodiments, the low temperature control method of the heat pump system of the present application may also include: when the suction port pressure Pin is in the range of 0.9bar-1.1bar, that is, 0.9bar≤Pin<1.1bar and the operation exceeds the fifth predetermined time, then entering step S311, controlling the compressor 111 to stop.

[0052] When the compressor 111 is stopped, if there is a heating request for the passenger compartment, the above logic judgment is repeated.

[0053] The low-temperature control method of the heat pump system of the present application cleverly utilizes the characteristic of the compressor 111 that can operate briefly at extremely low pressure through electric drive active heating and compressor pulse start mode, allowing the refrigerant to flow intermittently, thereby bringing the heat in the second heat exchanger serving as a cooler more fully into the heat pump system.

[0054] The low-temperature control method of the heat pump system of the present application uses electric drive active heating and compressor pulse start mode, without the need for an additional PTC heater. The electric drive active heating is started to increase the refrigerant temperature on the second heat exchanger side, and the heat pump system temperature is increased through the compressor pulse start mode. During the pulse start mode, as long as the low pressure reaches the low pressure requirement for continuous operation, the normal heat pump mode is immediately entered, so that the R134a heat pump system can be started and continuously and stably operated at an ambient temperature of -30°C or above.

[0055] The present application also provides a computer-readable storage medium having a computer program stored thereon. When the computer program is executed by a processor, the steps of the low-temperature control method of the heat pump system described above are implemented.

[0056] The present application also provides a low temperature control system 600 of a heat pump system. Figure 6 A schematic block diagram of a low temperature control system 600 of a heat pump system according to an embodiment of the present application is disclosed. Figure 6 As shown, a low temperature control system 600 of a heat pump system of an embodiment of the present application includes a processor 601, an internal bus 602, a network interface 603, a memory 604, and a non-volatile memory 605, and may also include hardware required for other services. The processor 601 can read the corresponding computer program from the non-volatile memory 605 into the memory 604 and then run it to implement the steps of the low temperature control method of the heat pump system as described above. Of course, in addition to the software implementation, the present application does not exclude other implementation methods, such as logic devices or a combination of software and hardware, etc., that is to say, the execution subject of the following processing flow is not limited to each logic unit, but can also be hardware or logic components.
