Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of air conditioning, and in particular to a fresh air air conditioning with multi-stage heat and moisture exchange and a control method thereof. Background Art
[0002] As people's living standards continue to improve, their demand for indoor air comfort is also increasing. Currently, traditional air conditioners primarily focus on temperature regulation and lack effective humidity control. While some high-end air conditioners have some dehumidification capabilities, these are typically simple dehumidification functions in cooling mode, unable to achieve precise isothermal dehumidification and ineffective in low-temperature, high-humidity environments. Most air conditioners are also unable to humidify, requiring the use of additional humidification equipment, failing to provide users with a one-stop temperature and humidity control solution.
[0003] As for some simple dehumidification or humidification devices available on the market, for example, dehumidifiers use the principle of refrigeration to condense water vapor in the air into water and discharge it outdoors, thereby reducing indoor humidity; humidifiers add water vapor to the air through spraying or other methods to increase humidity. These devices are usually independent of the air conditioning system and need to be purchased and placed separately. Not only do they take up space, but they also require manual intervention during use, such as regular water addition and cleaning, making them inconvenient to use. In addition, these devices often have difficulty in accurately controlling temperature while adjusting humidity, and cannot achieve coordinated regulation of indoor temperature and humidity, resulting in less than ideal indoor environmental comfort.
[0004] Furthermore, the demands for indoor temperature and humidity vary significantly across seasons. While existing air conditioners can reduce humidity to a certain extent during summer cooling, this often results in excessively low indoor temperatures, making people uncomfortable. During winter heating, however, they fail to effectively address the issue of dry indoor air and may even exacerbate the dryness, failing to meet users' seasonal demands for an ideal indoor environment. If additional existing dehumidification or humidification equipment is purchased for use, since they operate independently of the air conditioner, additional energy consumption is required for each operation. For example, in the summer, when simultaneous cooling and dehumidification are required, operating the air conditioner and dehumidifier separately not only increases energy consumption but can also lead to poor indoor temperature and humidity regulation due to the lack of coordination between the devices, further wasting energy. Summary of the Invention

[0038] In order to facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, the present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments and drawings. The contents mentioned in the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0039] It should be noted in advance that, in the present invention, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, terms such as "installed," "connected," "connected," and "fixed" should be understood broadly. For example, they may refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in the present invention based on the specific circumstances. Furthermore, in the present invention, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, a first feature "above" or "below" a second feature may include direct contact between the first and second features, or may include contact between the first and second features not directly but through another feature between them.
[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, a fresh air air conditioner with multi-stage heat and moisture exchange comprises:
[0041] The outdoor fresh air inlet channel 1 is provided with an air inlet fan 3 at the end thereof for delivering outdoor fresh air into the room.
[0042] The indoor return air exhaust duct 2 is provided with an exhaust fan 4 at its end for sending the indoor return air outdoors.
[0043] The heat and moisture exchange core 5 connects the outdoor fresh air inlet channel 1 and the indoor return air exhaust channel 2 to facilitate heat and moisture exchange between the outdoor fresh air and the indoor return air.
[0044] The temperature and humidity adjustment module includes a first heat exchanger 6 and a second heat exchanger 7 arranged in the outdoor fresh air inlet channel 1, which are used to perform heat exchange on the outdoor fresh air after passing through the heat and moisture exchange core 5, and also includes a third heat exchanger 8 arranged in the indoor return air exhaust channel 2, which is used to perform heat exchange on the indoor return air after passing through the heat and moisture exchange core 5.
[0045] The humidification module includes a first humidifier arranged in the outdoor fresh air inlet channel 1, which is used to humidify the first heat exchanger 6 and the second heat exchanger 7 as needed, and also includes a second humidifier arranged in the indoor return air exhaust channel 2, which is used to humidify the third heat exchanger 8 as needed.
[0046] Compressor 9 is used to deliver heat exchange medium to first heat exchanger 6, second heat exchanger 7, and third heat exchanger 8. Sensors can also be used to monitor indoor temperature and humidity, and automatically control the operating frequency of the compressor and fan based on preset target parameters to enhance the intelligent control effect of the equipment.
[0047] In the above structure, the compressor 9 is connected to the first heat exchanger 6 or the third heat exchanger 8 through a four-way reversing valve 10, and the compressor 9 is connected to the second heat exchanger 7 through a three-way reversing valve 11. A first expansion valve 12 is connected between the first heat exchanger 6 and the third heat exchanger 8, and a second expansion valve 13 is connected between the second heat exchanger 7 and the third heat exchanger 8.
[0048] In this embodiment, the first humidifier and the second humidifier each include a set of humidifying mechanisms. Taking the humidifying mechanism of the first humidifier as an example, Figure 2 As shown, the humidification mechanism includes a water receiving pan 14 disposed below the corresponding heat exchanger and a spray nozzle 15 disposed above. The spray nozzle 15 is connected to the water receiving pan 14 via a water suction pipe 16. The water suction pipe 16 is equipped with a Bernoulli valve 17. An air pump 18 is provided at one end of the Bernoulli valve 17. Activating the air pump 18 forces air through the Bernoulli valve 17, generating negative pressure. This causes the water suction pipe 16 to draw water from the water receiving pan 14 into the Bernoulli valve 17, where it mixes with the air before being sprayed out through the spray nozzle 15. By utilizing the principle of negative pressure generated by the Bernoulli valve 17 and the power provided by the air pump 18 to draw water in, mix it with the air, and spray it out, this method consumes less energy than traditional humidification methods, such as electrode humidification, reducing energy consumption during air conditioning operation and achieving excellent energy-saving effects. Furthermore, the water in the water suction pipe 16 is pre-mixed with the air, which makes the water mist sprayed from the spray nozzle 15 more dispersed, thereby improving heat transfer performance.
[0049] In both isothermal dehumidification and dehumidification cooling modes, a humidifier can be used to provide auxiliary cooling for the medium in the condenser, thereby reducing compressor pressure and improving compressor performance and energy efficiency. This is because water has a large specific heat capacity and can absorb a large amount of heat. Spraying water mist on the condenser surface absorbs some of the heat released during the refrigerant condensation process and evaporates, thereby enhancing the condenser's heat dissipation. This improved condenser heat dissipation lowers the temperature of the condensed refrigerant liquid, and the condensing pressure also decreases accordingly. According to the principles of the refrigeration cycle, the compressor's discharge pressure is equal to the condensing pressure. When the condensing pressure decreases, the compressor's discharge pressure also decreases. Lowering the compressor's discharge pressure also reduces the compressor's compression ratio. The compression ratio is the ratio of the compressor's discharge pressure to the suction pressure. A lower compression ratio means less work is required to compress the refrigerant vapor. This improves compressor performance, as the compressor can compress more refrigerant vapor with the same power consumption. Furthermore, since compressor power consumption is reduced and cooling capacity increases due to the increased refrigerant circulation volume, energy efficiency is improved.
[0050] Furthermore, the water tray 14 is connected to an automatic water replenishment valve 19, which is equipped with a normally closed two-way solenoid valve 24 for receiving clean water from an external source to replenish the water tray 14. The bottom of the water tray 14 is equipped with a normally open electric drain valve 20 and an overflow port 21 at the top. The inner wall of the water tray 14 is also covered with a layer of antibacterial copper mesh.
[0051] In this embodiment, the first heat exchanger 6 , the second heat exchanger 7 and the third heat exchanger 8 are all arranged in an inclined shape along the height direction to increase the windward surface of the heat exchange and the contact area with the water mist sprayed by the spray nozzle 15 .
[0052] To ensure the quality of the fresh air introduced and the lifespan of the equipment, cotton filters 22 are installed at the entrance of both the outdoor fresh air inlet duct 1 and the entrance of the indoor return air exhaust duct 2. Cotton filters 22 can initially filter the air entering the air conditioning system, intercepting impurities such as dust, pollen, and hair in the air, preventing these impurities from entering the air conditioner, avoiding contamination and blockage of subsequent heat and moisture exchange, humidification, and other components, thereby ensuring the normal operation and service life of the air conditioning system. By filtering out harmful impurities in the air, the fresh air entering the room and the recycled return air are cleaner, helping to improve indoor air quality and provide users with a healthier and more comfortable living and working environment. This is of great significance for people with allergies or in places with high air quality requirements.
[0053] When installing the multi-stage heat and moisture exchange fresh air air conditioner, a housing 23 can be provided, with the outdoor fresh air inlet duct 1 and the indoor return air exhaust duct 2 independently arranged within the housing 23. The inlet of the outdoor fresh air inlet duct 1 is located at the rear of the right end of the housing 23, and the outlet of the outdoor fresh air inlet duct 1 is located at the front of the left end of the housing 23. The inlet of the indoor return air exhaust duct 2 is located at the front of the right end of the housing 23, and the outlet of the indoor return air exhaust duct 2 is located at the rear of the left end of the housing 23. The front of the housing 23 is installed closer to the indoor side, and the rear is installed closer to the outdoor side. This makes the overall structure of the air conditioner more compact, capable of completing the processing of fresh air and return air within a limited space, improving space utilization, facilitating installation in various locations, and is particularly suitable for indoor environments with limited space. It also facilitates the installation and subsequent maintenance of the air conditioner, as maintenance personnel can inspect and maintain the indoor components of the air conditioner from the indoor side.
[0054] In addition, the multi-stage heat and moisture exchange fresh air air conditioner provided in this embodiment can be set in parallel in multiple rooms or areas indoors to form a wet fresh air air conditioner multi-connected system, such as Figure 6As shown, the system specifically includes multiple boxes 23 and a compressor 9. The inlet of the outdoor fresh air inlet channel 1 and the outlet of the indoor return air exhaust channel 2 of each box 23 are connected to the outdoor atmosphere through independent pipelines. The heat exchanger inside each box 23 is connected to the compressor 9 in parallel. This means that the entire system only needs to be equipped with one compressor 9, which greatly reduces the number of compressors and energy consumption, lowers the operating cost of the entire system, improves energy utilization efficiency, and achieves energy-saving operation, meeting modern environmental protection and energy-saving requirements.
[0055] Since the compressor 9 can be arranged indoors and there is no need to set up a separate compressor for each room or area, the problem of the large floor space occupied by the indoor and outdoor units in traditional multi-connected air-conditioning systems is avoided, making the layout of the entire air-conditioning system more compact, saving indoor and outdoor space, and being particularly suitable for building environments with limited space, thereby improving space utilization. In addition, the inlet of the outdoor fresh air inlet channel 1 of each box 23 and the outlet of the indoor return air exhaust channel 2 are connected to the outdoor atmosphere through independent pipes. During installation, it is only necessary to connect the corresponding air outlet of each box to the outdoor atmosphere, and at the same time, connect the heat exchanger inside the box to the compressor 9 in parallel. The installation process is relatively simple, which reduces the installation difficulty and installation cost and improves the installation efficiency.
[0056] It is worth mentioning that multiple boxes 23 share one compressor 9, which reduces the possible failure points caused by the simultaneous operation of multiple compressors 9 and improves the reliability of the system. At the same time, the compressor 9 is arranged indoors, avoiding the problems faced by the outdoor unit of the traditional air-conditioning system when operating in harsh outdoor environments such as wind, sun, and rain. This further extends the service life of the compressor 9, reduces the maintenance cost and failure rate of the system, and ensures the stable operation of the entire wet fresh air air conditioning multi-connected system. In addition, the lack of the outdoor unit structure in the traditional air-conditioning system can make the appearance of the building more neat and beautiful, and the installation of the outdoor unit will not destroy the overall beauty of the building. It meets the requirements of modern buildings for appearance design and is particularly suitable for commercial buildings, residential communities and other places with high requirements for building appearance.
[0057] Taking the seasonal environment of Hengyang City, Hunan Province as an example, the control method of the fresh air air conditioner with multi-stage heat and moisture exchange provided in the above embodiment mainly implements the following operating modes through control instructions:
[0058] Spring isothermal dehumidification mode: Figure 3As shown, the compressor 9 is connected to the second heat exchanger 7 through the three-way reversing valve 11, and is connected to the third heat exchanger 8 through the four-way reversing valve 10, so that the second heat exchanger 7 and the third heat exchanger 8 both form condensers, and then the medium in the second heat exchanger 7 (condenser) enters the third heat exchanger 8 (condenser) through the second expansion valve 13. The end of the pipeline is then passed through the first expansion valve 12 to enter the first heat exchanger 6, so that the first heat exchanger 6 forms an evaporator. The second humidifier is turned on to spray water mist on the third heat exchanger 8 (condenser), and the air inlet fan 3 and the exhaust fan 4 are turned on. The outdoor fresh air enters the outdoor fresh air inlet channel 1, and the indoor return air enters the indoor return air exhaust channel 2, and then first passes through the heat and moisture exchange core. 5 performs heat and moisture exchange, reducing the humidity of the outdoor fresh air. The outdoor fresh air then passes through the evaporator formed by the first heat exchanger 6 to reduce its temperature and further dehumidify it. It then passes through the condenser formed by the second heat exchanger 7 to raise its temperature before being delivered indoors to achieve isothermal dehumidified fresh air supply. The medium in the first heat exchanger 6 (evaporator) returns to the compressor 9 through the four-way reversing valve 10. At the same time, the indoor return air passes through the condenser formed by the third heat exchanger 8 to reduce the temperature of the medium in the condenser before being discharged outdoors as high-temperature, high-humidity air. During this process, the second humidifier sprays water mist on the third heat exchanger 8 to provide auxiliary cooling and pressure reduction for the medium in the third heat exchanger 8, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the compressor 9. The energy efficiency in this mode is as follows: the total power of the compressor 9 and the air pump 18 of the second humidifier is 0.70KW; where:
[0059] cop =(h 送 -h 进 )×350×1.2 / 3600 / 0.7
[0060] =(65-37.1)×350×1.2 / 3600 / 0.7=4.65.
[0061] Summer dehumidification cooling mode: Figure 4As shown, the compressor 9 is connected to the third heat exchanger 8 through the four-way reversing valve 10, so that the third heat exchanger 8 forms a condenser, and then the medium in the condenser passes through the first expansion valve 12 and the second expansion valve 13 respectively into the first heat exchanger 6 and the second heat exchanger 7, so that the first heat exchanger 6 and the second heat exchanger 7 form an evaporator, the second humidifier is turned on to spray water mist on the third heat exchanger 8 (condenser), the air inlet fan 3 and the exhaust fan 4 are turned on, the outdoor fresh air enters the outdoor fresh air inlet channel 1, and the indoor return air enters the indoor return air exhaust channel 2, and then first passes through the heat and moisture exchange core 5 for heat and moisture exchange to reduce the humidity of the outdoor fresh air, and then the outdoor fresh air passes through the first The evaporator formed by heat exchanger 6 and the second heat exchanger 7 lowers the temperature and dehumidifies the air, which is then delivered to the room for dehumidified, cooled, and fresh air supply. The medium in the first heat exchanger 6 (evaporator) returns to compressor 9 via four-way reversing valve 10, while the medium in the second heat exchanger 7 (evaporator) returns to compressor 9 via three-way reversing valve 11. Simultaneously, the indoor return air passes through the condenser formed by the third heat exchanger 8 to lower the temperature of the medium in the condenser before being discharged outdoors as high-temperature, high-humidity air. During this process, the second humidifier sprays water mist onto the third heat exchanger 8 to assist in cooling and reducing the pressure of the medium in the third heat exchanger 8, thereby reducing the energy consumption of compressor 9. The energy efficiency in this mode is as follows: The total power of compressor 9 and the air pump 18 of the second humidifier is 0.76 kW; among which:
[0062] eer =(h 进 -h 送 )×350×12 / 3600 / 0.76
[0063] =(107.1-38.5)×350×1.2 / 3600 / 0.76=10.53.
[0064] Winter humidification heating mode: Figure 5As shown, the compressor is connected to the first heat exchanger 6 through the four-way reversing valve 10 and to the second heat exchanger 7 through the three-way reversing valve 11, so that the first heat exchanger 6 and the second heat exchanger 7 both form condensers, and then the medium in the first heat exchanger 6 (condenser) and the medium in the second heat exchanger 7 (condenser) enter the third heat exchanger 8 through the first expansion valve 12 and the second expansion valve 13 respectively, so that the third heat exchanger 8 forms an evaporator, the first humidifier is turned on to spray water mist on the first heat exchanger 6 (condenser) and the second heat exchanger 7 (condenser), the air inlet fan 3 and the exhaust fan 4 are turned on, and the outdoor fresh air enters the outdoor fresh air inlet channel 1 and the indoor After entering the indoor return air exhaust duct 2, the indoor return air first passes through the heat and moisture exchange core 5 to exchange heat and moisture, increasing the humidity of the outdoor fresh air. The outdoor fresh air then passes through the condenser formed by the first heat exchanger 6 (condenser) and the second heat exchanger 7 (condenser) to increase the temperature. It is humidified by the water mist sprayed by the first humidifier and then sent into the room to realize the humidified and heated fresh air supply. The medium in the third heat exchanger 8 (evaporator) returns to the compressor 9 through the four-way reversing valve 10. At the same time, the indoor return air passes through the evaporator formed by the third heat exchanger 8 to increase the temperature of the medium in the condenser, and is then discharged outdoors as low-temperature dry air. The energy efficiency in this mode is as follows: the total power of the compressor 9 and the air pump 18 of the second humidifier is 0.76KW; among which:
[0065] cop=(h 送 -h 进 )×350×1.2 / 3600 / 0.76
[0066] =(57.5-2.7)×350×1.2 / 3600 / 0.76=8.41.
[0067] The multi-stage heat and moisture exchange fresh air air conditioner of the present invention exchanges heat between indoor exhaust air and outdoor fresh air through the heat and moisture membrane within the heat and moisture exchange core. The air conditioner then controls the communication between the compressor and each heat exchanger, as well as the spraying mode of the humidifier, to efficiently and energy-efficiently control the flow direction of heat and water molecules. Through multi-stage heat exchange (heat and moisture membrane, three-exchanger heat pump, and condensate spray), the air conditioner achieves seasonal operating mode control and management of indoor temperature and humidity. In the spring and autumn isothermal dehumidification mode, the compressor uses a reversing valve to form the second and third heat exchangers into a condenser, and the first heat exchanger into an evaporator. The humidifier sprays water mist to assist in cooling. The coordinated operation of the heat and moisture exchange core, the intake fan, and the exhaust fan achieves isothermal dehumidification of the outdoor fresh air before delivery into the room, while also achieving indoor ventilation. In the summer dehumidification and cooling mode and the winter humidification and heating mode, the operating mode of the heat exchanger and the spraying mode of the humidifier are changed to achieve corresponding temperature and humidity regulation functions to meet the needs of the indoor environment in different seasons.
[0068] The effect of this air conditioner is that on the one hand it can accurately realize multiple functions such as isothermal dehumidification, dehumidification cooling and humidification heating according to seasonal changes, provide a comfortable and stable temperature and humidity environment indoors, and improve living and working comfort; on the other hand, by reasonably controlling the coordinated work of various components, it optimizes energy utilization efficiency, reduces compressor energy consumption, and achieves energy-saving operation. At the same time, the system structure is compact, easy to install and maintain, and does not require the external unit structure of traditional air conditioners, further improving the stability and reliability of the system, and has good market application prospects and promotion value.

In addition, the present invention can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious replacement without departing from the concept of the present technical solution is within the scope of protection of the present invention.
