Description

Technical Field

[0002] When the heat pump system is running in heating mode, the outdoor heat exchanger is in a heat absorption state. When running for a long time in a low temperature environment, the outdoor heat exchanger is prone to frost.

[0066] Those skilled in the art will understand that Figure 7 The device structure shown in the figure does not constitute a limitation of the device, and may include more or less components than shown in the figure, or combine certain components, or arrange the components differently.

[0067] like Figure 7 As shown, the memory 1002 as a computer storage medium may include a control program for the heat pump system.

[0068] exist Figure 7 In the device shown, the processor 1001 can be used to call the control program of the heat pump system stored in the memory 1002, and execute the relevant step operations of the control method of the heat pump system in the following embodiment.

[0069] An embodiment of the present invention further provides a control method for a heat pump system, which is applied to the above-mentioned heat pump system.

[0070] Reference Figure 8 , an embodiment of a control method for the heat pump system of the present application is proposed. In this embodiment, the heat pump system has at least two of the first defrost mode, the second defrost mode and the third defrost mode. In the first defrost mode, the refrigerant pipe in the energy storage device of the heat pump system is in an evaporating state, in the second defrost mode, the indoor heat exchanger of the heat pump system is in an evaporating state, and in the third defrost mode, the refrigerant pipe in the energy storage device and the indoor heat exchanger are both in an evaporating state. The first defrost mode, the second defrost mode and the third defrost mode here can be specifically the first defrost mode, the second defrost mode and the third defrost mode mentioned above. Here, the refrigerant pipe in the energy storage device is connected to the energy storage medium for heat exchange, and when the refrigerant pipe in the energy storage device is in an evaporating state, the refrigerant flowing through can absorb the heat in the energy storage medium. The control method of the heat pump system includes:

[0071] Step S10, when the heat pump system runs to meet the defrosting condition, obtaining the first state information of the energy storage device in the heat pump system and / or the second state information of the indoor heat exchanger;

[0072] The first state information and the second state information are both state information indicating the amount of heat that the corresponding device is allowed to provide to the outdoor unit in the evaporation state.

[0073] The first status information includes but is not limited to: whether the heat pump system is equipped with an energy storage device, whether the energy storage device is damaged, the temperature status of the energy storage device, the capacity status of the energy storage device, the relationship between the energy storage medium temperature of the energy storage device and the indoor ambient temperature, etc.

[0074] The second state information includes but is not limited to: whether the indoor heat exchanger is in a condensing state, the temperature state of the indoor environment where the indoor heat exchanger is located, and the like.

[0075] In this embodiment, the energy storage device can store the heat of the refrigerant discharged by the compressor. For example, when the switching valve is operated in the second switching state and the first control valve is opened, the refrigerant discharged by the compressor flows into the energy storage device, and the energy storage medium in the energy storage device absorbs the heat in the refrigerant and stores it; for example, when the energy storage device is connected in parallel with the indoor heat exchanger, a part of the heat of the refrigerant discharged by the compressor can be stored in the heating mode. In other embodiments, the energy storage device can also be connected to the outer wall of the compressor for heat exchange to store the heat generated when the compressor is working.

[0076] When the heat pump system runs in a preset mode and reaches the defrosting condition, step S10 here can be executed. In the preset mode, the outdoor heat exchanger is in an evaporating state. The preset mode may include but is not limited to the above-mentioned heating mode, heat storage mode, or heating and heat storage mode. For example, the defrosting condition may include that the outdoor ambient temperature is less than or equal to the preset ambient temperature and / or the outdoor heat exchanger is less than or equal to the preset heat exchanger temperature, etc.

[0077] Step S20, determining a target defrosting mode of the heat pump system according to the first state information and / or the second state information;

[0078] Specifically, a correspondence between the first state information and / or the second state information and the target defrost mode can be established in advance. The correspondence may include a calculation relationship, a mapping relationship, etc. Based on the correspondence, the target defrost mode corresponding to the current first state information and / or the second state information can be determined.

[0079] In one implementation, different first state information corresponds to different first characterization values, and different second state information corresponds to different second characterization values. The first evaluation value corresponding to the first defrost mode, the second evaluation value corresponding to the second defrost mode, and the third evaluation value corresponding to the third defrost mode are calculated based on the first characterization value and / or the second characterization value, and the defrost mode with the largest value among the first evaluation value, the second evaluation value and the third evaluation value is taken as the target defrost mode.

[0080] In another implementation, first preset state information corresponding to the energy storage device and / or the indoor heat exchanger corresponding to the first defrost mode, second preset state information corresponding to the energy storage device and / or the indoor heat exchanger corresponding to the second defrost mode, and third preset state information corresponding to the energy storage device and / or the indoor heat exchanger corresponding to the third defrost mode can be pre-set. When the first state information and / or the second state information matches the first preset state information, the first defrost mode is determined to be the target defrost mode. When the first state information and / or the second state information matches the second preset state information, the second defrost mode is determined to be the target defrost mode. When the first state information and / or the second state information matches the third preset state information, the third defrost mode is determined to be the target defrost mode.

[0081] Step S30, controlling the heat pump system to run the target defrost mode to defrost the outdoor unit of the heat pump system.

[0082] When the target defrost mode is the first defrost mode, the heat pump system is controlled to run the first defrost mode; when the target defrost mode is the second defrost mode, the heat pump system is controlled to run the second defrost mode; when the target defrost mode is the third defrost mode, the heat pump system is controlled to run the third defrost mode.

[0083] In the first defrost mode, the second defrost mode and the third defrost mode, the outdoor heat exchanger is in a condensing state, and the refrigerant can release heat to melt the frost in the outdoor unit.

[0084] A control method for a heat pump system is proposed in an embodiment of the present invention. In the method, a target defrost mode for the heat pump system to be operated is selected from at least two defrost modes, namely, a first defrost mode, a second defrost mode and a third defrost mode, according to the state of an energy storage device and / or an indoor heat exchanger in the heat pump system. Under some working conditions, the heat required for the defrost operation of the heat pump system can be partially or completely absorbed from the heat stored in the energy storage device, which can effectively reduce the situation in which the heat pump system absorbs all the heat from the indoor environment during the defrost operation, reduce the temperature loss in the indoor environment, thereby ensuring the defrost effect of the system while reducing the indoor temperature fluctuation during the defrost process, thereby improving indoor comfort.

[0085] Further, based on the above embodiment, another embodiment of the control method of the heat pump system of the present application is proposed. In this embodiment, the first state information includes the energy storage medium temperature of the energy storage device and / or the capacity state of the energy storage device, referring to Fig. 9 , the step S20 comprises:

[0086] Step S21, determining a target defrosting mode of the heat pump system according to the energy storage medium temperature and / or the capacity state.

[0087] The temperature of the energy storage medium is specifically detected by the temperature detection module provided in the above-mentioned energy storage device.

[0088] The capacity state can be obtained by reading pre-stored parameters, or calculated by pre-stored parameters of the energy storage device, or determined by monitoring the current state parameters of the energy storage device.

[0089] Different energy storage medium temperatures and / or different capacity states correspond to different target defrosting modes.

[0090] Specifically, when the temperature and / or capacity state of the energy storage medium meets the first condition, the first defrost mode is determined as the target defrost mode; when the temperature and / or capacity state of the energy storage medium meets the second condition, the second defrost mode is determined as the target defrost mode; when the temperature and / or capacity state of the energy storage medium meets the third condition, the third defrost mode is determined as the target defrost mode.

[0091] In this embodiment, the temperature and / or capacity state of the energy storage medium can accurately reflect the amount of heat that the energy storage device can provide to the outdoor heat exchanger during the defrosting process. Therefore, selecting the target defrost mode based on the temperature and / or capacity state of the energy storage medium can accurately reflect the defrosting capacity of the energy storage device, which is beneficial to improving the accuracy of the target defrost mode, thereby achieving an effective balance between indoor comfort and defrosting effect.

[0092] Further, in this embodiment, referring to Fig.10 , step S21 comprises:

[0093] Step S211, when the temperature of the energy storage medium is less than or equal to a preset temperature, determining that the second defrost mode is the target defrost mode;

[0094] The preset temperature is specifically the minimum energy storage medium temperature required for defrosting of the outdoor unit. The preset temperature may be a preset fixed temperature, or a temperature determined according to outdoor environmental parameters and / or a fan speed of an outdoor fan corresponding to an outdoor heat exchanger.

[0095] Step S212, when the temperature of the energy storage medium is greater than the preset temperature and the capacity of the energy storage device meets the preset conditions required for defrosting of the outdoor unit, determining the first defrost mode as the target defrost mode;

[0096] The preset conditions may include a target interval that the capacity needs to reach or a target relationship with a target parameter threshold, etc.

[0097] In this embodiment, the preset conditions include: the ratio of the rated capacity of the energy storage device to the rated capacity of the outdoor unit is greater than or equal to a preset value. The rated capacity of the energy storage device is positively correlated with the energy storage capacity of the energy storage device. The preset value is different for different models of heat pump systems. In one implementation, the rated capacity of the energy storage device can be calculated by the energy storage capacity; in another embodiment, the interval in which the energy storage capacity is located can be determined, and the rated capacity of the energy storage device can be determined based on the interval. For example, the relationship between the energy storage capacity and the rated capacity of the energy storage device can be shown in the following table:

[0098] Energy storage capacity / L Rated capacity / kW 150 2.8 200 3.6

[0099] In other embodiments, the preset condition may also include that the rated capacity of the energy storage device is greater than the rated capacity of the outdoor unit.

[0100] Step S213: when the temperature of the energy storage medium is greater than the preset temperature and the capacity of the energy storage device does not meet the preset condition, determining the third defrost mode as the target defrost mode.

[0101] In this embodiment, when the temperature of the energy storage medium is less than or equal to the preset temperature, it indicates that the temperature of the energy storage medium is insufficient and cannot provide the required heat for defrosting the outdoor unit. At this time, the heat pump system defrosts in the second defrost mode to ensure the defrosting effect of the heat pump system and shorten the defrosting time to ensure that the heat pump system can quickly recover to the operating state actually required by the user after defrosting. When the temperature of the energy storage medium is greater than the preset temperature, it indicates that the temperature of the energy storage medium is high enough. At this time, it is further combined with whether the capacity of the energy storage device meets the preset conditions to distinguish whether the defrosting capacity of the energy storage device is sufficient to melt all the frost of the outdoor unit. If the capacity meets the preset conditions, it indicates that the defrosting capacity is large enough. At this time, the first defrosting mode is used for defrosting, and the indoor heat exchanger does not need to operate in the evaporation state, which is conducive to avoiding a significant drop in the indoor ambient temperature, so as to ensure the defrosting effect and improve the indoor comfort; if the capacity does not meet the preset conditions, it indicates that there is defrosting capacity but the defrosting capacity is insufficient. At this time, the third defrosting mode is used for defrosting, and the defrosting capacity is supplemented by evaporation of the indoor heat exchanger, which can reduce the drop in indoor temperature when the indoor heat exchanger is used alone to absorb heat for defrosting, thereby ensuring the defrosting effect and improving the indoor comfort.

[0102] In other embodiments, the first preset temperature is lower than the second preset temperature, and when the temperature of the energy storage medium is lower than or equal to the first preset temperature, the second defrost mode is determined to be the target defrost mode; when the temperature of the energy storage medium is higher than the second preset temperature, the first defrost mode is determined to be the target defrost mode; when the temperature of the energy storage medium is higher than the first preset temperature and lower than or equal to the second preset temperature, the third defrost mode is determined to be the target defrost mode. Alternatively, when the capacity of the energy storage device meets the preset conditions, the first defrost mode is determined to be the target defrost mode; when the capacity of the energy storage device does not meet the preset conditions, the second defrost mode or the third defrost mode is determined to be the target defrost mode.

[0103] In other embodiments, when the temperature of the energy storage medium is greater than the preset temperature, the first defrost mode is determined to be the target defrost mode.

[0104] In other embodiments, when the temperature and / or capacity state of the energy storage medium satisfies any of the mentioned conditions, other defrost modes different from the above-mentioned defrost modes may also be selected.

[0105] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the first status information also includes whether the heat pump system is installed with the energy storage device, and the step of determining the target defrost mode of the heat pump system according to the first status information includes: when the heat pump system has installed the energy storage device, determining the target defrost mode of the heat pump system according to the energy storage medium temperature and / or the capacity status; when the heat pump system is not installed with the energy storage device, determining the second defrost mode as the target defrost mode.

[0106] Based on this, when the energy storage device is not installed in the heat pump system due to damage, maintenance, etc., the defrosting effect of the heat pump system can be guaranteed and the normal heat exchange requirements of the heat pump system can be met.

[0107] Further, based on any of the above embodiments, another embodiment of the control method of the heat pump system of the present application is proposed. In this embodiment, the first state information includes the heat exchange state of the energy storage device, and the second state information includes the heat exchange state of the indoor heat exchanger. The heat exchange state of the energy storage device may include one of the following states: the energy storage device is in a condensing state, the energy storage device is in an evaporating state, the energy storage device is not in a heat exchange state, and so on. The heat exchange state of the indoor heat exchanger may include one of the following states: the indoor heat exchanger is in a condensing state, the indoor heat exchanger is in an evaporating state, the indoor heat exchanger is not in a heat exchange state, and so on. Here, the refrigerant pipe in the energy storage device is connected to the energy storage medium for heat exchange. When the refrigerant pipe in the energy storage device is in an evaporating state, the refrigerant flowing through it can absorb the heat stored in the energy storage medium. When the refrigerant pipe in the energy storage device is in a condensing state, the energy storage medium can absorb the heat flowing through the refrigerant and store it. Refer to Fig.11 , the step S20 comprises:

[0108] Step S22, when the indoor heat exchanger is in a condensing state and the refrigerant pipe in the energy storage device is not in a condensing state, determining that the second defrost mode is the target defrost mode;

[0109] When the heat pump system operates in the above-mentioned heating mode, the indoor heat exchanger is in a condensing state and the refrigerant pipe in the energy storage device is not in a condensing state.

[0110] Step S23, when the refrigerant pipes in the indoor heat exchanger and the energy storage device are both in a condensing state, or when the indoor heat exchanger is not in a condensing state and the refrigerant pipes in the energy storage device are in a condensing state, determine that the first defrost mode or the third defrost mode is the target defrost mode.

[0111] When the heat pump system operates in the above-mentioned heating and heat storage modes, the refrigerant pipes in the indoor heat exchanger and the energy storage device are both in a condensing state.

[0112] When the heat pump system operates in the above-mentioned heat storage mode, the indoor heat exchanger is not in a condensing state and the refrigerant pipe in the energy storage device is in a condensing state.

[0113] When the indoor heat exchanger and the refrigerant pipe in the energy storage device are both in a condensing state, or when the indoor heat exchanger is not in a condensing state and the refrigerant pipe in the energy storage device is in a condensing state, the target defrost mode can be determined in the first defrost mode and the third defrost mode according to the energy storage medium temperature and / or the capacity state. For example, when the capacity of the energy storage device meets the preset conditions required for the above-mentioned outdoor unit defrosting, the first defrost mode is determined to be the target defrost mode; when the capacity of the energy storage device does not meet the preset conditions, the third defrost mode is determined to be the target defrost mode. For another example, when the energy storage medium temperature of the energy storage device is greater than the preset medium temperature, the first defrost mode is determined to be the target defrost mode; when the energy storage medium temperature of the energy storage device is less than or equal to the preset medium temperature, the third defrost mode is determined to be the target defrost mode. For another example, when the energy storage medium temperature of the energy storage device is greater than the preset medium temperature and the capacity meets the preset conditions required for the above-mentioned outdoor unit defrosting, the first defrost mode is determined to be the target defrost mode; when the energy storage medium temperature of the energy storage device is less than or equal to the preset medium temperature, or when the capacity of the energy storage device does not meet the preset conditions, the third defrost mode is determined to be the target defrost mode.

[0114] In this embodiment, the heat exchange state of the energy storage device and the heat exchange state of the indoor heat exchanger can reflect whether the indoor heat exchanger and the energy storage device can provide heat for defrosting the outdoor unit after switching to the evaporation state. Based on this, the defrost mode is selected in combination with the heat exchange state of the energy storage device and the heat exchange state of the indoor heat exchanger, which is conducive to further ensuring the defrost effect, meeting the user's heat exchange needs and improving indoor comfort.

[0115] In other embodiments, when the indoor heat exchanger is in a condensing state and the refrigerant pipe in the energy storage device is not in a condensing state, the second defrost mode may be determined as the target defrost mode; when the refrigerant pipe in the energy storage device is in a condensing state, the first defrost mode may be determined as the target defrost mode.

[0116] Further, based on any of the above embodiments, another embodiment of the control method of the heat pump system of the present application is proposed.

[0119] When the heat pump system runs the third defrost mode, the reversing component is controlled to operate so that the exhaust port of the compressor is connected to the outdoor heat exchanger, the refrigerant branch and the indoor unit are connected to the return air port of the compressor, and the first control valve and the second control valve are controlled to be open.

[0120] In this embodiment, the reversing assembly includes a first reversing valve, a second reversing valve and a switching valve, the exhaust port, the return air port and the indoor heat exchanger are all connected to the first reversing valve, the exhaust port, the return air port and the outdoor heat exchanger are all connected to the second reversing valve, the exhaust port, the return air port and the refrigerant branch are all connected to the switching valve, and the step of controlling the operation of the reversing assembly so that the exhaust port of the compressor is connected to the outdoor heat exchanger, the refrigerant branch and the indoor unit are all connected to the return air port of the compressor includes: controlling the first reversing valve to operate in a first valve position so that the return air port is connected to the indoor unit, controlling the second reversing valve to operate in a third valve position so that the exhaust port is connected to the outdoor heat exchanger, and controlling the switching valve to operate in a first switching state so that the return air port is connected to the refrigerant branch.

[0121] Based on this, the operating status of the heat pump system in each defrost mode is as follows:

The refrigerant flowing into the refrigerant branch is in an evaporating state when flowing through the energy storage device and absorbs heat from the energy storage medium in the energy storage device, and the refrigerant flowing out of the refrigerant branch flows back to the compressor. In the first defrosting mode, the outdoor heat exchanger is in a condensing state to release heat to melt the frost in the outdoor unit, while the refrigerant pipeline in the energy storage device is in an evaporating state to absorb heat for defrosting the outdoor unit.

[0123] In the second defrost mode, refer to Figure 5 , the first reversing valve operates at the first valve position, the second reversing valve operates at the third valve position, the switching valve is in the first switching state, the first control valve is opened, and the second control valve is closed, the exhaust port of the compressor is connected to the outdoor heat exchanger, and the refrigerant discharged from the compressor flows through the outdoor heat exchanger and the throttling device in sequence and then flows into the indoor unit.

In the second defrosting mode, the outdoor heat exchanger is in a condensing state to release heat to melt the frost in the outdoor unit, while the indoor heat exchanger is in an evaporating state to absorb heat for defrosting the outdoor unit.

[0124] In the third defrost mode, refer to Figure 6 , the first reversing valve operates at the first valve position, the second reversing valve operates at the third valve position, the switching valve is in the first switching state, the first control valve is opened, and the second control valve is closed, the exhaust port of the compressor is connected to the outdoor heat exchanger, and the refrigerant discharged from the compressor flows through the outdoor heat exchanger and the throttling device in sequence and then flows into the indoor unit and the refrigerant branch respectively.
