[0082] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the embodiments and drawings of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0083] Embodiment 1

[0084] In this embodiment, the system monitoring module is composed of a sensing controller, a sensing device unit, an execution unit, and an interaction unit. The sensing device unit includes temperature, pressure, flow rate, and differential pressure sensors. The execution unit includes an inverter and an electric valve for adjusting the speeds of the water pump and the fan. The interaction unit is composed of a control panel and a central monitoring software; the energy-saving module is composed of a variable-frequency drive unit and a heat recovery unit. The variable-frequency drive system is used to control the variable-frequency water pump and the variable-frequency cooling tower fan, and the heat recovery unit is used to recover the condensation heat to save energy consumption;

[0085] The overall control process of the chilled water system includes:

[0086] 1) Refrigeration cycle: After the system detects the cooling demand of the terminal heat exchange equipment, the refrigeration unit is started. First, the compressor compresses the low-temperature and low-pressure gaseous refrigerant into a high-temperature and high-pressure gas, which is sent to the condenser. The cooling water from the cooling tower absorbs the heat of the refrigerant to condense the refrigerant into a high-pressure liquid. The liquid refrigerant enters the evaporator after being depressurized and cooled by the throttling device, and the chilled water is further cooled by the evaporation and heat absorption of the refrigerant;

[0087] 2) Cooling capacity transmission and distribution: The system controls the primary pump to operate at a constant flow rate, directly pumping the chilled water from the evaporator to the water distributor. Then, the secondary pump adjusts the speed of the secondary pump through the inverter according to the load change of the terminal equipment to achieve variable flow transmission. At this time, the water distributor distributes the low-temperature chilled water to each branch, and then enters the terminal equipment and exchanges heat with the air through the surface cooler. After the chilled water absorbs heat and warms up, it is collected by the water collector and returned to the evaporator;

[0088] 3) Cooling water circulation and heat discharge: Start the cooling water pump to pump the cooling water from the condenser outlet to the cooling tower. In the tower, the cooling water is evenly sprayed on the filler through the water distributor. After full contact with the air, it evaporates and dissipates heat. The fan is used for ventilation to accelerate heat discharge. The cooled cooling water returns to the condenser to achieve the cooling water circulation effect. The side filter and dosing device can continuously remove impurities to prevent scaling and microbial growth.

[0089] 4) Temperature adjustment of terminal equipment: The fan coil unit drives air through the coil through the fan, transferring the chilled water cooling capacity to the indoor environment. The air handling unit mixes the fresh air and the return air, filters and cools them, and then sends them to various areas of the room through the air duct. At the same time, the condensed water generated by the terminal equipment is discharged to the floor drain through the drain pipe to prevent water accumulation and bacterial growth;

[0090] 5) Dynamic adjustment of the control system: Based on temperature, pressure and flow sensors, the chilled water supply and return water temperature and pipeline pressure difference and other parameters are monitored in real time. At this time, the DDC controller adjusts the compressor frequency, water pump speed and cooling tower fan start and stop control according to load changes, and controls the flow of each branch through the electric regulating valve to balance the system hydraulics;

[0091] 6) Energy-saving and optimized operation: Based on variable frequency technology, energy consumption can be reduced by reducing the speed of the chilled water pump, cooling water pump and fan at partial load, and the heat of the condenser can be recovered and used for domestic hot water or heating, further reducing energy consumption.

[0092] Embodiment 2

[0093] In this embodiment, the effects of optimizing the number of equipment, the water inlet temperature of the refrigeration unit, and the pressure difference between the supply and return water of chilled water on the energy consumption and energy saving optimization of the system are studied respectively, including:

[0094] 1) Impact of optimizing the number of equipment in operation on system energy consumption

[0095] Combination Figure 3 In the simulation data, the traditional energy-saving control method is to adjust the number of chillers according to the actual cooling load of the air-conditioning system, and at the same time adjust the number of corresponding cooling water pumps and chilled water primary pumps;

[0096] Through the optimization of the binary particle swarm algorithm, the number of operating units and pumps can be determined according to the minimum energy consumption of the objective function. Compared with the traditional method, when the load is an intermediate value (12.6-19.8kW), it can save about 10% of the average energy consumption compared with the traditional method. At high load (19.8-21.4kW) and low load (10.9-12.6kW), the total energy consumption of the two methods is close to the same.

[0097] 2) Impact of unit inlet water temperature optimization on system energy consumption

[0098] Combined with Figure 4 the simulation data in [reference], the traditional method is to fix the inlet temperature T of the chiller CHWS , and change the chilled water flow rate to meet the load demand. According to the overall energy-saving goal of the system, the inlet temperature T of the chiller CHWS varies with the load, and compared with the traditional method, it can save about 7% of the average energy consumption on average;

[0099] 3) Influence of chilled water supply and return pressure difference optimization on system energy consumption

[0100] Combined with Figure 5 the simulation data in [reference], the traditional method is to use a fixed supply and return pressure difference H CHW2 to ensure that there is enough chilled water in the terminal heat exchange equipment under various conditions, and ensure that the supply and return pressure difference H of the chilled water CHW2 varies with the load. Under full load conditions, the secondary chilled water pump is in full-speed operation, and the total energy consumption of the two methods approaches the same. Under partial load, by ensuring that at least one chilled water valve is fully open, the speed of the secondary chilled water pump is reduced, and at this time, the average energy consumption can be reduced by about 8%.

[0101] In summary, for this central air-conditioning chilled water system and energy-saving optimization control method, by constructing the energy consumption models of each module, establishing the objective function and constraint conditions required for optimization, and calculating and optimizing the parameter settings in the chilled water circulation and cooling water circulation modules of the system according to the binary particle swarm optimization algorithm, automatically adjusting the operating parameters of the chilled water system during the load period based on the optimized parameters to achieve the effect of efficient energy-saving optimization control.

The computer software programs or protocols themselves involved in this functional module are all well-known technologies to those skilled in the art, and they are not the improvements of this system; the improvement of this system is the interaction relationship or connection relationship between each module, that is, the overall structure of the system is improved to solve the corresponding technical problems to be solved by this system.

[0103] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention.
