Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of space device thermal management, and particularly relates to a CO 2 space efficient thermal management system with a phase change cold storage device and its control method. Background Art

[0002] With the development of space technology and the advancement of requirements for equipment lightweight and miniaturization, the power and energy flux density of electronic devices have increased significantly. Therefore, the problems of high heat load transmission and dissipation are becoming increasingly severe, and the importance of space device thermal management technology is becoming increasingly prominent.

[0003] Space heat dissipation mainly relies on a radiation radiator to achieve the radiation heat dissipation of the object to be cooled to the deep space environment. When space electronic devices operate, they are equivalent to distributed heat sources. Currently, most heat dissipation technologies use a coolant to centrally transfer the heat generated by the equipment to the radiation radiator, and then the radiation radiator uniformly radiates to the deep space environment. At the same time, distributed heat sources are mostly in an intermittent high-power operating state. If the coolant directly exchanges heat with the liquid cooling plate and then radiates heat, to match the heat generation of the device, a large heat dissipation area and radiator volume are required, which is contrary to the development direction of lightweight and miniaturization; at this time, the operating state of the radiator is also consistent with the working state of the device, and it only works intermittently for a short time, and the overall heat dissipation capacity is not fully utilized. Therefore, the technology for dissipating the intermittent high-power heat load of distributed heat sources needs to be developed urgently. Summary of the Invention

[0020] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings: In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of the present invention; the terms "first", "second", "third" are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be construed as indicating or implying relative importance; in addition, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection or a detachable connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the internal communication of two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0021] Please refer to Figure 1 as shown, the present invention provides a space-efficient thermal management system with a phase change energy storage device, which includes a heat source liquid cooling plate 1, a phase change energy storage device 2, a secondary refrigerant storage tank 3, CO 2 working fluid pump, 5 is the CO2 The working fluid pump 4, CO 2 compressor 5, radiation radiator 6 and expansion valve 7. Among them, the heat source liquid cooling plate 1, the phase change energy storage device 2, the coolant storage tank 3 and CO 2 the working fluid pump 4 constitute the pump-driven cooling cycle part, and the phase change energy storage device 2, CO 2 compressor 5, radiation radiator 6 and expansion valve 7 constitute the heat pump heat dissipation cycle part. The pump-driven cooling cycle part and the heat pump heat dissipation cycle part exchange heat through the phase change energy storage device 2 as the heat exchange hub. The phase change medium flowing in the pump-driven cooling cycle part is CO 2 coolant, and the phase change medium flowing in the heat pump heat dissipation cycle part is CO 2 refrigerant.

[0022] Specifically, in the pump-driven cooling cycle part, the coolant storage tank 3 stores coolant inside. The outlet of the coolant storage tank 3 is connected to the 2 inlet of the working fluid pump 4, and the outlet of the CO 2 working fluid pump 4 is connected to the inlet of the heat source liquid cooling plate 1. The outlet of the heat source liquid cooling plate 1 is connected to the heat source inlet of the phase change energy storage device 2. The heat source outlet of the phase change energy storage device 2 is connected to the inlet of the coolant storage tank 3.

[0023] In the pump-driven cooling cycle, under the action of the CO 2 working fluid pump 4, the two-phase CO 2 flows into the heat source liquid cooling plate 1 to exchange heat with the distributed heat source. By absorbing the heat generated by the distributed heat source on the heat source liquid cooling plate 1, the coolant CO 2 after heat absorption flows to the phase change energy storage device 2 to exchange heat with the phase change material and release heat. After heat release, the CO 2 flows through the coolant storage tank 3 and returns to the CO 2 working fluid pump 4, and so on in a cycle. The pump-driven cooling cycle can achieve efficient heat dissipation of the distributed heat source and ensure and maintain the appropriate temperature of the distributed heat source.

[0024] Specifically, in the heat pump heat dissipation cycle part, the cold source outlet of the phase change energy storage device 2 is connected to the 2 inlet of the compressor 5, and the outlet of the CO 2 compressor 5 is connected to the inlet of the radiation radiator 6. The outlet of the radiation radiator 6 is connected to the inlet of the expansion valve 7. The outlet of the expansion valve 7 is connected to the cold source inlet of the phase change energy storage device 2.

[0025] In the heat pump heat dissipation cycle, the low-temperature CO 2 flows through the phase change energy storage device 2, absorbs the heat inside the phase change energy storage device 2, and then passes through the CO 2 compressor 5 to be compressed to a high-temperature and high-pressure state and flows into the radiation radiator 6 to exchange radiation heat with the deep space environment. After heat dissipation, the CO 2After being throttled to a low-temperature and low-pressure state by the expansion valve 7, it flows towards the phase change energy storage device 2, and so on in a cycle. The heat pump heat dissipation cycle can make the refrigerant absorb the calorific value of the distributed heat source stored in the phase change energy storage device, and through the 2 action of the compressor 5, achieve the purpose of radiating heat at a higher temperature. The heat pump cycle can significantly increase the heat dissipation per unit radiation area, and realize the reduction of the size of the radiation heat exchanger 6 and the reduction of the emission quality.

[0026] The setting of this system enables the pump-driven cooling cycle to efficiently transfer the heat released by the distributed heat source to the phase change energy storage device 2 through the coolant for storage, achieving the purpose of distributed heat source thermal management; the heat pump heat dissipation cycle can absorb the heat in the phase change energy storage device 2, and realize the efficient heat dissipation of the refrigerant at a higher temperature in the radiation radiator 6, significantly reducing the size of the radiation radiator 6.

[0027] In some embodiments of the present invention, the internal flow channel design of the heat source liquid cooling plate 1 is based on microchannel technology, using wavy flow channels and fins to enhance perturbation and expand the surface to strengthen heat transfer, effectively improving the convective heat transfer coefficient and heat transfer area of the coolant, and significantly enhancing the heat transfer effect of the cold plate; in addition, a serpentine multi-pass flow channel structure is adopted to improve the temperature uniformity of the distributed heat source. Using a ceramic copper clad laminate as the substrate, the distributed heat source is welded on it, and then mechanically fastened to be connected with the base of the heat source liquid cooling plate, and thermal conductive silicone grease is filled in the gap to reduce the contact thermal resistance. The heat transfer between the distributed heat source and the coolant is realized through the heat source liquid cooling plate 1.

[0028] In some embodiments of the present invention, the coolant in the pump-driven cooling cycle part is CO 2 phase change working fluid, that is, CO 2 coolant, which can break through the limitation that the temperature of the single-phase fluid continuously rises along the flow channel and ensure the temperature uniformity of the distributed heat source. In addition, CO 2 has the advantages of large density and small volume, and the pressure loss and saturation temperature change caused by the frictional resistance along the pipeline are very small, strengthening the improvement of the temperature uniformity of the distributed heat source. At this time, the temperature of CO 2 is lower than the temperature of the distributed heat source to absorb the heat of the distributed heat source, and at the same time it is higher than the temperature of the phase change energy storage device 2 to effectively release heat, so as to realize the transmission and temporary storage of high heat load.

[0029] In some embodiments of the present invention, the phase change medium flowing in the heat pump heat dissipation cycle part is CO 2 refrigerant, the heat pump cycle is CO 2 transcritical cycle, and the cooling process with gradually decreasing fluid temperature is carried out in the radiation radiator 6. The CO 2The temperature is significantly increased compared with the traditional refrigerant cycle, and the average temperature of the radiation radiator 6 is significantly increased, which helps to reduce the size and emission mass of the radiation radiator 6.

[0030] Furthermore, the application of the phase change energy storage device 2 realizes the connection between the pump-driven cooling cycle and the heat pump heat dissipation cycle. When both the pump-driven cooling cycle and the heat pump heat dissipation cycle are operating, the phase change energy storage device 2 gradually stores the heat absorbed by the coolant through the heat source liquid cooling plate 1; when the device stops operating, the pump-driven cooling cycle stops accordingly, while the heat pump heat dissipation cycle continues to work, and the refrigerant continuously absorbs the heat in the phase change energy storage device 2, which can realize the decoupling of the operating states of the distributed heat source and the radiation radiator 6 and perform radiation heat dissipation with the average power of the distributed heat source cycle, further realizing the reduction of the size and emission mass of the radiation heat exchanger. In addition, due to the reduction of the maximum installed power of the thermal management system, the capacity, volume and emission mass of thermal management components such as the CO 2 compressor 5 also decrease accordingly. Finally, the reduction of the emission mass of the radiation radiator 6 can be more than 4 times the total emission mass of the compressor 5 and the phase change energy storage device 2, achieving the purpose of miniaturization and light weight of the device. 2 compressor 5 and the phase change energy storage device 2, achieving the purpose of miniaturization and light weight of the device. 2 compressor 5 and the phase change energy storage device 2, achieving the purpose of miniaturization and light weight of the device.

[0031] It should be noted that the coolant in the pump-driven cooling cycle and the refrigerant in the heat pump heat dissipation cycle flow into the phase change energy storage device 2 from different inlets and flow out from different outlets, and there is no direct heat exchange between them.

[0032] Furthermore, the powers of the pump-driven cooling cycle and the heat pump heat dissipation cycle are mutually matched. The operation time per unit cycle of the distributed heat source is t s , during which the operation time is t r , the heat generation is P, and the distributed heat source does not work for the remaining time. The cooling capacity of the heat pump heat dissipation cycle is Q, and the additional power consumption of the CO 2 compressor 5 is W. Therefore, for a single operation to ensure the appropriate temperature of the distributed heat source, the relationship between the energies satisfies:

[0033]

[0034] In the heat pump cycle, the CO 2 capacity of the compressor 5 is selected according to the calculated cooling capacity Q, and a certain margin is ensured.

[0035] Furthermore, the working temperature range of the distributed heat source is (T min , T max ), the set and optimal working temperature range is (T lo , T up ), and the set CO 2The heat transfer temperature difference between the secondary refrigerant and the distributed heat source is approximately , and the heat transfer temperature difference between the secondary refrigerant and the phase change material is approximately . The temperature control target of the distributed heat source is ; the phase change energy storage device 2 uses a paraffin-based phase change material with a phase change temperature of T p and a latent heat of phase change of L f . The mass m of the phase change material in the phase change energy storage device 2 should be able to cover the heat absorbed by the secondary refrigerant during the operation of the distributed heat source and ensure a certain margin, , where n is the margin coefficient.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 2 shown. The present invention provides a control method for a CO2 space efficient heat management system with a phase change energy storage device, which real-time monitors the temperature of the distributed heat source.

[0037] When the distributed heat source is in operation and the temperature exceeds the upper limit of the set working temperature range, that is, the temperature of the distributed heat source satisfies , the pump-driven cooling system is started, and the rotational speed of the CO 2 working medium pump 4 is controlled by PID, taking the dryness of the CO 2 at the outlet of the heat source liquid cooling plate 1 as the target, and adjusting the rotational speed of the CO 2 working medium pump 4. If the dryness x at the outlet is higher than the set target value, that is, when 2 , the rotational speed of the CO 2 working medium pump 4 increases, the CO 2 flow rate increases, the dryness at the outlet of the CO 2 is reduced, and the flow rate of the CO 2 is made to meet the requirements of phase change heat transfer and is located in the two-phase region to maintain temperature stability; if the dryness at the outlet of the CO 2 is lower than the set target temperature value, that is, when , the rotational speed of the CO 2 working medium pump 4 decreases, the CO 2 flow rate decreases, the dryness at the outlet of the CO 2 is increased, and the flow rate of the CO 2 is made to minimize the pressure loss and the energy consumption of the CO 2 working medium pump 4 on the basis of meeting the phase change heat transfer; if the two are basically equal, when , the rotational speed of the working medium pump 4 remains unchanged. Through the regulation of the rotational speed of the CO 2 working medium pump 4, the matching between the secondary refrigerant flow rate and the heat generation of the distributed heat source and the optimization of the temperature uniformity of the distributed heat source are achieved, and the temperature of the distributed heat source is maintained within the optimal working temperature range. When the operation of the distributed heat source stops, the pump-driven cooling cycle stops with a delay.

[0038] The heat pump heat dissipation cycle takes the periodic average power of the distributed heat source as the refrigerating capacity control target, adopts PID control, and uses CO 2 The rotational speed regulation of the compressor 4 for the cycle refrigerating capacity, that is, the heat absorption amount from the phase change energy storage device 2, realizes the flexible adjustment of the heat dissipation amount. If the CO 2 The heat absorption amount of the refrigerant flowing through the phase change energy storage device 2 is less than the average power of the distributed heat source, that is, Q < Q a , CO 2 The rotational speed of the compressor 4 increases, the refrigerant flow rate increases, and the heat absorption amount increases; if the CO 2 The heat absorption amount of the refrigerant flowing through the phase change energy storage device 2 is greater than the average power Q of the distributed heat source, Q > Q a , CO 2 The rotational speed of the compressor 4 decreases, the refrigerant flow rate decreases, and the heat absorption amount decreases; if the two are basically equal, the current rotational speed is maintained.

[0039] Furthermore, when the temperature T s of the phase change energy storage device 2 is lower than the phase change temperature T p -2 of the phase change material, it indicates that the stored cold amount in the variable energy storage tank 2 is sufficient at this time, and the CO 2 compressor 4 stops running. When the temperature T s of the phase change energy storage device 2 is higher than T p +2, it indicates that the heat dissipation amount of the heat pump cycle is insufficient compared with the heat generation amount of the distributed heat source at this time, and the set value Q a of the heat absorption amount of the refrigerant flowing through the phase change energy storage device 2 is increased.
