Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of dehumidifying air conditioners, and particularly relates to a fault warning system for the circulating cooling of a dehumidifying air conditioner system. Background Art
[0002] Protective engineering is of great strategic importance. The protective engineering is buried deep underground, and its operation highly depends on the effective guarantee of the air environment. The ventilation and air conditioning system is called the "lifeline" of the protective engineering. Ensuring the reliable operation of the ventilation and air conditioning system is the primary task of engineering operation and maintenance guarantee. The dehumidifying air conditioner is a key air conditioning device in the ventilation and air conditioning system, which can perform air treatment functions such as ventilation, dehumidification, humidification, and heating according to the internal thermal and humid environment requirements of the project. It can be regarded as the core component in the "lifeline". The stable operation of the unit is the premise for the stability of the "lifeline". Among them, the shell-and-tube condenser of the unit refrigeration system is an important component for realizing air cooling.
[0003] The condenser in the dehumidifying air conditioner is huge in volume and complex in system. High-pressure and low-pressure threshold parameters have been set before leaving the factory. Although the equipment manufacturer has configured relevant protection devices, their main purpose is to stop the machine in time to protect the equipment from damage or safety accidents when the equipment fails. However, for project guarantee, once the equipment fails and stops, it will seriously affect the air environment inside the project. At the same time, if a failure occurs during operation, it usually requires the equipment manufacturer to send professional personnel to the site for troubleshooting and repair. Not only does the repair take a long time, but in severe cases, it will also affect the completion of the wartime guarantee task. Therefore, carrying out research on fault warning and autonomous repair of dehumidifying air conditioner units to avoid or reduce the sudden shutdown of the units due to faults and other reasons, and to ensure the stable operation of the units and the ventilation and air conditioning system, is of great significance for improving the combat effectiveness of protective engineering.
[0004] To ensure the stable operation of the unit and the ventilation and air-conditioning system, the structure of the dehumidifying air-conditioning system is improved. A new water pump and a detachable plate heat exchanger are added. A primary closed pure water circulation is composed of a shell-and-tube condenser, a water pump 1, and a detachable plate heat exchanger. Using pure water for closed circulation can effectively avoid the formation of scale in the shell-and-tube condenser, and further avoid equipment corrosion caused by scale. A secondary open mechanical water circulation is composed of a detachable plate heat exchanger, a water pump 2, and an air-conditioning water reservoir, which is used to take out the heat generated by the primary closed pure water circulation. Although scale will be generated in the detachable plate heat exchanger, the operator removes the scale in the detachable plate heat exchanger during equipment maintenance to maintain the heat dissipation efficiency of the cooling water circulation system. Therefore, it is very important to determine the maintenance time of the equipment. If only relying on maintenance personnel to judge faults by manually checking the operation parameters of the dehumidifying air-conditioning unit, not only is the judgment process very dependent on the professionalism of the maintenance personnel, but also the maintenance personnel need to frequently travel back and forth between the equipment rooms of the dehumidifying air-conditioning unit, which is rather troublesome, and it is impossible to detect equipment faults in time, and the stable operation of the dehumidifying air-conditioning unit cannot be guaranteed. Summary of the Invention

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0039] Embodiment 1:
[0040] Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 3 As shown, the structure of the old dehumidifying air conditioner unit composed of a shell-and-tube condenser, a water pump, and an air conditioner water reservoir is transformed.

The primary closed pure water circulation consists of a shell-and-tube condenser, a water pump 1, and a detachable plate heat exchanger. The secondary open mechanical water circulation consists of a detachable plate heat exchanger, a water pump 2, and an air conditioner water reservoir. The primary closed pure water circulation takes out the heat in the shell-and-tube condenser through the circulating pure water, and then exchanges and takes out the heat of the pure water through the detachable plate heat exchanger, avoiding the generation of scale in the shell-and-tube condenser, and the detachable plate heat exchanger can be disassembled to remove the scale therein, maintaining the overall stable operation of the system. A circulating cooling fault warning system for a dehumidifying air conditioner system is set up to monitor and judge whether the overall system fails.
