Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of high-voltage frequency converters, and particularly relates to a frequency converter with a water cooling module and a water cooling method. BACKGROUND
[0002] Heat dissipation of a high-voltage frequency converter is a key link to ensure safe, efficient and long-life operation of the high-voltage frequency converter. The root cause of heat generation is energy loss of power devices and circuit elements, and an effective heat dissipation system can not only avoid failure of the elements due to high temperature, but also improve reliability and stability of the equipment. Traditional cooling technologies often use air cooling and liquid cooling, but the air cooling has poor heat dissipation capacity and is difficult to meet the heat dissipation requirement of the high-voltage frequency converter, and when the liquid cooling is used, pipeline arrangement, condensate water and influence on electrical elements also increase the difficulty in use.
[0003] The patent with the publication number CN214046488U discloses an air-water cooling device special for high-efficiency and low-noise high-voltage frequency converters, which comprises an electrical chamber in which a high-voltage frequency converter is installed, underground air shunting chambers, underground cooling chambers and underground water pools are arranged below the electrical chamber, a first cold air pipeline is arranged at an air outlet of the underground cooling chamber, a second cold air pipeline is arranged on the underground water pool, a first fan is arranged in the first cold air pipeline, and a second fan is arranged in the second cold air pipeline. The utility model adopts a closed cycle cooling mode, sets the high-voltage frequency converter in the sealed electrical chamber, and sets the fan in the underground cold air pipeline, thereby effectively solving the influence of the outdoor environment on the high-voltage frequency converter, improving the sound insulation effect and reducing the noise volume; meanwhile, a temperature sensor is arranged to control the rotating speed of the fan, to accelerate the circulation of hot air, and the underground cooling chamber and the underground water pool are used to cool the hot air.
[0004] The existing technology has the following defects:
[0005] The air-water cooling mode is used to cool the electrical chamber of the high-voltage frequency converter by introducing cold air, but the cold air entering the electrical chamber will form condensate water at non-heating parts such as the cabinet body and the ceiling, and the dripping and accumulation of the condensate water will have adverse effects on the operation of the high-voltage frequency converter. Even if a drying agent is added to the air circulation, condensate water will still be generated if the drying agent is not replaced in time. In addition, the specific heat capacity of air is relatively low, and a large-power fan is needed to transport a large amount of air, so the existing technology lacks a relatively safe and low-energy-consumption cooling mode for the high-voltage frequency converter. SUMMARY
[0006] The application provides a frequency converter with a water cooling module and a water cooling method, which can solve the technical problem of lack of a relatively safe and low-energy-consumption cooling mode for the high-voltage frequency converter in the prior art.

[0063] Embodiment:
[0064] Please refer to Figures 1 to 8 , Figures 1 to 8 The figure shows an embodiment of the present application.
[0065] The embodiment provides a frequency converter with a water cooling module, which comprises a frequency converter unit cabinet 4 and a cooling unit cabinet 5, and further comprises:
[0066] The heat exchange channel 6 is arranged above the frequency converter unit cabinet 4 and the cooling unit cabinet 5;
[0067] The three cooling pools 3 are arranged at intervals in the interior of the cooling unit cabinet 5;
[0068] The six heat exchange rods 1 are connected between the heat exchange channel 6 and the frequency converter unit cabinet 4, the heat exchange rod 1 is filled with composite phase change filler 106, one end of the heat exchange rod 1 is in thermal connection with the heating electrical element in the frequency converter unit cabinet 4, the end of the heat exchange rod 1 penetrating into the heat exchange channel 6 is in liquid cooling circulation connection with the cooling pool 3, and the circulation pump 2 is connected between the heat exchange rod 1 and the cooling pool 3.
[0069] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 3 , the heat exchange rod 1 has an elongated cylinder 101, by replacing the elongated cylinder 101 of different lengths to adapt to the insertion depth of the heat exchange rod 1 in the frequency converter unit cabinet 4, to ensure that it can be correctly connected to the heating electrical element, while the elongated cylinder 101 can be a straight cylinder, or can be set as a curved customized cylinder type according to the arrangement of the heating electrical element.
[0070] It should be noted that the cooling unit cabinet 5 and the frequency converter unit cabinet 4 can be separately arranged or temperature insulated, Figure 1 only as a layout diagram, not necessarily close to the setting; the technical solution of the embodiment is significantly different from the conventional cooling method, which discards the conventional cognition of directly introducing the cold source into the heating electrical element for cooling, but innovatively uses the phase change material to conduct the heat of the heating electrical element out, and contacts the cold source in the heat exchange channel 6, which is an independent space, to avoid the generation of condensate water in the frequency converter unit cabinet 4.
[0071] Through the above technical solution, the heat exchange rod 1 is used, and the composite phase change filler 106 is used as the relay conduction of heat, which avoids the low-temperature cooling liquid from entering the frequency converter unit cabinet 4, improves the operation safety of the frequency converter, and in addition to the conventional cooling liquid circulation power, no additional high-power equipment is needed, reducing energy consumption.
[0072] As a more preferred embodiment, as shown in Figures 3 to 5 , the heat exchange rod 1 has:
[0073] The heat exchange part 103 is arranged at one end of the heat exchange rod 1 penetrating into the frequency converter unit cabinet 4;
[0074] The cladding layer 104 is connected between the heat exchange part 103 and the heating electrical element, and the cladding layer 104 is in contact with the heating electrical element;
[0075] The cooling part 102 is arranged at one end of the heat exchange rod 1 penetrating into the heat exchange channel 6;
[0076] The liquid pipe 105 is spirally arranged in the cooling part 102, and the liquid pipe 105 is in communication with the cooling pool 3, and specifically as shown in Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 8 , the first liquid outlet 1052 is connected with the second liquid inlet 3021 of the uppermost cooling pool 3, and the first liquid inlet 1051 is connected with the second liquid outlet 3024.
[0077] The cooling part 102 is made by embedding and pouring the liquid pipe 105, the heat exchange part 103 and the cooling part 102 are threadedly connected with the extension cylinder 101, and the thread is coated with heat-conducting silicone grease during the thread connection, and the composite phase change filler 106 in a solid state is pre-filled in the extension cylinder 101, the cooling part 102 and the heat exchange part 103 during the combination. It should be noted that, as shown in Figure 5 When the composite phase change filler 106 melts, a buffer zone 107 is formed in the heat exchange rod 1 to adapt to the thermal expansion of the composite phase change filler 106.
[0078] Through the above technical scheme, the cladding layer 104 is used to increase the contact area between the heat exchange rod 1 and the heating electrical element, and the heat conduction efficiency is improved.
[0079] As a more preferred embodiment, the composite phase change filler 106 is a paraffin-graphene composite filler.
[0080] For example, 5% by weight of graphene nanosheets is added to paraffin and mixed, the inert carbon structure of graphene can inhibit the oxidative decomposition of paraffin at high temperatures (pure paraffin will produce carbon chain rupture when used at a temperature above 120°C for a long time), and at the same time, paraffin is a non-polar organic substance and graphene is an inert carbon material, neither of which will have an electrochemical reaction with copper pipes, and no additional corrosion-resistant coating is needed. Compared with the traditional heat pipe using water or ammonia as the phase change material, the paraffin-graphene composite filler (5% by weight of graphene) has a higher thermal conductivity (about 1.5 W / m·K-3.0 W / m·K) and a higher latent heat (about 180 kj / kg-220 kj / kg). It should be noted that when graphene nanosheets are added to paraffin, the dispersibility of graphene should be considered, and ultrasonic-assisted blending can be used if necessary to avoid agglomeration and cause uneven thermal conductivity. The filler should be tested for thermal conductivity before filling.
[0081] Through the above technical scheme, the paraffin-graphene composite filler is used as the phase change filler, which has higher latent heat and heat storage density, and has strong thermal conductivity.
[0082] As a more preferred embodiment, the cladding layer 104 is a thermosetting heat-conducting and insulating composite material.
[0083] For example, epoxy-imidazole + 20% boron nitride + 30% aluminum oxide , The solidification starting temperature is 40-50°C, and it is plastic at room temperature. When the temperature is raised to above 40°C, the imidazole ring is opened to initiate crosslinking of the epoxy group, forming a three-dimensional network, and the flaky hexagonal boron nitride forms a heat-conducting path in the resin. By adjusting the ratio of boron nitride and aluminum oxide, the room temperature plasticity can be maintained and the surface thermal conductivity can be improved.
[0084] By the technical scheme, the wrapping layer of the thermosetting heat-conducting insulating composite material is adopted, so that plastic coating installation at normal temperature is facilitated, and stable connection performance is provided after high-temperature solidification after operation and heat generation.
[0085] As a preferred embodiment, as shown in Figures 6 to 8 The cooling pool 3 further includes:
[0086] The pool body 301 is filled with cooling water;
[0087] The cooling pipe 302 has a second liquid inlet 3021, a third liquid outlet 3022, a cooling section 3023, and a second liquid outlet 3024. The cooling section 3023 is arranged in the pool body 301 and is immersed in the cooling water. The third liquid outlet 3022 is connected to the liquid pipe 105 or the second liquid inlet 3021 of another cooling pool 3, and the second liquid outlet 3024 is connected to the liquid pipe 105.
[0088] The thermoelectric generator 303 is connected between the second liquid inlet 3021 and the pool body 301, and generates electricity based on the temperature difference between the second liquid inlet 3021 and the pool body 301.
[0089] The logic solenoid valve 304 is connected between the second liquid inlet 3021 and the cooling section 3023.
[0090] When there is a temperature difference between the second liquid inlet 3021 and the pool body 301, the thermoelectric generator 303 generates electricity, keeping the logic solenoid valve 304 open.
[0091] When there is no temperature difference between the second liquid inlet 3021 and the pool body 301, the thermoelectric generator 303 is powered off, keeping the logic solenoid valve 304 closed.
[0092] The specific liquid connection is shown in Figure 2 The skilled person can adaptively add other conventional liquid control elements to optimize the liquid circuit.
[0093] It should be noted that, as Figure 6The logic solenoid valve 304 does not control the on-off of the third liquid outlet 3022, which may cause the heated cooling liquid to enter the three cooling pools 3 simultaneously in actual use, but because the three cooling pools 3 are different distances from the circulating pump 2, the flow rate of the cooling pool 3 far from the circulating pump 2 will be significantly lower than that of the cooling pool 3 close to the circulating pump 2, so the cooling pool 3 closest to the circulating pump 2 will reach thermal saturation (no temperature difference between cooling water and cooling liquid) first. (Note that in this embodiment, all temperature differences mentioned between cooling water and cooling liquid are judged by whether the temperature difference power generation sheet 303 is driven to generate electricity, not the absolute same temperature.) In a more compact cooling unit cabinet 5 layout, in order to realize the hierarchical use of the cooling pool 3, the logic solenoid valve 304 can be replaced by a three-way solenoid valve to control the on-off of the third liquid outlet 3022 and the cooling section 3023.
[0094] By the above technical solution, the temperature difference power generation sheet 303 is used as a judgment unit for whether the cooling pool 3 is used, avoiding the heated cooling liquid from entering the cooling pool 3 that is already high temperature, resulting in the inability to cool down, and improving the reliability of the entire cooling system.
[0095] As a more preferred embodiment, as shown in Figure 2 The above cooling pipe 302 is in communication with the liquid pipe 105 and the circulating pump 2 to form a closed circulation liquid path, and the closed circulation liquid path is filled with cooling liquid, and the cooling liquid is a mixed liquid of water-based sodium gluconate and amino-trimethylene phosphonic acid.
[0096] It should be noted that in the prior art, most of the water-based cooling liquid is selected from pure water, deionized water, distilled water, etc., and a large number of water purification units are provided. However, after using such water for a period of time, metal ions will be released from metal pipes, especially copper pipes and aluminum pipes, causing the water to become weakly acidic, thereby accelerating the corrosion of the pipes and the formation of scale. In this embodiment, a mixed liquid of sodium gluconate (0.5%) and amino-trimethylene phosphonic acid (30ppm) is used to improve the high-temperature resistance, scale resistance, and corrosion resistance of the cooling liquid.
[0097] By the above technical solution, the closed circulation liquid path is filled with a mixed liquid of sodium gluconate and amino-trimethylene phosphonic acid, reducing the risk of corrosion of the cooling liquid on the pipes and acidification of the cooling liquid, improving the scale resistance of the circulation liquid path, and reducing the maintenance requirements of the cooling liquid circulation liquid path.
[0098] As a more preferred embodiment, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 7 The above cooling pool 3 further comprises:
[0099] The liquid supplementing port 305 is arranged at the top of the pool body 301 and is used to connect an external water source 7 (exemplarily, a municipal water supply pipeline);
[0100] The drain 306 is arranged at the bottom of the pool body 301 and is used to connect the waste water pool 8 (for example, a municipal sewage pipe). Since the cooling water is only used as heat absorption and does not cause pollution, the cooling water can directly meet the discharge conditions;
[0101] When the thermoelectric generator 303 does not generate electricity, the liquid supplement port 305 pumps in the external water source 7, and the drain 306 discharges the cooling water in the cooling pool 3.
[0102] Through the above technical solution, the external water source 7 is used to replace the cooling water in the cooling pool 3. When the cooling water cannot be cooled due to temperature rise, the cooling water can be quickly replaced, and the self-maintenance performance is improved.
[0103] The embodiment also provides a water cooling method of a frequency converter with a water cooling module. The frequency converter with the water cooling module is used, and the method further includes the following steps:
[0104] Step S10: The heat-emitting electrical element is covered with the coating layer 104. After the heat-emitting electrical element is heated and rises in temperature, the coating layer 104 is solidified. The heat emitted by the heat-emitting electrical element is transmitted to the composite phase change filler 106 through the coating layer 104 and is stored in the composite phase change filler 106.
[0105] Step S20: The circulating pump 2 is started to flow the closed circulating liquid path. The cooling liquid in the cooling pipe 302 is pumped into the liquid pipe 105, and the heat in the composite phase change filler 106 is taken away through the liquid pipe 105.
[0106] Step S30: The heated cooling liquid is circulated back to the cooling pipe 302 and flows into the cooling pool 3. The cooling water is used to cool the cooling liquid in the cooling section 3023.
[0107] Through the above technical solution, the water cooling-liquid cooling-phase change material triple heat exchange system is used to separate the heat source and the cooling source. The safety of the operating environment of the electrical element is improved, and the maintenance cost of different heat exchange systems is reduced.
[0108] As a more preferred embodiment, the above step S30 further includes:
[0109] Step S40: When the temperature of the cooling water is equal to the temperature of the cooling liquid in the second liquid inlet 3021, the thermoelectric generator 303 is powered off, and the logic electromagnetic valve 304 is closed. The heated cooling liquid flows into another cooling pool 3 through the third liquid outlet 3022 and is circulated.
[0110] Through the above technical solution, the thermoelectric generator 303 is used to switch the single cooling pool 3. The multiple cooling pools 3 are used to cool the closed circulating liquid path, and the continuity of cooling is improved.
[0111] As a more preferred embodiment, the above step S40 further includes:
[0112] Step S50: When the logic solenoid valve 304 is closed, the liquid supplement port 305 is connected to the external water source 7, and the liquid discharge port 306 discharges the heated cooling water.
[0113] Through the above technical scheme, the active water replacement after the cooling pool 3 is closed is adopted, and the efficiency of the overheating restart of the cooling pool 3 is improved.
[0114] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited to this. Any person skilled in the art can easily think of changes or replacements within the technical range disclosed in the present application, which should be covered within the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
