Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of refrigeration system monitoring technology, and in particular to a method and system for monitoring the operation of intelligent refrigeration equipment. Background Technology
[0002] A refrigeration system is a device that uses external energy sources, such as electrical energy, thermal energy, or mechanical energy, to transfer heat from a cooler object or space to a warmer environment. Its core structure includes a compressor, condenser, high-pressure receiver-and-discharge tank, evaporator, and expansion valve.
[0003] The condenser and high-pressure receiver are crucial components on the high-pressure side of a refrigeration system. The high-pressure receiver serves as a buffer for liquid storage and provides a stable liquid column to the throttling device; its operating status directly affects the stability and safety of the liquid supply. In existing technologies, the condenser and high-pressure receiver are generally monitored separately and in isolation, which can easily lead to errors caused by individual monitoring. Furthermore, the monitoring of the high-pressure receiver relies primarily on passive measurements and manual judgment, resulting in low efficiency and accuracy in anomaly detection.

This avoids misjudgments caused by relying on the operation data of a single device. Subsequent data processing is only performed when the coordinated operation data of both devices indicates normal operation. When normal operation is determined, steady-state data extraction is performed, specifically by extracting the steady-state operation data of the high-pressure liquid storage tank based on the coordinated operation data, generating an operation monitoring stimulus based on the steady-state operation data, and obtaining stimulus feedback data. By setting an operation monitoring stimulus triggered based on the steady-state operation data, stable operation is ensured. Monitoring and stimulation are only performed under stable conditions to avoid affecting the normal operation of the equipment. Compared with the interference and uncertainty caused by the operation stimulation under fluctuating operating conditions, the data obtained after operation monitoring stimulation under stable operating conditions can more accurately determine whether there is an anomaly. The passive monitoring in the prior art relies too much on the actual situation, while the operation monitoring stimulation of this application has more adjustable space, and can make targeted stimulation for the actual operation to obtain feedback data after the stimulation is applied. Based on the stimulation feedback data, it is determined whether the high-pressure liquid storage tank is abnormal. If it is determined to be abnormal, a refrigeration equipment abnormality reminder is generated, thereby improving the flexibility and reliability of operation monitoring. Attached Figure Description

[0032] In one embodiment, a terminal is provided, the terminal being used to: acquire coordinated operation data of the condenser and the high-pressure liquid storage tank, and determine whether the operation is normal based on the coordinated operation data; if the determination is normal, extract steady-state operation data of the high-pressure liquid storage tank based on the coordinated operation data; generate operation monitoring excitation based on the steady-state operation data, and acquire excitation feedback data; determine whether the high-pressure liquid storage tank is abnormal based on the excitation feedback data, and if the determination is normal, generate a refrigeration equipment abnormality alert.
[0033] The terminal may be, but is not limited to, various personal computers, laptops, smartphones, tablets, and portable wearable devices.
[0034] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, a method for monitoring the operation of an intelligent refrigeration device is provided, the method comprising: Step S100: Obtain the coordinated operation data of the condenser and the high-pressure liquid storage tank, and determine whether the operation is normal based on the coordinated operation data; Step S200: If the determination is yes, extract the steady-state operation data of the high-pressure liquid storage tank based on the collaborative operation data; Step S300: Generate operation monitoring excitation based on the steady-state operation data, and obtain excitation feedback data; Step S400: Determine whether the high-pressure liquid storage tank is abnormal based on the excitation feedback data. If the determination is yes, generate an abnormality reminder for the refrigeration equipment.
[0035] In this application, the normality of operation is determined by acquiring the coordinated operation data of the condenser and the high-pressure liquid storage tank. The coordinated operation of the condenser and the high-pressure liquid storage tank is used to identify operational anomalies, avoiding misjudgments caused by relying on the operation data of a single device. Subsequent data processing is only performed when the coordinated operation data of both devices indicates normal operation. When normal operation is determined, steady-state data extraction is performed. Specifically, steady-state operation data of the high-pressure liquid storage tank is extracted based on the coordinated operation data, and an operation monitoring stimulus is generated based on the steady-state operation data. Stimulus feedback data is then acquired. By setting an operation monitoring stimulus triggered based on steady-state operation data, monitoring is ensured only when the operation is stable. The stimulation method avoids interference with the normal operation of the equipment due to monitoring. Compared with the interference and uncertainty caused by the stimulation under fluctuating operating conditions, the data obtained after the stimulation under steady-state operating data can more accurately determine whether there is an anomaly. When it is determined that there is no anomaly, the equipment can operate normally. The passive monitoring in the prior art relies too much on the actual situation, while the stimulation method of this application has more adjustable space. It can perform targeted stimulation for the actual operation to obtain feedback data after the stimulation is applied, and determine whether the high-pressure liquid storage tank is abnormal based on the stimulation feedback data. If it is determined to be abnormal, a refrigeration equipment anomaly reminder is generated, thereby improving the flexibility and reliability of operation monitoring.
[0036] In one embodiment, the collaborative operation data includes condenser outlet pressure, liquid tank top pressure, liquid tank top temperature, and liquid tank level; Step S100: Obtain the coordinated operation data of the condenser and the high-pressure liquid storage tank, and determine whether the operation is normal based on the coordinated operation data, including: Step S110: Calculate the pressure difference between the condenser outlet pressure and the pressure at the top of the liquid storage tank; Step S120: Calculate the unit temperature change rate based on the temperature at the top of the storage tank, and calculate the unit pressure change rate of the pressure at the top of the storage tank and the unit liquid level change rate of the storage tank. Step S130: Select the cooperative steady-state time period based on the unit pressure change rate, the unit temperature change rate, the unit liquid level change rate, and the pressure difference; Step S140: Calculate the tank top saturation temperature deviation and condenser outlet temperature deviation during the cooperative steady-state time period; Step S150: Determine whether the operation is normal based on the deviation of the tank top saturation temperature and the deviation of the condenser outlet temperature.
[0037] In this embodiment, the pressure difference is obtained by subtracting the pressure at the condenser outlet from the pressure at the top of the liquid storage tank. This pressure difference is used for subsequent screening of the coordinated steady-state time period. Next, the unit pressure change rate, the unit temperature change rate, and the unit liquid level change rate are calculated respectively.
[0038] pass Calculate the pressure at the top of the storage tank. unit pressure change rate Where t is the time index. (This is achieved through...) Calculate the liquid level in the storage tank unit liquid level change rate .
[0039] The coordinated steady-state time period represents the state when the condenser and high-pressure storage tank are operating relatively stably. Before selecting the coordinated steady-state time period, standard pressure change rate, standard temperature change rate, standard liquid level change rate, and standard pressure difference are preset. For example, the standard pressure change rate, standard temperature change rate, standard liquid level change rate, and standard pressure difference are 0.003 MPa / min, 0.2℃ / min, 1% / min, and 0.1 MPa, respectively. The % in 1% / min represents the liquid level range percentage.
[0040] When the following conditions are met simultaneously: the unit pressure change rate is less than or equal to the standard pressure change rate, the unit temperature change rate is less than or equal to the standard temperature change rate, the unit liquid level change rate is less than or equal to the standard liquid level change rate, and the pressure difference is less than or equal to the standard pressure difference, the corresponding time period is set as the cooperative steady-state time period.
[0041] For example, if, during the period from 10:41 to 10:52, the unit pressure change rate is less than or equal to the standard pressure change rate, the unit temperature change rate is less than or equal to the standard temperature change rate, the unit liquid level change rate is less than or equal to the standard liquid level change rate, and the pressure difference is less than or equal to the standard pressure difference, then the period from 10:41 to 10:52 is designated as the cooperative steady-state period.
[0042] Next, the deviation of the tank top saturation temperature and the deviation of the condenser outlet temperature are calculated during the coordinated steady-state time period; and the operation is judged to be normal based on the deviation of the tank top saturation temperature and the deviation of the condenser outlet temperature.
[0043] Therefore, in this embodiment, the judgment on whether the operation is normal is only made when the coordinated operation between the condenser and the high-pressure liquid storage tank is relatively stable. This setting can filter out the problem of large judgment errors caused by making judgments during start-up and shutdown, large valve position adjustment, or when the load has just changed.
[0044] In one embodiment, step S120, calculating the unit temperature change rate based on the temperature at the top of the storage tank, includes: Step S121: Find the tank top saturation temperature corresponding to the top pressure of the liquid storage tank by consulting the refrigerant property table; Step S122: Perform sensor constant bias correction on the temperature at the top of the storage tank based on the pressure at the top of the storage tank and the saturation temperature at the top of the tank to generate the corrected temperature at the top of the tank; Step S123: Calculate the unit temperature change rate of the corrected temperature at the top of the tank.
[0045] In this embodiment, constant bias calibration of the sensor is required to obtain accurate data. The refrigerant property table, also known as the refrigerant PT table or refrigerant property database, is preset. The table lookup process uses absolute pressure. If the field pressure is gauge pressure, it is converted to absolute pressure by adding it to the local atmospheric pressure before looking up the table.
[0046] First, look up the table to get the pressure at the top of the storage tank. The saturation temperature of the refrigerant at the top of the tank, and then through... Calculate long-term deviation ,in, Temperature at the top of the storage tank. Indicates the pressure at the top of the storage tank The saturation temperature of the refrigerant at the top of the tank. Next, the long-term deviations mentioned above are taken. The median is used to obtain the temperature bias. Finally, the temperature at the top of the storage tank was... Subtract the temperature bias Obtain the corrected temperature at the top of the tank Finally, through The unit temperature change rate that generates the corrected temperature at the top of the tank .
[0047] In one embodiment, the coordinated operation data further includes the condenser outlet temperature; in step S140, the calculation method for the tank top saturation temperature deviation and the condenser outlet temperature deviation during the coordinated steady-state time period is as follows: First, calculate the tank top saturation temperature deviation using the following formula. : ,in, To calibrate the temperature at the top of the tank, Indicates the pressure at the top of the storage tank The saturation temperature of the refrigerant at the top of the tank.
[0048] The tank top saturation temperature deviation represents the difference between the temperature at the top of the tank and the theoretical temperature. The top of the storage tank is a gas phase accumulation zone. If the operation is normal, there are no non-condensable gases, and the tank is indeed in two-phase equilibrium, then the top gas phase temperature should be consistent with the saturation temperature obtained from the absolute pressure at the top. Under normal circumstances, the measured temperature should be close to the saturation temperature. The measured temperature refers to the tank top calibration temperature, and the saturation temperature refers to the tank top saturation temperature. If the difference between the tank top calibration temperature and the tank top saturation temperature is too large, there may be non-condensable gases or abnormal measuring points, in which case the operation is considered abnormal.
[0049] Next, the condenser outlet temperature deviation is calculated using the following formula. : ,in, To choose the larger of a and b, The condenser outlet temperature, Indicates the pressure at the condenser outlet. The saturation temperature of the refrigerant.
[0050] in, and All of these were obtained by consulting the refrigerant property table.
[0051] Under healthy operating conditions, the condenser should output sufficiently subcooled pure liquid. If the outlet temperature is higher than the saturation temperature, it indicates that the condenser may be carrying vapor or has not completely condensed, resulting in an overheated outlet. When the condenser outlet is liquid, the condenser outlet temperature... It should be below the saturation temperature When the condenser outlet temperature deviates When the value is positive, there is a high probability that the outlet is overheated, which may indicate a malfunction.
[0052] In one embodiment, step S150: determining whether the operation is normal based on the tank top saturation temperature deviation and the condenser outlet temperature deviation includes: Step S151: Determine whether the deviation of the tank top saturation temperature is within the first error threshold range, and whether the deviation of the condenser outlet temperature is within the second error threshold range; Step S152: If the judgment is yes, the operation is considered normal; if the judgment is no, the operation is considered abnormal.
[0053] In this embodiment, both the first error threshold range and the second error threshold range are preset. For example, the second error threshold range is greater than or equal to 1°C. Specifically, theoretically, it should... When the value is positive, it is immediately determined to be abnormal. However, in practice, due to uncertainties caused by measurement errors during the data acquisition phase, the condenser outlet temperature cannot be 100% accurate, including... Although it is pre-stored, it cannot be guaranteed to be 100% accurate. Therefore, when When the value is a small positive value of 0.3℃-0.5℃, it is likely just due to measurement and registration errors, and not a real malfunction or abnormality of the condenser.
[0054] Therefore, to avoid misjudgment, judgment ranges of 0℃-0.5℃ and 0.5℃-1℃ are set. When the value falls within the range of 0℃-0.5℃, it is not directly judged as abnormal, but rather recorded and marked. Simultaneously, a retest is scheduled, and a comprehensive judgment is made based on the deviation of the tank top saturation temperature. When When the value falls within the range of 0.5℃-1℃, record and mark it, and simultaneously set up a retest. If multiple exceedances occur during the retest, it is determined that the abnormality is caused by excessive outlet heat. When the value is greater than 1℃, the temperature difference is large, so it can be directly judged as abnormal.
[0055] Similarly, the first error threshold range is greater than 2℃. That is, when the difference between the corrected temperature at the top of the tank and the saturation temperature at the top of the tank is greater than 2℃, it can be determined as normal. If it exceeds this range, it is determined as abnormal.
[0056] It should be noted that the judgment ranges of 0℃-0.5℃, 0.5℃-1℃, greater than 1℃, and greater than 2℃ are merely examples for ease of understanding and are not intended to be limiting. Those skilled in the art should set thresholds that conform to actual operating conditions based on actual sensor errors and operating conditions.
[0057] If the deviation of the tank top saturation temperature is not within the first error threshold range, or the deviation of the condenser outlet temperature is not within the second error threshold range, then an operational abnormality is determined. When an operational abnormality occurs, a maintenance command is generated, which instructs maintenance personnel to perform fault repair on the refrigeration system.
[0058] In one embodiment, in step S200, when extracting the steady-state operation data of the high-pressure liquid storage tank based on the collaborative operation data, data related to the high-pressure liquid storage tank is extracted from the collaborative operation data based on the collaborative steady-state time period selected in step S130, which is the steady-state operation data.
[0059] In one embodiment, the operation monitoring stimulus includes a set limiting temperature and a controlled thermal pulse; Step S300: Generate operation monitoring stimulus based on the steady-state operation data and obtain stimulus feedback data, including: Step S310: Extract the temperature change range from the steady-state operating data, and set a limiting temperature based on the temperature change range; Step S320: Apply a controlled thermal pulse to the middle of the tank wall of the high-pressure liquid storage tank, and constrain the maximum rise in tank wall temperature to not exceed the limit temperature; Step S330: Obtain excitation feedback data after applying the controlled thermal pulse.
[0060] In this embodiment, the steady-state operating data includes the temperature data of the high-pressure liquid storage tank during use. Therefore, the temperature change range can be extracted from the steady-state operating data. When setting the limiting temperature, the temperature change range of the current operating state and the historical temperature range need to be considered. First, based on a preset tank temperature sensor, the temperature change range of the high-pressure liquid storage tank is detected within the cooperative steady-state time period. Then, the historical temperature range of the tank during its normal operating state in previous periods is obtained. Generally, the limiting temperature should be within the temperature change range or the historical temperature range. This setting ensures that the temperature change caused by the current excitation test has occurred in the previous normal operating state of the high-pressure liquid storage tank, thereby avoiding the excitation test affecting the normal operation of the high-pressure liquid storage tank.
[0061] The limiting temperature is generally set as multiple candidate temperatures. After obtaining the temperature change range, the median of the temperature change range is taken, and the candidate temperature with the smallest difference from the median is selected as the current limiting temperature. This ensures that the temperature change brought about by the current excitation test is as close as possible to the current working state, so as to minimize the impact of the excitation test on the high-pressure liquid storage tank.
[0062] In step S320, a controlled thermal pulse lasting 1 to 3 seconds is applied to the middle of the wall of the high-pressure liquid storage tank so that the maximum temperature rise of the tank wall does not exceed a preset limit temperature. For example, the limit temperature is 3°C.
[0063] In this step, a controlled thermal pulse is applied using a flexible thin-film heating element with a built-in thermistor. This flexible thin-film heating element has PWM control functionality. The flexible thin-film heating element is typically placed in the region of the high-pressure liquid storage tank near the height where the liquid is constantly wetted, such as on the outer wall of the middle section of the tank, to enhance liquid phase sensitivity.
[0064] The controlled heat pulse is typically a small heat pulse lasting 1 to 3 seconds. However, for particularly thick tanks, it can be extended to five to eight seconds if necessary. While applying the controlled heat pulse, an upper limit constraint on temperature rise and a safety termination condition are set to limit the temperature rise of the outer wall to no more than three degrees Celsius. Once the pressure rise rate exceeds the set threshold or the outer wall temperature rise exceeds three degrees Celsius, heating is immediately terminated and the test is recorded as invalid.
[0065] Specifically, the duration of the controlled thermal pulse is between 1 and 3 seconds, and the specific duration can be set according to the actual wall thickness of the high-pressure liquid storage tank. For example, in this embodiment, the high-pressure liquid storage tank has a typical carbon steel wall with an actual thickness of 4 mm. Generally, the thickness of a high-pressure liquid storage tank is 3-6 mm. Metals diffuse heat relatively quickly, and a small thermal pulse of 1 to 3 seconds is sufficient to cause a measurable change in the inner wall temperature of the high-pressure liquid storage tank.
[0066] For example, the thermal diffusivity of steel for The pulse duration is set to 2 seconds, and the thermal penetration depth is [not specified]. Approximation of a semi-infinite body After substituting the values, the thermal penetration depth can be calculated. The value is approximately 4.9 mm. That is, a 2-second thermal pulse can penetrate 4.9 mm. Therefore, based on the actual tank wall thickness, a pulse duration of 2-3 seconds can be optimally set to ensure the thermal pulse can act on the interior of the high-pressure storage tank. It should be noted that this estimate is an exemplary evaluation on an order of magnitude basis; in practice, precise calculations and settings of the thermal pulse should be performed based on wall thickness, insulation, and boundary heat transfer.
[0067] In step S330, the excitation feedback data is the pressure sequence and temperature sequence at the top of the storage tank obtained by synchronous acquisition at a sampling frequency of not less than 50 Hz. The data acquisition ends when the pressure and temperature basically drop back to the level before the pulse.
[0068] When collecting the pressure sequence at the top of the storage tank, a strain gauge pressure transmitter must be used and installed at the gas phase pressure tap at the top of the high-pressure storage tank. The temperature sequence at the top of the storage tank is obtained by a temperature detection sensor pre-installed in the high-pressure storage tank. The temperature detection sensor includes a thin-wire thermocouple, preferably installed in the gas phase flow field of the inner top space of the high-pressure storage tank.
[0069] In one embodiment, the excitation feedback data includes a pressure sequence at the top of the storage tank and a temperature sequence at the top of the storage tank; Step S400: Determine whether the high-pressure liquid storage tank is abnormal based on the excitation feedback data, including: Step S410: Generate an excitation following index based on the pressure sequence and temperature sequence at the top of the storage tank; Step S420: Calculate the pressure drop time based on the pressure sequence at the top of the storage tank and the preset pressure baseline at the top of the tank; Step S430: Determine whether the high-pressure liquid storage tank is abnormal based on the excitation follow-up index and the pressure drop time.
[0070] In this embodiment, in order to more accurately determine operational anomalies, a dual judgment threshold is set. The first threshold is to generate an excitation follow-up index based on the pressure sequence and temperature sequence at the top of the storage tank. The second threshold is to calculate the pressure drop time based on the pressure sequence at the top of the storage tank and a preset tank top pressure baseline. Finally, the excitation follow-up index and the pressure drop time are used to determine whether the high-pressure storage tank is abnormal.
[0071] In one embodiment, step S410: generating an excitation following index based on the pressure sequence and temperature sequence at the top of the storage tank includes: Step S411: Calculate the measured following slope of the top pressure of the storage tank to the top temperature of the storage tank during the pulse segment based on the pressure sequence and temperature sequence at the top of the storage tank. Step S412: Obtain the saturation following slope that the refrigerant should have when it is in two-phase saturated equilibrium; Step S413: Divide the measured following slope by the saturated following slope to generate the excitation following degree index.
[0072] In this embodiment, the measured following slope refers to the instantaneous slope of pressure versus temperature actually measured during the controlled thermal pulse. It is obtained by performing a least-squares linear fit on the pairs of points (Ttp(t), Ptp(t)) within the pulse segment. Specifically, with the temperature sequence Ttp(t) at the top of the storage tank as the independent variable and the pressure sequence Ptp(t) at the top of the storage tank as the dependent variable, a straight line is fitted using the least-squares method, and its slope is defined as the measured following slope. .
[0073] The saturation following slope The calculation is as follows: Taking the average pressure and temperature before the pulse as the representative point of the operating condition, the pressure-to-temperature sensitivity under two-phase saturated equilibrium conditions is found in the refrigerant's PT table near the representative point. This sensitivity is the saturation following slope. In this embodiment, the pressure-to-temperature slope of the two-phase saturation curve is pre-stored in the PT property library, so the saturation following slope can be obtained by looking up the table.
[0074] Therefore, by dividing the measured following slope, which represents the pressure-temperature sensitivity obtained during a controlled thermal pulse, by the pressure-temperature sensitivity under two-phase saturated equilibrium conditions, a dimensionless excitation following index is generated. This index is used to quantify the degree of fit to the saturated manifold during the application of the thermal pulse, thus avoiding the problem of direct numerical incomparability caused by differences in media or operating conditions.
[0075] Existing technologies mostly employ static methods to determine operational anomalies, such as supercooling, superheating, observation through a sight glass, or artificial venting tests. These methods suffer from large errors. In contrast, this embodiment adopts a completely opposite approach, applying an active stimulus to monitor operations and using least squares regression to obtain the measured following slope. This method is more noise-resistant than the time-differential method, more sensitive to anomalies such as slight mixing of non-condensable gases and an increase in the proportion of gas phase, and has higher accuracy.
[0076] In one embodiment, step S420: calculating the pressure drop time based on the pressure sequence at the top of the storage tank and a preset tank top pressure baseline includes: Step S421: Before applying the controlled thermal pulse, obtain the average value of the pressure at the top of the storage tank within a preset time window and set it as the baseline of the tank top pressure; Step S422: Determine the pressure peak value and the time of occurrence of the pressure peak value in the pressure sequence at the top of the storage tank; Step S423: Starting from the moment the peak occurs, search backwards for the time point in the pressure sequence at the top of the storage tank that first and continuously drops to a preset proportion of the pressure peak, and set the time difference between the searched time point and the moment the peak occurs as the pressure drop time.
[0077] In this embodiment, the preset time window is first set to 3 to 5 seconds. That is, the average pressure at the top of the storage tank is obtained over 3 to 5 seconds and set as the baseline pressure at the top of the tank.
[0078] Then, the peak pressure and the time of peak occurrence of the pressure sequence at the top of the storage tank are determined. Starting from the time of peak occurrence, a time point that meets the conditions is found. Specifically, the time point in the pressure sequence at the top of the storage tank where the pressure first and continuously decreases to a preset percentage of the peak pressure is found. The preset percentage is 10% of the peak pressure. Starting from the time of the peak pressure, the time point where the pressure increment first does not exceed the preset percentage of the peak pressure is found, and where the pressure increment remains not higher than the preset percentage for 0.5 seconds thereafter, is recorded as the time point when the pressure drop is achieved.
[0079] Therefore, after a short, controlled thermal pulse, the internal pressure of the high-pressure storage tank will first rise to the aforementioned pressure peak and then gradually decrease. A healthy two-phase region will rapidly absorb the disturbances caused by the thermal pulse through localized condensation / vaporization, and the pressure will quickly return to normal. However, the presence of non-condensable gases, excessively high gas volume fractions, or cavities will affect the pressure drop, making it slower. Furthermore, if the liquid path is restricted, the filter is clogged, or the valve position is improper, obstructing the path to restore the original state, it will also lead to a longer pressure drop time. Therefore, the pressure drop time is set as an indicator for judging whether there is an operational abnormality.
[0080] Therefore, when the pressure drop time is greater than the preset drop time, the high-pressure liquid storage tank is judged to be abnormal.
[0081] In one embodiment, step S430: determining whether the high-pressure storage tank is abnormal based on the excitation follow-up index and the pressure drop time includes: Step S431: Determine whether the incentive following index is less than a preset index threshold or whether the pressure fall-off time is greater than a preset fall-off time; Step S432: If the determination is yes, then the high-pressure liquid storage tank is determined to be abnormal; Step S433: If the result is negative, then the high-pressure liquid storage tank is considered to be normal.
[0082] In this embodiment, when the value of the excitation follow-up index is close to 1, it indicates that the current operating condition is consistent with the health status; when the value of the excitation follow-up index is significantly less than 1, it indicates that the proportion of non-condensable gas or gas phase is too high; when the value of the follow-up index is significantly greater than 1, a temperature measurement point lag occurs, reminding management personnel to check and verify the sensor. Therefore, when it is determined whether the excitation follow-up index is less than a preset threshold, the high-pressure liquid storage tank is judged to be abnormal.
[0083] For example, the preset index threshold is pre-set to 0.85 by those skilled in the art. The preset fallback time is set to 60 seconds.
[0084] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2As shown, an intelligent refrigeration equipment operation monitoring system is also provided, the system comprising: An abnormal operation judgment module is used to acquire the coordinated operation data of the condenser and the high-pressure liquid storage tank, and to determine whether the operation is normal based on the coordinated operation data; A steady-state operation judgment module is used to extract the steady-state operation data of the high-pressure liquid storage tank based on the cooperative operation data if the judgment is yes.
