Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of heat pump control technology, and in particular to a defrosting heat pump unit, defrosting control method, device, equipment and storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, air source heat pumps commonly use four-way reversing valves as the core component for system function switching to meet the switching needs of various operating modes such as cooling, heating, and defrosting. From a thermodynamic perspective, the conventional defrosting process generally achieves refrigeration cycle operation through the reversal of the four-way valve. In winter heating conditions, the outdoor finned heat exchanger acts as an evaporator, and its surface temperature is often lower than the dew point temperature or even the freezing point of the ambient air, making it extremely prone to frost formation, which leads to a sharp drop in heat exchange efficiency. To maintain the performance of the heat pump unit, the defrosting program must be initiated periodically. At this time, the four-way reversing valve switches to the refrigeration cycle, and the high-temperature refrigerant flows to the outdoor finned heat exchanger for defrosting, while the indoor heat exchanger becomes an evaporator, absorbing heat from heated water or air. This process directly leads to an interruption of heating on the user side, resulting in significant fluctuations in water or room temperature, affecting heating comfort and system energy efficiency.

[0020] To make the technical problems solved by this application, the technical solutions adopted, and the technical effects achieved clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application are further described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature being directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature.

[0023] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the defrosting heat pump unit under heating cycle according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the defrosting heat pump unit under defrosting cycle according to an embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a defrosting heat pump unit, including: a compressor 101, a shell-and-tube heat exchanger 102, a finned heat exchanger 103, a heat source heat exchanger 104, a gas-liquid separator 105, a first throttle valve 106, a second throttle valve 107, a first flow path control valve 108, a second flow path control valve 109, a third flow path control valve 110, and a controller; The exhaust port of the compressor 101 is connected to the inlet of the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 102; in the heating cycle path, the outlet of the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 102 is connected to the inlet of the finned heat exchanger 103 through the first throttle valve 106; in the defrosting cycle path, the outlet of the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 102 is connected to the inlet of the finned heat exchanger 103 through the first flow path control valve 108; in the heating cycle path, the outlet of the finned heat exchanger 103 is connected to the inlet of the gas-liquid separator 105 through the second flow path control valve 109; in the defrosting cycle path, the outlet of the finned heat exchanger 103 is connected to the inlet of the heat source heat exchanger 104 through the second throttle valve 107, and the outlet of the heat source heat exchanger 104 is connected to the inlet of the gas-liquid separator 105 through the third flow path control valve 110; the outlet of the gas-liquid separator 105 is connected to the suction port of the compressor 101. The controller is communicatively connected to the first throttle valve 106, the second throttle valve 107, the first flow path control valve 108, the second flow path control valve 109, and the third flow path control valve 110.

[0024] During the heating cycle, the high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant gas discharged from the compressor 101 first enters the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 102, where it exchanges heat with the circulating water on the user side, releasing condensation heat to achieve continuous and stable heating to the user side. Subsequently, the refrigerant flows through the first throttling valve 106 for pressure reduction and flow throttling, transforming into a low-temperature, low-pressure gas-liquid two-phase state before entering the finned heat exchanger 103. At this time, the finned heat exchanger 103 absorbs heat from the environment, and the refrigerant evaporates into gas. Finally, the refrigerant vapor enters the gas-liquid separator 105 through the second flow path control valve 109, and the separated gas is drawn into the compressor 101, completing the entire heating cycle.

[0025] When it is determined that a defrosting cycle needs to be initiated, the controller opens the first flow path control valve 108 and closes the first throttling valve 106, allowing the high-temperature refrigerant flowing from the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 102 to flow directly to the finned heat exchanger 103 via the first flow path control valve 108 without throttling. The high-temperature refrigerant entering the finned heat exchanger 103 can directly heat the fin surface, achieving rapid and efficient defrosting. The defrosted refrigerant then flows through the second throttling valve 107 for appropriate throttling and pressure reduction, and then enters the specially designed heat source heat exchanger 104. The heat source heat exchanger 104 can absorb heat from the environment to ensure complete refrigerant evaporation. Finally, the refrigerant vapor enters the gas-liquid separator 105 through the third flow path control valve 110 and returns to the compressor 101, completing the defrosting cycle. In this embodiment, the defrosting cycle is a parallel path independent of the heating cycle. When defrosting is started, the refrigerant can defrost the outdoor finned heat exchanger through this path alone, without having to switch the main cycle's operating mode through the four-way reversing valve. This can achieve continuous heating without having to switch the system to a cooling cycle for the defrosting process, thus avoiding reverse heat absorption from the heated medium for defrosting and resulting in energy waste.

[0026] In one embodiment, the first flow path control valve 108, the second flow path control valve 109, and the third flow path control valve 110 are all two-way valves. In this embodiment, the use of two-way valves can simplify the pipeline layout and facilitate precise control of the refrigerant flow direction.

[0027] Figure 3 This is a schematic flowchart of the anti-frost control method provided in the embodiments of this application, as shown below. Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment provides a method for controlling frost suppression, including: S301. Obtain the operating parameter set and preset parameter set of the defrosting heat pump unit; wherein, the operating parameter set includes: motor operating power, ambient humidity, continuous heating operation time and the attenuation rate of current operating energy consumption compared with the initial operating energy consumption; the preset parameter set includes: motor power growth rate threshold, ambient humidity baseline value, defrosting operation time threshold, energy consumption attenuation rate baseline value, and baseline power in frost-free state.

[0028] S302. Based on the operating parameter set and the preset parameter set, determine the relative power growth coefficient, relative ambient humidity coefficient, relative operating time coefficient, and relative energy consumption attenuation coefficient. Further, S302 includes: S3021. Determine the motor power growth rate based on the growth rate of the motor operating power relative to the reference power in the frost-free state, and determine the relative power growth coefficient based on the ratio of the motor power growth rate to the motor power growth rate threshold.

[0029] In one embodiment, the step of determining the motor power growth rate in S3021 based on the growth rate of the motor operating power relative to the reference power in the frost-free state is configured as the ratio of the difference between the motor operating power and the reference power in the frost-free state to the reference power in the frost-free state.

[0030] Specifically, the motor power growth rate ΔP is: ΔP=(P Pbase) / Pbase×100%; Where P is the motor operating power; Pbase is the base power in frost-free conditions.

[0031] S3022. Determine the relative humidity coefficient based on the ratio of the ambient humidity to the ambient humidity reference value.

[0032] S3023. Determine the relative operating time coefficient based on the ratio of the continuous heating operation time to the defrosting operation time threshold.

[0033] S3024. Determine the relative energy consumption attenuation coefficient based on the ratio of the attenuation rate of the current operating energy consumption to the initial operating energy consumption to the benchmark value of the energy consumption attenuation rate.

[0034] S303. Determine the defrosting cycle index based on the relative power growth coefficient, relative ambient humidity coefficient, relative operating time coefficient, and relative energy consumption decay coefficient. Specifically, S303 includes: S3031. The relative power growth coefficient is weighted according to the preset power growth rate weight to obtain the weighted relative power growth coefficient.

[0035] S3032. The relative humidity coefficient is weighted according to the preset environmental humidity weight to obtain the weighted relative humidity coefficient.

[0036] S3033. The relative running time coefficient is weighted according to the preset running time weight to obtain the weighted relative running time coefficient.

[0037] S3034. The relative energy consumption attenuation coefficient is weighted according to the preset energy consumption attenuation weight to obtain the weighted relative energy consumption attenuation coefficient.

[0038] S3035. The weighted relative power growth coefficient, the weighted relative ambient humidity coefficient, the weighted relative operating time coefficient, and the weighted relative energy consumption decay coefficient are summed to obtain the defrosting cycle index; wherein the sum of the preset power growth rate weight, the preset ambient humidity weight, the preset operating time weight, and the preset energy consumption decay weight is 1. It should be noted that the preset power growth rate weight is greater than any one of the preset ambient humidity weight, the preset operating time weight, and the preset energy consumption decay weight.

[0039] In one specific embodiment, the anti-frost cycle index is: FI=α×(ΔP / ΔPth)+β×(H / Hbase)+γ×(t / tcycle)+δ×(ΔCOP / ΔCOPbase); Wherein, ΔP is the motor power growth rate; ΔPth is the motor power growth rate threshold; H is the ambient humidity; Hbase is the ambient humidity baseline value; t is the continuous heating operation time; tcycle is the defrost operation time threshold; ΔCOP is the energy consumption attenuation rate of the current operation compared to the initial operation energy consumption; ΔCOPbase is the energy consumption attenuation rate baseline value; α is the preset power growth rate weight; β is the preset ambient humidity weight; γ is the preset operation time weight; δ is the preset energy consumption attenuation weight; here α+β+γ+δ=1. In this embodiment, by adjusting the preset power growth rate weight α, the preset ambient humidity weight β, the preset operation time weight γ, and the preset energy consumption attenuation weight δ, the contribution of different influencing factors in the decision-making is ensured. Generally, the preset power growth rate weight α, which directly reflects the load change, is given the highest weight.

[0040] In one embodiment, the operating parameter set and preset parameter set of the defrosting heat pump unit are obtained. In the preset parameter set, the motor power growth rate threshold ΔPth is set to 15%, the ambient humidity baseline value Hbase is set to 60%, the defrosting operation time threshold tcycle is set to 60 min, the energy consumption attenuation rate baseline value ΔCOPbase is set to 20%, and the baseline power Pbase in the frost-free state is set to 0.15 kW. During operation, the motor operating power P, ambient humidity H (80%), continuous heating operation time t (45 min), and the attenuation rate ΔCOP of the current operating energy consumption compared to the initial operating energy consumption are collected (10%). Based on the growth rate of the motor operating power P relative to the baseline power Pbase in the frost-free state, the motor power growth rate ΔP is determined to be 12%. In this embodiment, the preset power growth rate weight α is set to 0.45, the preset ambient humidity weight β is set to 0.25, the preset operation time weight γ is set to 0.15, and the preset energy consumption attenuation weight δ is set to 0.15, at which point α+β+γ+δ=1. Based on the above parameters, the defrosting cycle index FI is determined to be 0.8805.

[0041] S304. Compare the anti-frost cycle index with the preset anti-frost activation threshold.

[0042] S305. When the defrosting cycle index is greater than the preset defrosting start threshold, it indicates that frost has significantly affected the working efficiency and stability of the defrosting heat pump unit, and the defrosting cycle needs to be started.

[0043] In one embodiment, the preset defrost activation threshold is set to 0.8. The defrost cycle index FI, determined earlier, is 0.8805, which is compared with the preset defrost activation threshold. At this time, the defrost cycle index FI is greater than the preset defrost activation threshold, indicating that frost formation has a significant impact on the working efficiency and stability of the defrost heat pump unit, and the defrost cycle needs to be activated.

[0044] In this embodiment, by integrating four-dimensional information of power, humidity, time and energy efficiency for comprehensive control, the defrosting action can be triggered in time when the frost layer just begins to affect the performance of the defrosting heat pump unit, but before it causes a serious decrease in efficiency or operational risks. This avoids unnecessary frequent defrosting or passive defrosting after a serious decrease in performance, and optimizes the energy consumption of the defrosting process while maintaining the continuity and stability of heating to the maximum extent.

The first processing module 402 is used to determine the relative power growth coefficient, relative ambient humidity coefficient, relative operating time coefficient, and relative energy consumption attenuation coefficient based on the operating parameter set and the preset parameter set. The second processing module 403 is used to determine the defrosting cycle index based on the relative power growth coefficient, relative ambient humidity coefficient, relative operating time coefficient, and relative energy consumption attenuation coefficient. The judgment module 404 is used to compare the defrosting cycle index with a preset defrosting start threshold. The execution module 405 is used to start the anti-frost cycle when the anti-frost cycle index is greater than the preset anti-frost start threshold.
