Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of air conditioners, and in particular to an energy storage air conditioner. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous growth of global energy demand and the rapid development of renewable energy, the energy storage industry is gradually becoming an important part of the energy field. As a key technology for energy conversion and storage, energy storage technology can solve the problems of volatility and intermittency of renewable energy, improve energy utilization efficiency, improve energy supply and energy security, reduce dependence on traditional energy, and promote the transformation and upgrading of energy structure.
[0003] Air-cooled air conditioning systems are generally used to cool energy storage devices. However, compared with air-cooled air conditioning systems, liquid-cooled air conditioning systems have lower energy consumption, and liquid-cooled air conditioning systems have gradually become the main temperature control equipment for energy storage devices. The liquid-cooled air conditioning system includes a refrigerant circuit formed by a compressor, a condenser, an evaporator, and a throttling element, so that the evaporator can be cooled. The liquid-cooled air conditioning system can also include a liquid cooling circuit, which exchanges heat with the refrigerant circuit to transfer the cold generated by the evaporator to the energy storage device to cool the energy storage device.
[0004] However, due to the principle of thermal expansion and contraction of liquid in a liquid cooling circuit, the volume of the liquid in the liquid cooling circuit will change with changes in temperature. When the temperature is low, the volume of the liquid in the liquid cooling circuit becomes smaller, and the system will report a liquid shortage fault, reminding maintenance personnel to replenish the liquid. In order to save maintenance costs, an automatic liquid replenishing device is necessary; when the temperature returns to room temperature, the volume of the liquid in the liquid cooling circuit increases, and excessive liquid pressure in the liquid cooling circuit will also cause the air conditioner to fail to work. Therefore, automatic liquid discharge is required. Therefore, the present application proposes an energy storage air conditioner. Summary of the invention
