For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood by specific circumstances.
[0031] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0032] This embodiment relates to a Figure 1 The water supply system based on the heat pump system is shown.
[0033] In a specific embodiment, the water supply system includes a first heat pump working medium circulation loop, an external water replenishment subsystem, a liquid collection tank water replenishment subsystem and a flash tank water replenishment subsystem.
[0034] The first heat pump working medium circulation loop includes an evaporator 110, a flash tank 120, a water vapor compressor 130, a condenser 140 and a liquid collecting tank 150. The evaporator 110, the flash tank 120, the water vapor compressor 130, the condenser 140 and the liquid collecting tank 150 are sequentially connected according to the flow direction of the natural working medium water to form the first heat pump working medium circulation loop. In some embodiments, the liquid collecting tank 150 and the evaporator 110 are connected through an expansion pipe 152, and an expansion valve 154 is provided on the expansion pipe 152. A stop valve 250 may be further provided on the expansion pipe 152.
[0035] The water supply system based on the heat pump system involved in this embodiment uses natural working medium water as the circulating working medium of the system, effectively recovers waste heat from the waste heat source, and provides high-temperature outlet water for users, and the outlet water temperature can reach above 120° C. At the same time, the use of natural working medium water as the circulating working medium of the system avoids the destructive effect of chlorofluorocarbon artificial synthetic working medium on the environment, effectively protects the environment, and achieves the effect of energy saving, emission reduction and environmental protection.
[0036] When the first heat pump working medium circulation loop as shown in the figure works, the natural working medium water of the heat pump is heated in the evaporator 110 to become a gas-liquid mixture or complete water vapor, and flows into the flash tank 120. Subsequently, the flashed water vapor flows into the water vapor compressor 130 and is compressed into high-temperature and high-pressure water vapor. The high-temperature and high-pressure water vapor releases heat in the condenser 140 to become condensate. After the condensate flows into the liquid collecting tank 150, it flows through the expansion valve 154 through the expansion pipe 152 to expand, cool and reduce pressure, and then flows into the evaporator 110. The first heat pump working medium circulation loop can realize the function of taking heat from the heat source to the high-temperature end. However, if the natural working medium water in the evaporator 110 is not completely heated to a gaseous state, it is easy to be stored in the flash tank 120 in the form of gas-liquid two-phase, which will cause insufficient natural working medium water flow in the system over time.
[0037] In the embodiment shown in the figure, water replenishment of the water supply system based on the heat pump system can be achieved through an external water replenishment subsystem, a liquid collection tank water replenishment subsystem and a flash tank water replenishment subsystem.
[0038] The external water replenishment subsystem includes an external water pipe 210 , which is connected to the water vapor compressor 130 .
[0039] The liquid collecting tank water replenishment subsystem includes a liquid collecting tank water replenishment pipe 220 , one end of which is connected to the liquid collecting tank 150 , and the other end of which is connected to the water vapor compressor 130 .
[0040] The flash tank water replenishment subsystem includes a flash tank water replenishment pipe 230, one end of which is connected to the flash tank 120, and the other end of which is connected to the water vapor compressor 130. In some embodiments, the flash tank water replenishment pipe 230 is further provided with a water spray pump 232.
[0041] In some embodiments, the external water pipe 210, the liquid collecting tank water supply pipe 220 and / or the flash tank water supply pipe 230 are connected to the compression chamber of the water vapor compressor 130. A stop valve 250 may be further provided on the external water pipe 210, the liquid collecting tank water supply pipe 220 and / or the flash tank water supply pipe 230.
[0042] In the embodiment shown in the figure, the external water pipe 210, the liquid collecting tank water supply pipe 220 and the flash tank water supply pipe 230 are all connected to the compression chamber of the water vapor compressor 130 through the compression chamber water supply pipe 240, and a stop valve 250 is provided on the compression chamber water supply pipe 240.
[0043] When the external water replenishment subsystem is working, the natural working medium water can flow into the compression chamber of the water vapor compressor 130 through the external water pipe 210 and the compression chamber water replenishment pipe 240 in sequence, and the water replenishment amount of the external water replenishment subsystem can be controlled by adjusting the opening of the stop valve 250 arranged on the external water pipe 210 and / or the compression chamber water replenishment pipe 240. External water replenishment has the advantages of low water replenishment temperature, good cooling effect and easy control of water replenishment amount.
[0044] When the liquid collecting tank water replenishment subsystem is working, the natural working medium water in the liquid collecting tank 150 flows into the compression chamber of the water vapor compressor 130 through the liquid collecting tank water replenishment pipe 220 and the compression chamber water replenishment pipe 240. By adjusting the opening of the stop valve 250 arranged on the liquid collecting tank water replenishment pipe 220 and / or the compression chamber water replenishment pipe 240, the water replenishment amount of the liquid collecting tank water replenishment subsystem can be controlled. The natural working medium water of the liquid collecting tank water replenishment subsystem comes from the liquid collecting tank 150, which has high temperature and high pressure, and can realize automatic water replenishment of the water working medium. When the exhaust pressure of the water vapor compressor 130 increases or decreases, the required water replenishment amount also increases or decreases accordingly. At this time, the pressure in the liquid collecting tank 150 will also increase or decrease, forming a self-balance of water replenishment. The liquid collecting tank water replenishment subsystem does not require power equipment to achieve self-balance of water replenishment, and at the same time has the advantages of high water replenishment temperature and large water replenishment amount, which can improve the overall heating capacity and energy efficiency of the system.
[0045] When the flash tank water replenishment subsystem is working, the natural working medium water of the flash tank 120 flows into the compression chamber of the water vapor compressor 130 through the flash tank water replenishment pipe 230 and the compression chamber water replenishment pipe 240. The water replenishment amount of the flash tank water replenishment subsystem can be controlled by adjusting the opening of the stop valve 250 arranged on the flash tank water replenishment pipe 230 and / or the compression chamber water replenishment pipe 240. The water spray pump 232 arranged on the flash tank water replenishment pipe 230 can transport the water of the flash tank 120 to the water vapor compressor 130. The flash tank water replenishment subsystem has the advantages of quick water replenishment amount control and timely water replenishment amount change.
[0046] In some embodiments, the water supply system based on the heat pump system further includes a drain pipe 260 and a drain stop valve 262, the drain pipe 260 is connected to the liquid collecting tank 150, and the drain stop valve 262 is arranged on the drain pipe 260. The drain pipe 260 and the drain stop valve 262 can be used to discharge part of the water medium in the liquid collecting tank 150.
[0047] In some embodiments, the water supply system based on the heat pump system further includes a second heat pump working medium circulation loop, and the second heat pump working medium circulation loop includes a first bypass pipe 310 and a second bypass pipe 320. The two ends of the first bypass pipe 310 are respectively connected to the liquid collecting tank 150 and the flash tank 120, and the two ends of the second bypass pipe 320 are respectively connected to the flash tank 120 and the evaporator 110. The first bypass pipe 310 may be provided with an expansion valve 154 and / or a stop valve 250. The second bypass pipe 320 may be provided with a circulating pump 322 and / or a stop valve 250.
[0048] In the embodiment shown in the figure, when the natural working medium water flow in the first heat pump working medium circulation loop is insufficient, the natural working medium water can be circulated through the second heat pump working medium circulation loop. When the first heat pump working medium circulation loop is working, the stop valve 250 on the first bypass pipe 310 and the second bypass pipe 320 is opened, and the stop valve 250 provided on the expansion pipe 152 between the liquid collecting tank 150 and the evaporator 110 is closed. At this time, the natural working medium water flowing out of the liquid collecting tank 150 flows into the flash tank 120 through the first bypass pipe 310, and then flows into the evaporator 110 through the second bypass pipe 320.
[0049] In such Figure 1 In the water supply system based on the heat pump system shown, the heat pump system mainly includes a first heat pump working fluid circulation loop and a second heat pump working fluid circulation loop. The water replenishment subsystem includes an external water replenishment subsystem, a liquid collecting tank water replenishment subsystem and a flash tank water replenishment subsystem. Whether the first heat pump working fluid circulation loop or the second heat pump working fluid circulation loop is working, the external water replenishment subsystem, the liquid collecting tank water replenishment subsystem and the flash tank water replenishment subsystem can be used in combination as needed. By adopting a multi-cycle and multiple water replenishment method design, the water supply system based on the heat pump system can be adjusted according to the operating status and on-site conditions during actual use, making the water supply system based on the heat pump system more feasible.
[0050] The above specific embodiments further illustrate the purpose, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the present invention in detail. It should be understood that the above are only specific embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
