Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of energy storage cabinets, in particular to a thermal management device for an industrial and commercial energy storage cabinet PCS (energy storage converter). Background Art
[0002] At present, industrial and commercial energy storage cabinets PCS are core components or equipment in the industrial and commercial energy storage process. In the energy storage system, they are responsible for converting direct current into alternating current or vice versa. The power density is usually high, and its heat dissipation method is an important aspect related to its performance and reliability.
[0003] There are currently two main PCS heat dissipation methods, and the heat dissipation media are divided into air cooling and liquid cooling; in addition to air cooling and liquid cooling, there are other special heat dissipation methods, such as the use of phase change materials.
[0004] The advantages of air-cooled PCS are: simpler than liquid cooling system, easier to install and maintain, lower cost of air cooling, no complicated liquid cooling system facilities and less pipeline space occupied, no risk of leakage of liquid cooling system; suitable for areas with general power density and low ambient temperature.
[0005] The disadvantages of air-cooled PCS are: high noise, the air-cooled system needs to use fans to accelerate heat dissipation, strong environmental dependence, and when the ambient temperature is relatively poor, the heat dissipation effect may be reduced.
[0006] The advantages of liquid-cooled PCS are: high heat dissipation efficiency, liquid cooling system can remove temperature more quickly than air cooling system; low noise, liquid cooling noise is generally lower, which helps to provide a quieter working environment; temperature control is more stable, which helps to solve problems such as equipment failure due to excessive temperature, and has a wider range of environmental adaptability.
[0007] The disadvantages of liquid-cooled PCS are: complex design and installation. The liquid cooling system requires the design and installation of coolers, cooling pipes and other facilities, which is more complicated than the air cooling system, so the cost is also higher than the air cooling system; maintenance is difficult, and the liquid coolant needs to be replaced and the pipes need to be maintained regularly; if not maintained in time, the stability and life of the liquid cooling system will be affected.
[0008] Heat dissipation can better control temperature, adapt to higher power density and ambient temperature, and is suitable for long-term high-load operation conditions. The disadvantage is that an additional liquid cooling unit or refrigeration system is required, which increases maintenance costs, is relatively complex to design and install, and has the risk of leakage or failure of the liquid cooling system. Therefore, in order to reduce costs, facilitate maintenance, and meet high-power operation, the existing industrial and commercial energy storage cabinets are optimized to increase the air volume at the PCS air inlet and reduce the air inlet temperature; reduce the operating failure rate of the equipment, thereby achieving stable operation and revenue of the equipment; use existing product equipment for automatic control, add 2-way ventilation to the PCS air inlet; automatically control the PCS air inlet through the overall thermal management strategy; and reduce energy consumption.

[0017] When industrial and commercial energy storage PCS equipment is running at high power, it generates a lot of heat.

[0018] Among them, each air-conditioning hood assembly 4 includes an air-conditioning hood shell 41, and five air volume adjustment gear mounting holes 411 are opened from top to bottom on the side of each air-conditioning hood shell 41 away from the air outlet of the corresponding integrated industrial air conditioner 3. The inclined upper end of each inclined wind shield plate 42 is bolted to any of the five corresponding air volume adjustment gear mounting holes 411, and each inclined wind shield plate 5 forms an acute angle with the horizontal plane, and the inclined surface of each inclined wind shield plate 5 is connected to the air outlet of the corresponding integrated industrial air conditioner 3.
[0019] According to the principle of cold air sinking, 5 exhaust air volume adjustment gear mounting holes are set. The operator can adjust the installation positions of the inclined wind shield 42 and the air conditioning hood shell 41 according to different ambient temperatures and working conditions as well as different temperatures in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and further adjust the amount of air delivered to the PCS air inlet side by the integrated industrial air conditioner 3 through the corresponding PCS air supply duct 5.
[0020] A plurality of ventilation holes 43 are provided on the inclined surface of each inclined wind shield plate 42 , and a plurality of air outlet holes for supplying cold air to dissipate heat to electronic components other than the PCS 8 in the energy storage cabinet 1 are provided on the top and bottom of each air conditioning hood shell 41 .
[0021] Each PCS air supply duct 5 uses a flame-retardant corrugated pipe with a smooth inner wall. The corrugated pipe is retractable and easy to install; the flame retardant grade reaches UL94-V0 grade.
[0022] In this solution, the installation positions of the two integrated industrial air conditioners 3 are synchronously symmetrical, meeting the requirements of symmetrical output of air conditioning cooling and heat dissipation.
