[0028] 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 of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an embodiment of the utility model provides a ground source heat pump system, the energy storage power station includes a plurality of energy storage cabinets 10, each energy storage cabinet 10 is provided with a heat exchanger 11, and the ground source heat pump system includes: a heat pump air conditioner; an inlet pipeline, one end of the inlet pipeline is connected to the input end of the heat exchanger 11 of the plurality of energy storage cabinets 10, and the other end of the inlet pipeline is arranged in the output end of the heat pump air conditioner; an outlet pipeline, one end of the outlet pipeline is connected to the output end of the heat exchanger 11 of the plurality of energy storage cabinets 10, and the other end of the outlet pipeline is arranged in the input end of the heat pump air conditioner; wherein the plurality of heat exchangers 11, the inlet pipeline and the outlet pipeline together form a first loop.

[0030] By applying the technical solution of the utility model, a plurality of heat exchange elements 11, a liquid inlet pipeline and a liquid outlet pipeline are jointly formed into a first loop, and the heat pump air conditioner 1 increases or decreases the temperature in the energy storage cabinet 10 by performing heat exchange with the liquid in the first loop. By setting the above structure, the heat pump air conditioner 1 only needs to perform heat exchange with the liquid in the liquid inlet pipeline and the liquid outlet pipeline to achieve temperature regulation of the plurality of energy storage cabinets 10, so that too many air conditioning components are not required, thereby reducing the cost of temperature control.

[0031] In the present application, the heat pump air conditioner increases or decreases the temperature in the energy storage cabinet 10 by exchanging heat with the liquid in the first circuit, thereby ensuring that the energy storage cabinet 10 operates at a safe and stable temperature.

[0032] Furthermore, the liquid inlet pipeline includes a main liquid inlet pipe 21 and a plurality of liquid inlet branches 22 connected to the main liquid inlet pipe 21, the liquid outlet pipeline includes a main liquid outlet pipe 31 and a plurality of liquid outlet branches 32 connected to the main liquid outlet pipe 31, the heat exchange element 11, the liquid inlet branch pipe 22 and the liquid outlet branch pipe 32 are arranged one by one, and the two ends of the heat exchange element 11 are respectively connected to the liquid inlet branch pipe 22 and the liquid outlet branch pipe 32, and the heat pump air conditioner 1 can perform heat exchange with the liquid in the main liquid inlet pipe 21 and the main liquid outlet pipe 31. By setting the above structure, the heat pump air conditioner 1 only needs to perform heat exchange with the liquid in the main liquid inlet pipe 21 and the main liquid outlet pipe 31 to achieve temperature control of multiple energy storage cabinets 10, which can reduce the production cost of the device, thereby facilitating the batch installation of the device.

[0033] Specifically, the heat pump air conditioner 1 includes: a heat pump main unit 40 and a geothermal unit 50. The geothermal unit 50 has a second circuit. The heat pump main unit 40 has a first heat exchanger 41 and a second heat exchanger 42. The heat pump main unit 40 exchanges heat with the liquid in the total liquid inlet pipe and the total liquid outlet pipe through the first heat exchanger 41, and the heat pump main unit 40 exchanges heat with the geothermal unit 50 through the second heat exchanger 42. By setting the above structure, the heat exchange with the heat exchanger can be realized by using the surface energy, so that the temperature of the energy storage cabinet 10 can be controlled by using green energy, which can not only protect the environment to a certain extent and meet the environmental protection requirements of green energy, but also reduce the cost of temperature control. In addition, the geothermal unit 50 usually has a long service life, so the maintenance cost can be saved accordingly.

[0034] Furthermore, the heat pump host 40 further includes: a compressor 43, a four-way valve 44, and a throttle valve 45. The compressor 43, the four-way valve 44, and the throttle valve 45 together form a third circuit. The third circuit exchanges heat with the first circuit through the first heat exchanger 41, and the third circuit exchanges heat with the second circuit through the second heat exchanger 42. The compressor 43 can work on the refrigerant in the third circuit so as to heat exchange the temperature of the second circuit with the temperature in the first circuit.

[0035] Specifically, the geothermal unit 50 includes a buried pipe 51, which is buried in the surface layer. In the present application, the buried pipe 51 is set in the soil to exchange heat with the soil. A plurality of mounting holes are set in the soil. Specifically, the buried pipe 51 may include a plurality of groups of double U-shaped buried pipes set in the mounting holes. The double U-shaped buried pipes include U-shaped elbows and corrugated heat exchange pipes. Heat exchange pipes are set at the ends of the elbows. Fillers are filled between the heat exchange pipes and the hole walls of the mounting holes. The heat exchange pipes are vertical heat exchange pipes. In the present embodiment, the heat exchange pipes are made of a new type of corrosion-resistant, high thermal conductivity, and lightweight material, and the heat exchange pipes are in the shape of corrugated pipes to increase the heat exchange area, thereby jointly improving the heat exchange capacity of the buried pipes 51 when the ground source heat pump main unit 40 is used. Specifically, the elbow is set at the bottom of the installation hole. The elbow is used as a fitting to connect the heat exchange tube. After the vertical heat exchange tube and the elbow are installed, the hole is immediately sealed with a composite backfill material. The composite backfill material uses a mixed slurry of original slurry, bentonite and fine sand (or cement), and then a high-pressure mud pump is used to pressurize the bottom to ensure the compactness of the backfill. Among them, the thermal conductivity of the filler material is greater than or equal to the thermal conductivity of the soil, which can avoid affecting the heat exchange efficiency of the water and soil in the heat exchange tube.

[0036] Furthermore, the geothermal energy unit 50 further includes a first water pump 52, a first filter 53 and a first one-way valve 54. The first water pump 52, the first filter 53, the buried pipe 51 and the first one-way valve 54 together form a second loop.

[0037] Specifically, the geothermal heat pump system also includes a second water pump 61, a second filter 62 and a second one-way valve 63. The second water pump 61, the second filter 62, the buried pipe 51, the second one-way valve 63, multiple heat exchange components 11, the liquid inlet pipeline and the liquid outlet pipeline together form a second loop.

[0038] In the present application, during summer cooling, the compressor 43 performs work on the refrigerant to perform vapor-liquid conversion. The heat is absorbed into the refrigerant by the evaporation of the refrigerant, and the low-temperature and low-pressure gaseous refrigerant is converted into a high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant. The temperature deep underground is low at this time, and condensation is performed in the heat exchanger on the ground source side. The heat is transferred to the ground source side.

[0039] During winter heating, the refrigerant is heated and evaporated into gas, and the compressor 43 works on the refrigerant, converting the low-temperature and low-pressure gaseous refrigerant into high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant. The refrigerant condenses in the first heat exchanger 41, transferring heat to the first circuit.

[0040] Furthermore, the outside of the liquid inlet pipeline and the liquid outlet pipeline are wrapped with insulation. By setting the above structure, it is possible to prevent the system from exchanging part of the heat from the outer wall of the pipeline with the outside during heat exchange, thereby reducing the loss during heat exchange, which is conducive to improving the heat exchange efficiency of the device to ensure the stable operation of the entire system.

[0041] Specifically, the liquid in the first loop includes ethylene glycol. Since ethylene glycol has the characteristics of high efficiency and energy saving, low price, low cost, safety and reliability, the use of the above material can not only ensure the heat exchange efficiency of the device, but also further reduce the use cost of the device. Optionally, the liquid in the first loop can also be set to other substances such as water and oil. The specific setting should be selected according to the use environment of the device, as long as it can meet the use requirements of the device.

[0042] In one embodiment, the diameter of the main liquid inlet pipe 21 is larger than the diameter of the liquid inlet branch pipe 22, and the diameter of the main liquid outlet pipe 31 is larger than the diameter of the liquid outlet branch pipe 32. This arrangement can adjust the liquid flow in the liquid inlet branch pipe 22 and the liquid outlet branch pipe 32, thereby facilitating the specific adjustment of the temperature control.

[0043] By applying the technical solution of the utility model, a plurality of heat exchange elements 11, a liquid inlet pipeline and a liquid outlet pipeline are jointly formed into a first loop, and the heat pump air conditioner 1 increases or decreases the temperature in the energy storage cabinet 10 by performing heat exchange with the liquid in the first loop. By setting the above structure, the heat pump air conditioner 1 only needs to perform heat exchange with the liquid in the liquid inlet pipeline and the liquid outlet pipeline to achieve temperature regulation of the plurality of energy storage cabinets 10, so that too many air conditioning components are not required, thereby reducing the cost of temperature control.
